as a BQ debater I can’t image writing a case for every tournament
how do policy debaters do the same topic all year
i’d die
any policy debaters please reblog and share your opinions
#i feel like the whole point is to like think about the topic as the year goes on?#because it's like philosophy#i've done pf before too#always wrote my cases like the morning of#it was a nightmare#plus you had to use actual evidence??#ew#big questions debate#bq

Choose something unique--the judges will get tired of hearing the same types of speeches every round.
People like to hear about things that are slightly taboo or morbid, so I’d say number one sounds good.
Number 3 will perk up the ears of fellow students and maybe younger judges because it sounds like a meme. Ragnorak would have the same effect bc if its reference to pop culture. Even though these two wouldn’t be about the meme or the movie, that connection to what people like will be made and might grab some people’s interest. Even so, remember that it’s the judges we care about, not fellow competitors.
Personally, I think number 1 sounds really interesting, but they’d all be good!
I need your guys help choosing a topic for my informative speech
1) History and uses of Belladonna (nightshade)
2) Ragnorak (not the movie)
3) the 4 horsemen
4) History of Hellhounds
Or
5) Gashadokuro
Please help

I know this is a long shot, as the speech and debate community here is virtually nonexistent, but I need help:
Tomorrow afternoon I”m judging a junior high congress round for the first time, and I don’t know how to do that. I’ve only ever debated congress in class, never at tourneys.
I’m very tech over truth (ie, dropped arguments are a big no-no), if that affects anything.

Hey! I want to follow active blogs about Speech and Debate.
I’m pretty sure the community is pretty small here on tumblr, but if anyone has an active account, I’ll follow you if you interact with this post and have a mainly speech and debate blog!!

speech & debate culture is paying $5 for a single slice of cold pizza, recognizing that it tastes like cardboard, and going back to buy 4 more slices anyways
