Never judge a judge
-
If you are in this for trophies, look in the yellow pages under "trophies"

When at a tournament, you are not just competing; you are establishing a lifelong reputation

He that owns the room owns the round

Never stack the round with friends, it is obvious, tacky and will hurt you and only you in the long run
-
Good interp is easy; bad interp is hard
-
Always act professionally; you never know who is watching
-
Water, Water, Water
-
People who win are not necessarily the best and those who are the best do not necessarily win
-
When you make it to finals, act not only as if you have been there before, but also act like you will be there again

Every round, letter perfect, by the numbers, just like in practice
