Reverse Voting Issues are for people who cannot debate. I try not to intervene in rounds. I’m also a critic of argument. Those two concepts conflict quite often. I wish I could tell you the bright line of which arguments are so terrible that they don’t really need much of an answer, and which arguments, while counterintuitive, still require solid counterarguments. My suggestions: First, try to make good arguments that have solid foundations. Then you won’t have to worry. Second, don’t count on me to debate for you. In most cases, I will not intervene. But I think parliamentary debate should not encourage judges to be 100% tabula rasa. I find debaters just make stuff up way too often, both about world events and about debate theory. So, while I try to give the debaters the benefit of the doubt, it is possible that I could intervene based on false facts or just bad arguments. Perhaps you will be able to tell by my nonverbal and verbal communication if your argument won’t be getting my ballot. Granger, Marcus Carroll College Background of the critic: Name: Marcus Granger Parli coach at Carroll College Years competing: 8 Last year competed: 2007 Years judging: 1 Background of the critic: 4 Years Parli/IEs at Carroll College. High school LD x 4 and Congress x 3. Approach of the critic to decision-making (for example, adherence to the trichotomy, stock-issues, policymaker, tabula rasa, etc.): I try to be tab, but I’ll admit that I rarely find myself voting for performance or K. I’m open to either of these, but I have yet to see performance run well in a round I’ve judged. I wouldn’t punish you for running these arguments, but do so knowing I have a higher than average threshold. I think you’d prefer that I be honest about this rather than claim to be fully tab. I’ve routinely voted for poorly run Ks than went dropped by the other team, and there’s nothing wrong with a good K. Again, the flow takes precedence and intervention might be the worst of all debate sins. 72

I sometimes see debates I don’t like, but I hate intervention most of all. It’s not your job to debate me. I would describe my concepts of debate theory as “average.” Who wouldn’t Anyway, I’ll do whatever you ask and I’m fine with meta debate. I use my concepts of theory until you offer me your own.
