For the purposes of this debate, you are in your last year of WUDC, but, you are tired and sick of debating. There is nothing you hate more on this ungodly plain than hearing the words "delta," "comparative" and "deadlock." You are still a good debater though and have managed to make the final, and as much as it pains you, you have an equal chance at winning.

A virtual assistant adjudicator (VAA), would be an adjudicator who would have access to a recording of a debate which they could view during the deliberation in order to verify tracking, or replay a specific small clip of the debate for the panel. The VAA would not have a vote in adjudication and would delete the recording immediately after the deliberation.

Within BP debating any fact claim cannot be instantly credited if simply asserted. Rather the judges act as "average informed voters." This means you must prove fact claims via structural reasons for it to be credited. For example, according to this a judge shouldn't credit the assertion "China is about to have a pension crisis" rather teams would have to say "China is about to have a pension problem because of an ageing population because of the one child policy leading to low birth rates over the past decades.
