Hi, everyone! This is Yaman Habip '23 (Second speaker) from Milton Academy and I run this page. [email protected] if you need to contact me or [email protected] for my partner. All cases we plan to run will be disclosed here 30 minutes before the round for individual tournaments because we don't have an NDCA page. I'll disclose our full cases and blocks after topics are over.

Sophomore year (2020 - 2021)

We started doing much better prep sophomore year, with good cases and well organized block files for both sides. I disclose the cut cards version of our blocks because those have links and full citations. We also started writing cases without full cut cards (just links as footnotes) but no paraphrasing. If that is confusing, just check out one of our cases.

M4A AKA UBI pharma edition. We liked this topic, recycled lots of prep. We used the same cases for the whole topic after the end of camp with slight refinement, stock on the aff and lay neg, super fun pharma collapse arg on the tech neg. Best block/frontline files of my career, worked on them for 5 months from camp until the end of M4A. It wasn't fun to go 3-3 at Tim Averill varsity, but we did fairly well in JV, reaching Octos at UKY, Quarters at Bronx, and winning Duke and Yale.

Freshman Year (2019 - 2020)

During Freshman year we used the same case for the whole topic. We also only had one block file so the disclosures here are relatively small. We didn't do anything noteworthy so I haven't commented on tournament performance.

February 2020

We made a bunch of changes to these files post-Corona for states but did not do good version control so they are the only cases I have. Pretty much stock cases with some good cards we found on our own. Also, this was our first blocks doc with a table of contents. Changed. My. Life.

Aff was stock with a couple of nice finds, neg was half stock half really funky China argument. Had lots of fun with that one.

I debated this topic with a different partner, Lorenzo didn't debate the BRI. Our captains wrote these cases for us, and we only went to one tournament on the topic.
