POLICY
If Spreading you need to be clear or I will dock you due to unfairness
I will not consider information that is mumbled. Speak clearly please.
Please fulfill the burdens.
I Prefer Probability over Magnitude cases. If the case is highly improbable, it is most likely that it will lose (Here's looking at you, extinction cases).
K's need to be probable, and supported with empirical data. All assumptions in your K's will be negative towards your score. Analytical warrants are decent as initial Rebuttals, but they need to be empirically extended afterward.
Be creative if you can, but also be realistic... You are debating policies that are essential in real-world scenarios...not fictional universes. Keep it focused on real-world possibilities.

No spreading.
