Question 1 of 4

1. Question
In the discussion on the Disadvantages [DA] and Counterplans strategy, what is meant by “opportunity cost“?
- It means there is a loss in opportunity when the affirmative's plan is too costly.
- It means voting for the affirmative leads to losing the opportunity to achieve something better.
- It argues that without ground for the negative team, there is a loss for an opportunity for the negative to present their counterplan.
- It argues the cost harm in the affirmative's plan.
- It means voting for the negative leads to losing the opportunity to achieve something better.
- It is a debate rule argument that states that there is a loss in opportunity of education because the affirmative has not given the negative ground to have a fair debate.

Question 2 of 4

2. Question
The second strategy discussed was the “Double Bind,” more specifically, running a Topicality [T] and Disadvatage [DA]. What is a double bind?
- A "Double Bind" is like argument inception. The affirmative must answer an argument within a larger argument — the Topicality within the DA.
- It is when two independent arguments attack one part of the affirmative's plan.
- It is where the affirmative is forced to accept the Topicality and Disadvantage run against their case, subsequently putting them in a "double bind."
- It is when two independent arguments negate each other. So by successfully responding to one argument, you consequently strengthen the other argument.
- It is when two parts of the affirmative's plan is challenged by means of a Topicality and DA.
- It is when the affirmative fails to respond to an argument made on their case (like Topicality or DA) and so it is values twice as much to the judge when brought up in the negative's second speech.

Question 3 of 4

3. Question
What is a Topicality?
- Topicality argues that the topic/resolution for the round inherently limits or takes away the negative's ground.
- Topicality is when the negative argues that the affirmative should re-interpret the topic/resolution.
- Topicality is when you argue for another type of debate for the topic/resolution. For example, if the affirmative declares the round a value round and the negative interprets the resolution as a fact round, they would run a Topicality.
- Topicality argues that the topic/resolution does not allow for a counterplan and therefore, the round should be voted on the disadvantage (DA).
- Topicality essentially argues that the affirmative's definition(s) take away the negative's ground.
- Topicality argues that the affirmative's plan is off-topic based on the agreed upon definitions for the round.

Question 4 of 4

4. Question
What is Aristotle’s concept of “Emergence“?
- There are no absolutes; opposition will always emerge.
- The best arguments will emerge when using logos, ethos, and pathos.
- The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
- Knowledge can only emerge when there is grounds for a debate.
- The sum of parts is greater than the whole.
- Some parts of a whole argument always emerge as the strongest; it's a pattern.
