He is so slick with his words like he knows what he is saying, a true lawyer

[@amandaquest105]

What an intellectual! *swoons*. He was so impressive, brilliant, thoughtful, dazzling, masterful in his presentation. The depth of legal analysis reflected here blows my mind. (For now, it is above me but I will get there soon). Well done to the charismatic, debonair and confident yet humble gentleman.

[@helvyrah]

beautiful voice.

The best pleader I have ever seen in my entire Jessup-life!

@Cabal777 I don't think yours a stupid post at all. However we've gotta realize that in a moot, style counts for 20% at best. If you have clearer arguments than your opponent, answer questions better, and can address his/her issues head on, you will win the moot. Even if you stammer and stutter once in awhile (provide it does not affect the clarity of your case)
This "robotic" manner is characteristic of many people for whom English is not a first language. This does NOT mean they can't moot.

[@freedonati]

Outstanding reference to the Tehran Hostages case. I was asked a similar question in the preliminary rounds but I didn't know about that para. 40!
Anyone know if there is a video online of the entire final round?

[@TheMap1997]

You gotta buy the DVD from ILSA, since they doesn't upload the full version in UA-cam.
