Stone Butch Blues.
Teams must offer specific textual evidence. In other words, there must be a
quotation to which the team refers.
The team must be able to offer a brief explanation or analysis of how the
quotation supports or offers the answer to the question.
If any team begins an answer but cannot finish or finishes
unsatisfactorily, the next team can steal the quotation and provide analysis.
Quotations can only be used once in a round. It will behoove you to have
multiple options, particularly if your group will present last.
If there is extra time in any given round, we will go back to the first team for
another answer.
I will be the final judge in all cases.
