Wow, a two point difference is a fairly close margin. That said, most debates are won and lost with one or two points difference.

very close, it was left to the 3rd speakers and they just so happened to keep a gun on reserve for the third. No cue cards at all!

That's a pretty good tactic. Although they try not to be, adjudicators tend to be swayed by a good third speaker because they're the most memorable when they're finalising their scores.

Aww, I hope I adjudicate a debate with your school next year. They seem prepared and well educated. Bad topic, but you still were good to lose by only 2 points. We lost by 9 last round. :P

was that in the final play off rounds or just the regional rounds? are you apart of the coburg region?

oh yes and would be great if you adjudicated, :P maybe a bit of an inside job LOL.

9 is still good i guess. always next year,,, for me at least since your in year 12.
