Community Judging Standard - Posted by Ab_M 2016-05-18 06:44:49
The Judging Standard should define what the Pro and Con burdens are by default, and if the debaters would like to redefine the burdens, they should do that for each individual debate. Whether you deci...

I think it's pretty valid. Say there's a debate where Pro has not upheld the burden of proof (he's failed to give the judge adequate reason to vote for his proposition), but Con has also failed to giv...

maybe add something about burden of proof? "If the judge evaluates that Pro has failed to prove the resolution true, then he should award the win to Con." or something like that

Maybe even wait to calculate the values of each judgement until after the voting period?

Couldnt you remove judgements that were voted complete "vote bombs" even after judging is closed?

The problem might be partially solved if there was a period where you could judge, and during that period all previous judgements were hidden, and then after that, a period to vote on judgements, and ...

what if only posts that got 2+ "vote bomb" ratings, and no other ratings, were reassigned a value of zero?

I actually think having inexperienced voters on the site incentivizes skills besides good debate theory, like persuasiveness and good writing. You could say it judges a fuller picture of debate skills
