Justin

Justin - move on from CX questions they wont answer - try to take less prep for the 2nc - most of the 2ac answers were predictable. - good block on conditionality, though it could be shorter - you need to answer the 2ac arguments in order - you skipped the impact turn once capitalism and went straight to the FW argument - answer FW in the 2nc not by saying "T bad" but by saying either you meet or that yours is better - you can't change the CP or K status in the 2nr. you are stuck with whatever you said in the 1nc. - if you want Fiscal Discipline to matter in the 2nr, you need to develop much more in the 2nc - more cards and more explicit responses to the 2ac
 * Round 10 (Tripp) **

- leave more prep than 1:30 for the 2NR -- write 2NC blocks before the debate - don't signal weakness by saying "I need to make my Virilio block better" right before the 2NC CX. Just do it outside the round. - choose ONE clear 2NR strat and frame the debate to make it outweigh
 * Round 9 (Mara) **

2AC: Topicality - make sure your c/int has standards Oil Adv: make sure you answer all their arguments. Try to work on your fluidity so you don't stop and go so much oil - better clash, more fluid Make sure to have a time allocation plan before your speech - know how much time you plan/need to spend on each flow Beware of contradicting yourself - don't read a warming impact and then warming takeouts Don't read repetitive cards in the 2AC - under time pressure, you don't need two "no warming" cards 2AR: make sure every argument serves a strategic purpose. Extending K impact turns doesn't help you if they go for the CP that solves them Commit to going for theory - don't try to split the difference with substance if you think it's your best way to win Don't spend time extending all the arguments on your advantages if they've gone for a CP that claims to solve them - make sure you win the solvency deficit first.
 * Round 8 - Thurs. 6/26 (Aff - Eli): **

- make sure you face the judge, not your computer! - Don’t need to concede 1ac impacts specifically. - Make sure to ask //questions// in CX – it’s a different art than arguing directly, but one that you should learn. - Need offense on the perm / prove that it links – don’t just talk about solvency!! - Put elections before the CP in the 1nr – much better in case you run out of time in terms of 2nr options
 * Round 5 (Tripp)**

Round 2 (Eli). 2NC: Too much stop and go in the 2NC - try to be more fluid when you're making arguments Make sure you're not just extending your impacts, but comparing both teams' impacts and explaining why yours outweigh
