Question Box Each day you will be expected
to come up with questions during morning lectures and bring them to your afternoon lab.
We will pool the questions in the box anonymously and address some of them right at the start.
Trust that we will try our best to answer all your questions, even if we do it later in the week.

Flowing Knowing what arguments the other team made and
answering them is crucial to being a good debater. In order to do this, you MUST flow. (“Flow or Die” in debate). I will model, then we will practice:

The Claim GameThe Claim Game One of the easiest ways to
win in debate (and in arguments generally) is to point out when someone is B***S****ing.
Throughout camp we will be playing the claim game in lab.
Everyone starts out with “0” points and points are bad. You do not want points.
Each time you make an ARGUMENT (or CLAIM) you have to have a REASON (say WHY) and cite some EVIDENCE.
Rules You can call out
anyone in lab who you think has made an unwarranted claim: i.e. they say
something and do not have a because statement or any evidence.
The lab leader will judge whether they get a point.
The person with the fewest points on Sunday wins the LAMDL Claim Game Prize.

The 1NC• 1NC – Case Argument– Some part of the Aff. case is
wrong; – There is no problem or the
problem will fix itself; – Can also argue that aff. Case
makes problem worse.________________________________________
• Topicality– The Aff. plan is not the sort of action
required by the resolution.• Disadvantages
– The Aff. plan cases bad things to happen (these bad effects outweigh the good effects).
• Counterplans– A different proposal for how to solve the
problem; must show why the Aff. case is a bad idea.
• Critiques– Argue that the Aff. should be rejected
because it uses bad ideas, research, or because the logic is no good.
• 1Nc – Case argument• The Alliance will survive without
pulling out troops (Green ‘10; Chanlett ‘10; Twining ‘10; Glosserman ‘10; McCormack ‘10; Auslin ’10; Twining ‘10; Green ‘10).
• Japan will not rearm (Lawless ‘10; CSIS ‘10; Kulacki ‘10; etc.)
• Alliance split will cause instability (Madsen ‘10; CSIS ‘10; Bandow ‘10; etc.).
• Nuclear weapons will deter war in Asia (Garvin ’10; Garvin ‘10, etc.).
• Answer to 1AC Advantages • Banning expansion would solve
Dungong (Center for BioDiversity ’10, etc.).
• Disadvantages: • Alliance Turn (DA) • Asian War Disadvantage (DA)• Civil-Military Relations
Disadvantage (DA)• Primacy Disadvantage (DA)
![Page 31: LAMDL USC Debate Camp](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167ab550346895ddcfa25/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The 2NC (Just FYI)• Extending part of the
1NC– Must extend some but
not all of the arguments from the 1NC; arguments my change in form; no requirements to cover all the arguments.
• New Arguments– Not common but
sometimes the 2NC will make entirely new arguments
• Extending parts of the 1NC Extend U.S. Japan alliance is
strong; Japan will not rearm; Alliance split will cause instability; nuclear weapons deter war; and/or answer to Dunong advantage.
• New arguments– Whichever combination of the
disadvantages you think strongest.
– Primacy DA– Alliance Turn (DA)– No Alternative (DA)– Asian War (DA)– Civil-Military Relations (DA)
![Page 32: LAMDL USC Debate Camp](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062814/568167ab550346895ddcfa25/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The 1NR (Just FYI)• Extending other 1NC
arguments.– Kind of an extension of the
2NC; second speech in the negative block; must extend different but complementary arguments from the 2NC; not allowed to make new arguments.
• Pick and choose.– No requirement to extend
all the arguments of the 1NC; Aff. Can extend arguments from the 2Ac that are not answered so be sure and block them;
• Extending the 1NC– Read from answers
and extensions. Address the arguments of the Affirmative 2AC and block the 1AR.
• Pick and choose– Pick the arguments
which are strongest.

2NR (Just FYI)• Overcoming the presumption
of the 2AR– Must be persuasive to
convince judge; refute all arguments made in the 1AR; judge should understand negative position as well as reasons why neg. should win each round.
• Telling the story– Put all the arguments together
into a story explaining which arguments the negative is winning and why; this overview should be short yet comprehensive
• Overcoming the presumption of the 2AR– Address each of the Aff.
Arguments about how moving troops to Guam is better, etc.
• Impact calculus• Timeframe, magnitude,
probability.
• Telling the story– Frame the debate, show off
your flowing skills by retracing the debate and showing (subtly) how the neg. won each round.

Types of questions for the cross
Always have some cross questions written before hand (especially in novice).
Make sure you remember what they say accurately so you can use it against them in your next speech.
Use all your time because it gives your partner time to prep. Types of questions:
Clarification What does this mean? Can you elaborate this?
Pointing out errors (flaws in logic) Can you explain the link between your harm and nuclear war in your
own words? Setting up your arguments
Can you define racism? So you agree that it is an ideology? Does it have to do with white supremacy?
