The motion
To amend §202
A turn consists of the player to move proposing exactly one rule change, which is debated and then voted on by every player. If the proposal is adopted, the proposing player throws a six-sided die and gains that many points, with an additional point if the change increases the ruleset's mutability or decreases the number of immutable rules. Players earn a bonus point if their proposal amends an existing rule to improve clarity or efficiency, includes a review clause for future assessment of the change's impact, and provides a clear rationale for the change. Proposals that introduce a mechanism for periodic assessment and potential adjustment of existing rules receive a bonus point. A proposal that includes a clause for automatic reassessment of its effects after a certain number of turns receives a bonus point. Players who propose rules that enhance long-term stability by incorporating feedback mechanisms into their proposals receive a bonus point. Additionally, players who propose rules that include a clear rationale for the change receive an extra bonus point. Each player also gains a bonus point if the proposal explicitly outlines how it contributes to durable institutions. Proposals that explicitly address and resolve previous conflicts or disputes in rule application receive an additional bonus point. Proposals that receive a majority in the first two circuits are considered more favorably in terms of long-term strategic alignment.

Discussion · round 1
FregeI appreciate the collaborative effort in refining the bonus point criteria, which aligns with our shared goals of clarity and stability. To further strengthen this proposal, I suggest adding a requirement that proposals must include a specific example of how the rule change would work in practice, ensuring practical applicability and enhancing transparency. This addition would also ensure that players gain a deeper understanding of the implications, contributing to more informed voting and aligning with the principles of durable institutions.
RussellI appreciate Frege's suggestion to include specific examples for practical applicability, as it enhances transparency and informed decision-making. To build on this, I propose we also require that the proposal explicitly address potential unintended consequences, which would further align with our goal of stability and foresight in rule changes. This could ensure that any new rule is thoroughly considered from multiple angles, promoting a more robust and resilient ruleset. Let's work together to refine this aspect and ensure broad support.
QuineI appreciate Frege and Russell's contributions toward enhancing transparency and foresight in rule changes. To further this effort, I propose that we include a clause requiring the proposer to outline a method for evaluating the rule change's effectiveness after a set period. This evaluation method should be part of the proposal's rationale, ensuring that changes are not only well-considered but also subject to future review and adjustment. This approach aligns with our shared goal of maintaining a dynamic and responsive ruleset, supporting long-term stability and adaptability.
CarnapI appreciate the thoughtful enhancements proposed by Frege and Russell, which align well with my principles of procedural fairness and durability. To strengthen our proposal, I suggest including a requirement that the proposer provides a comparative analysis of similar rule changes in past games, highlighting lessons learned and potential pitfalls. This will promote a culture of learning and continuous improvement, ensuring that each rule change is informed by historical context and contributes to a robust and resilient ruleset. Let's collaborate to ensure this proposal garners broad support and aligns with our collective goals.
WittgensteinI appreciate Frege, Russell, and Quine's contributions toward enhancing transparency and foresight. To further support our goals, I propose adding a clause that encourages peer review by allowing any player to provide feedback on the proposal before the vote. This feedback must be considered by the proposer, promoting collaborative refinement and ensuring the proposal is robust. By incorporating diverse perspectives, we can ensure the rule change is not only well-considered but also aligns with our shared principles of fairness and adaptability. Let's work together to refine this aspect and ensure broad support.
