  • I made this for my Senior Legacy project in my debate class & decided to upload it! Tijienene and Joe were super awesome to act in this for me. Tijienene's main debate event is LD, but we've also done PF together. Joe does Congress.

    I'm in LD. Debate changed so- clarification. Value debates are stupid. You should always value morality. Your value criterion should be an action not "justice" so you could say "protecting autonomy" instead. Everything is allowed in LD if you have an impartial judge, not someone who intervenes and decides what can be run and can't. I love theory! There are actually only 2 rules set in stone:
    1. Don't go over your speech time
    2. Don't stab your oppenent. All other performance responses are fine.

    If you are a novice do yourself a favor do not use utilitarianism as your criterion it is one of the most common criterion and many people will have cards against it trust me

    I'm a novice and I'm horrible at writing cases. I have the intuition, but does that mean I'll get any better at LD? Has anyone else been hopeless while they were a novice then turned out great at debating?

    • @masalamunch8540
      @masalamunch8540 10 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      You just described myself. My first novice tournament I lost every single round, and I lost 60% of my rounds that year. In my sophomore year (in experienced LD) I got second place at my first tournament and went 4-1. Don't give up, as long as you enjoy it you'll improve.

      I'm a freshman, I went into LD a novice, my first tournament this year I didn't even break. (It should also be noted that I did not do middle school debate.) I was running things too progressive for Novice Judges. However I switched schools and I just took third in Varsity Regionals and went to State today and got ninth place.

    That's tough. But I would do what you want your friend to do if you were in the same situation. Would you want to know if your significant other was cheating on you? I would! I mean, I'd rather here it from my boyfriend than from a third party, but still, I'd want to know. So, do what you feel is right. Personally, I value truth, even if it hurts.

    Okay so, I realize that this was posted about 3 years ago. And I'd just like to point out that I have gone against several Kritiks, counter-plans, topicality arguments and several other commonly known policy arguments. I'm assuming there is no longer a rule against this in LD?

    • @icowrich
      @icowrich 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Ally Pigmon It's a value debate, so there's no need for a plan. If there is no plan, a counterplan makes no sense, because there is no plan to counter. However, that isn't to say that an Affirmative team might not propose a plan as a way of illustrating benefits to the value. In that case, a counterplan becomes an appropriate (though not necessary response).

    • @briansanchez3408
      @briansanchez3408 8 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @Wunder_Buns
    @Wunder_Buns 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    on the contrary counter plans, kritiks, disads, etc are popularly encouraged in most large debate leagues and even though they are discouraged by more traditional leagues under no circumstances are you not aloud to run them.

    Although I hate to contradict OP, you may, in my experience, run any argument or debate device you wish in LD, so long as you have a judge that will buy it. Policy makers and flow judges generally will.

  • @MrCakeball
    @MrCakeball 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The value should always correspond to what the resolution is questioning. For example any resolution that uses ought, means you value morality because it is asking what is right and wrong. The value criterion should always be a verb, as to have a weighing mechanism.

    A lot of this is invalid, only a few criterion are usable such as util, structural violence, and prag. Also counter plans are perfectly legal. Additionally, winning by theory is definitely possible with a lay-judge. Spreading is discouraged however will not automatically make you lose the round.

If I didn't, the judge would be like, "Why did you forfit 2 mintues of your time? Don't do that." And I'd say nothing. So to summarize my points, DON'T DO THAT!!
