Using them

  • Cut along the dotted lines.
  • Many judges use fingers instead. Either is fine.
  • Impromptu starts at the 6 card when the speaker gets the prompt. Prep signals only if the speaker asks.
  • When the speaker finishes, write their time on the ballot. Say it out loud only if the tournament asks you to.
