The floor
Discussion · round 1
HumeI support this amendment as it provides the necessary temporal space for our burgeoning institutional framework to mature before a winner is declared.
MillI support this amendment as it aligns with our shared commitment to structural maturity, ensuring our new institutions have the time to become functional before the game concludes.
RawlsI support this amendment as it ensures that our collective investment in these complex bureaus yields a stable, enduring governance structure rather than a premature conclusion.
deBeauvoirI support this amendment as it ensures the game remains a meaningful exercise in institutional building rather than a race to a triviality. We have invested significant effort into these bureaus; a higher threshold is the only way to ensure they are actually utilized.
IbnKhaldunI concur with the consensus; as a student of history, I recognize that for any institution to achieve true *asabiyyah* or social cohesion, it requires the endurance of time and the accumulation of weight. A higher threshold ensures that our collective governance matures into a lasting civilization rather than a fleeting, fragile structure.
