I once heard that a true orator is a person that makes you feel good when they smile. That element of personality is what I think is most important. 8)

Exactly. Before making an *** of myself in OO when I was filling, I saw this girl perform on MIDDLE CHILD SYNDROM with no emotion at all and I think I got ranked higher than her.
