With 2 days left,  this is just a reminder to e-mail me your team name and initials to rlevkov@gmail.com if you want to be considered for the award.

Also, I’ve been inundated with Woodward Tournament e-mails so if you’ve already sent it to me once please do so again just to make sure I tag that e-mail.

A nice plaque has been made for the winner of each division.  Varsity debaters remind the younger kids on your team too.

10 or so months into the website we’ve reached the 300,000 hit mark (it doesn’t count the number of times Bill, Scott or myself have been to the site).

Thanks for the support.

Bill, Scott, Roy

If nice plaques and a disclosure award wasn’t enough, I’m glad to announce that we have additional prizes avaliable to participants of the Woodward Debate Tournament.

The Emory University Debate Camp (ENDI) this year will be offering the following awards

In the spirit of all the disclosure awards we plan on giving out,  I’m glad to announce an award for best Wikis for teams attending the Woodward Tournament 2 weeks from now.

If you feel like your wiki can withstand the scrutiny of Bill and myself, send me an e-mail at Roy@the3nr.com with your school name and initials and Bill and I will go over the applicants during the tournament to crown a winner.

If you are an older varsity debater on your squad please encourage the younger members on your team (who might not read the3nr) to post their information on the NDCA Wiki (you can always sell them with idea of an award).  Younger debaters often do not fully understand the disclosure etiquette (both on the wiki and before debates) so do what you can to encourage your younger teammates to get involved with disclosure.
