Mock Trial (1 Viewer)

[2ndbest]

Hi guys!
I have heard a lot of schools have the same case as us, the one where someone was hit and they are counter claiming. we are the prosecution and it literally seems impossible to win it, the case is really one sided...does anyone else agree?

 

[basketcase89]

Yes I agree with you, we are also the Prosecution and the case looks really, really difficult. However I think that the Defence has a weaker case (after analysing it for quite a while). Anyway I won't go into details.

ha crap. i go sefton high school, we did one or two rounds, then the supervisor ( a really good/cool teacher) left, and went back to melbourne, so we had no replacement teacher. so mock trial was disbanded, and yeah, we dun do it anymore. was fun, sounds even better now, too bad we're missing out ><

Mock Trial was fun... We kept losing though... damn magistrates were biased towards girls' schools -.-

...those were the days.

Now why is that eerily similar to our case?

The district gets the same case, its just divided into prosecution and defence. so everyone will be doing the same case

That would explain why.

yeah i think it is really bad that everyone gets the same case, i know it would be really hard to make a new case for every team but so much cheating goes on

i got a mock trial coming up on tuesday .. but im sitting this one out cuz i got too much work and ima too busy .. lol but the case is about some guy who acted on negligence and resulted in a guy whos in a car to swerve to the wrong side of the road and damaged his car .. XD

 

[Dzak Helfeather]

It's stupid, aye.

But it's all about the presentation for points.

 

[SoulSearcher]

Had our mock trial on tuesday, and won by a few points. Pretty sure we're going to make it to the next round, 2 wins and a draw should be enough to get us through.

 

[basketcase89]

We lost.

:cries hysterically:

 

[SoulSearcher]

We lost.

:cries hysterically:

There, there. There, there. I <3 the simpsons

You guys able to get through to the elimination rounds? 2 wins and a loss would still see you in with a chance of getting through.

 

[basketcase89]

We won 3 rounds actually.
You mean ... theres hope?!

Possible, although the first round doesn't count when calculating who gets into the elimination rounds.

 

[basketcase89]

Oh k, thanks.

 

[ChicShit]

We won again!

Thrashed another school in round 3, with an 80 point difference...
Looking at the mock trial scores we have the highest, so I think my team are def. into the elimination rounds.
I must say, I hated that last case! The witness statements had so many objections you just had to concede to

That's quite a big difference between the points. The most we ever had was a 50 point crushing of the school we faced in the 3rd round.

 

[basketcase89]

Is it the Top 4 schools in each district that go through? If that's the case then even though we lost one we're still in!
