IMPORTANT : Adjudicators for N=1 rule

A lot of institutions are using university students as their judge to complete the N=1 rule. This automatically means :

  1. Your institution is covering their registration fees.
  2. They’ll be staying on the 13th floor shared dormitory with the debaters and not in rooms with other invited university judges. Unless of course you’re willing to pay their double or single room fees which is 3,200 THB and 4,500 THB respectively.
  3. That particular judge needs to stay for at least 6 preliminary rounds in order for you to break! The whole objective of enforcing n=1 rule is to encourage teachers and non-debating debaters to be more involved in the activity and help the club sustain in the long run. If you don’t want to grow more adjudicators, then at least find judges who’d stay for 6 rounds. It is very unfair on teams who managed to find people unfamiliar to debate from their own institutions, and made them adjudicate for the whole tournament. More over, it screws up the tab and that will delay the tournament!!
