One thing I've tried to persuade the Dawgs to do is turn in judge reports,
relaying comments judges made about their perspective on debate. Only a
couple have come in, and some were unhelpful <"he yelled at us for
undercovering a case turn in 2AR">, but here are the ones that I think are
informative. It'd be nice if others could post such reports as well,
keeping in mind that the purpose of this is to capture adaptation-friendly
comments, rather than to relay people's rants or debaters' caricatures of
judge incompetence. In other words, if you do post such info, please screen
it for relevance and flammability.

Zompetti noted his predisposition against the Clinton disadvantage because
of myriad problems with the internal links and uniqueness. Kentucky III
