Make offensive arguments in the 2AC and the IAR, This impresses me, it shows that the aff lias actually t1iought about their case. Maybe not allnew, but if the 2AC only makes 2 answers onan overpopulation turn on the case and doesn't recognize that the neg is going for Malthus, then they deserve to lose. Don't Steele prep time. Don't act like you have some pressing issue before every speech where you have to go to the bathroom or get a drink of water as your partner writes out your overview. Tbat'sa no-no in my book.
Critiques have some impact.
