| The rules: | |
| All decent debaters (regardless of whether they use arguments or not) have to know the rules! That way, you can take advantage of them, and try to exploit their loopholes. They can serve to get you out of a sticky situation, or even to place another team in such a situation. In essence, the rules are essential, and can prove to be real life savers. So read them, and make sure you understand them well. | |
