How to Flow in LD
You may or may not get far with the standard system of flowing in policy debate with its awkward 8-speech design... try this method. It's easy to keep track of on-aff-case arguments, off-neg-case arguments, and you get to hold your legal pad normally! Score. :) This is an example of an LD flow pad, actual notes from the final round at Nationals between Kirsten Flewelling (aff) and Caleb Winn (neg).
