If anyone is interested in voting and is knowledgable of CX Debate, see the Top 25 pages at ghsdebate.cjb.net or page 1 of the cross-x thread i posted above

I also hear there is an LD top 25 going around at lddebate.org, perhaps I shall post that

There are no IE rankings to my knowledge

I love that Denver East has three teams in there, and two have never done anything at any tournament. And why are Goyal/Joglekar so low, they have gone 3-2 against Jones/Jamison....and they beat all of Cheyenne East and won the Cheyenne Central Tourney

Just a weird thing to me

[MK]

Terry: this is based on voting alone, so it's like "most popular in debate." Niether Phil nor records decide the placement, you just tab the votes.....kind of like for homecoming queen................weird.

[Gook1000]

lol, records absolutely determine placings. there is complex formula that allocates prelim records, elim results, type of rounds won/lost, size of tournament, etc + voting

but anyway;

Last week's list-- the following regional tournaments were taken into consideration: I (northern), III (metro), VI (western), VIII (metro)

Denver East AG broke at DU and East/Creek earlier in the year. Denver East VE was 2nd at jeffco invite. Kent JG were consistently in the top 3 on the poll until state quals. while i still think they should be in the top 3, that's just how the votes went down

I do not pretend that this list isn't subjective however. x-apply what mayya said

[the durango kid]

I think its hilarious that Becca and Nikki keep plummeting in the poll when they keep winning.

[MRdbtr]

So, who else thinks that at least 2 of the top 5 won't break past round 4 at state??? I love how screwy Colorado judges are.

perhaps it is. but if you feel they should be higher, you're always welcome to vote...

very possible

Congrats to all the teams who broke/placed/got ribbons/qualled to state/etc over the course of the year. (Fairly) accurate results of every tournament in policy debate available on http://ghsdebate.cjb.net.
