Judging Philosophy
CX
Judging approach: Policy Maker
Policy priority: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: I am a policymaker who enjoys stock issues, but I will vote on any coherent argument that your opponents fail to negate. Topicality is big for me, and I believe the resolution is given as bounds for debate. If you are going to run a counterplan, ensure you have the correct parts and know what you're doing. Signposts and roadmaps are highly appreciated. I don't care for Kritiks or philosophy. Quality of your evidence is more important than quantity. I support "new in the 2" and do not consider it abusive. Make sure your evidence matches with what the tag says it is.
