What We Will Do • 1. The Theory • 2. Practice • 3. Dealing with disasters
Why these are the most difficult speeches in LD • Your last chance to tell the judge • why you are winning • Last chance to frame the round • Last chance to tell your story
The NR 6 minutes to Glory • Start in your 1NR • Contesting the • Standard • Issue selection/ • extensions • Signposting: • Narrative/story
NC 2 • Contest the standard, • Clear the ground for victory • Refute his offense • Rebuild THE KEY offense • Extend VOTERS! • the last minute crystallization! • Tell your story/narrative
Bringing it all home! • At the end of the NR, you should • have taken control of the round
The 2 AR - 3 minutes to Victory • Like the 2NR, but less time! • Word Economy is KEY! • Remember, win/be • Competitive on a standard • Extend ONE key piece of offense! • Label and declare your offense as • VOTERS • TELL your story!
Other Tips • Link to both VC’s • “Even if you don’t buy that”, • POWERFUL rhetoric/ catch phrases you plant in • your case and use in the round. • DON’T use their language, especially • in the rebuttals! • Always begin and end with strong offensive • arguments! • Be animated, passionate, but under control • Ask for what you want fairness, the ballot,
PART II - Practice • Get out an old flow and prepare a 2NR or a 2 AR for that round. • Use all the techniques we have discussed to prepare your redo. • I will pick some one to deliver their speech and I will ask everyone else to • critique it in light of what the theory has said.
When It Storms – Salvaging a Lost Round • Situational problems: Prepare mini-responses to deal with these: • 1. You have lost your VC – prepare your 2AR or your 2 NR in light of this fact. • 2. You have lost your contentions – prepare your 2AR or your 2 NR in light of this fact. • 3. You have lost the off-case – prepare your 2AR or your 2 NR in light of this fact. • 4. He/she has proven that his/her impacts outweigh yours in magnitude. • 5. Your fear your opponent is going to go new in the two before your very “lay” judge. • 6. You judge has shown by their body language that • they are NOT buying the key contentional argument that you feel you are winning.
