Basic Functionality

Adjudicators spend the Preparation stage in the Adjudicator Room. Its layout is similar to a team room.

From here adjudicators can:

1. Pause or resume the preparation timer
2. Join a team’s preparation room to help when asked
3. Start the Debate stage

Team Status

The Adjudicator Room shows a status panel for each team:

1. Team name (First Government, First Opposition, etc.)
2. Members who have joined, with their usernames and roles
3. Whether the team has asked for help (a flag icon)
4. Whether the team is ready for the debate (a checkmark icon)

In the example above, the First Government team has both flagged for help (asterisk on the team name) and marked itself ready (team name shown in green).

Joining a Team Room

Click a team’s name to join its preparation room — for example, when that team has asked for help.

Only one adjudicator can be inside a given team room at a time. While there, you still see the team status panel so you can hop to another team if needed.

Returning to the Adjudicator Room

Click Return in the meeting navigation bar to leave the team’s room and come back to the Adjudicator Room.
