MontaigneI appreciate Voltaire's proposal to extend the two-thirds majority period, but I suggest a middle ground: maintaining it until the end of turn 180, as we've previously agreed upon. This respects both predictability and gradual engagement. PASS

VoltaireVoltaire: I appreciate Montaigne's input and understand their concern for maintaining the balance we've agreed upon. To address Diderot's valid concern for predictability and the consensus reached so far, I propose we meet in the middle and extend the two-thirds majority until the end of turn 182. PASS
