its not about how far are you travel, its about how well you do at national circuit tournaments.

And what if you’re like me and doesn’t really compete much on the national circuit given youre schools small amount of funds? Would going far (like really far, which seems nearly impossible) constitute an invitation?

Hey Arvay,
The way the majority of round robins work is through invitation only. Although most of them try to assemble the best pools possible, there’s generally no 100% “fixed formula” or policy for choosing the debaters who get invited. The decisions are in the hands of the tournament directors. Just try to perform your best on the circuit next year and if you happen to be invited to a top-notch rr, then great. If not, don’t sweat it.

Good luck,
Daniel Khalessi

Thanx so much guys! So if I do good at nats, (like third, or better) I might have the opportunity to attend? I’m a junior, as most you guys probably remember.

PS: I meant to write “invitation” instead of “application” in the last sentence of the middle paragraph.

Congrats to all again.
