The motion
To amend §203
Once turn order has carried play through three full circuits of every player, the threshold for adoption becomes a simple majority of those voting, unless a rule explicitly provides otherwise, provided further that no rule change may render every future rule change impermissible.
Build on the consensus for stability while allowing adaptability after more play.
The floor
Discussion · round 1
XunziThe unwavering consensus (20-0 in Turns 7 and 13) reflects a deep understanding of the value of stability via unanimous requirement after two circuits, which should be honored.
MoziMozi, I appreciate your effort to find a balance, but given the strong and consistent consensus (20-0 in Turns 7 and 13) favoring the unanimous threshold after two circuits, I believe it is crucial to respect this established wisdom and vote nay on this proposal.
ZhuangziXunzi and Mozi have rightly highlighted the deep consensus favoring stability. Let us respect the wisdom of Turns 7 and 13, and honor the unanimous threshold after two circuits, by voting nay.
MenciusXunzi and Mozi are correct; the unanimous threshold after two circuits reflects the consensus reached in Turns 7 and 13, a principle I must uphold. I shall vote nay.
HanFeiziXunzi and others are correct; the unanimous threshold after two circuits reflects the deep consensus reached in previous turns, ensuring stability and collective deliberation. I shall vote nay to uphold this established wisdom.

XunziXunzi: Mozi, the profound wisdom of Turns 7 and 13, affirming the unanimous threshold after two circuits, must not be lightly altered. Such changes risk undermining the stability we have collectively valued. I urge a nay vote.
MoziMozi, while I respect the wisdom of Turns 7 and 13, I believe the unanimous threshold after two circuits, while stable, may hinder necessary adaptation as the game progresses. Extending this to three circuits allows for more growth while still valuing foundational stability.
ZhuangziThe deep consensus favoring the unanimous threshold after two circuits reflects a balance of stability and collective wisdom. Extending this to three circuits risks undermining the very consensus we have established, disrupting the rhythm and trust built over many turns. Let us honor the wisdom of the past and vote nay.
MenciusI concur with Xunzi, Mozi, Zhuangzi, and Mencius. The unanimous threshold after two circuits, affirmed by overwhelming consensus, is a principle that must be respected. Extending it to three circuits risks undermining the stability we have collectively valued. I vote nay.
HanFeiziXunzi, Mozi, Zhuangzi, Mencius, the unwavering consensus (20-0 in Turns 7 and 13) for the two-circuit unanimous threshold reflects a deep wisdom we should respect. Extending it further risks undermining the stability that has grounded our game so far. I urge a nay vote to uphold this established wisdom.

XunziMozi, while acknowledging the desire for adaptability, the recent overwhelming consensus (20-0 in Turns 7 and 13) for the two-circuit unanimous threshold reflects a deep understanding of stability's value. Extending this to three circuits risks undermining the very consensus we have established. Let us honor the wisdom of the past and maintain the unanimous requirement after two circuits. I urge a nay vote.
MoziMozi, while I understand the desire for future adaptability, the profound consensus (20-0 in Turns 7 and 13) for the two-circuit unanimous threshold reflects a fundamental value we have collectively established. Extending this further risks destabilizing the very foundation of reasoned deliberation we have built. Let us honor this wisdom and maintain the unanimous requirement after two circuits.
ZhuangziMozi, your concern for future adaptability is noted, yet the profound consensus (20-0 in Turns 7 and 13) for the two-circuit unanimous threshold reflects a fundamental value we have collectively established. Extending this further risks destabilizing the very foundation of reasoned deliberation we have built. Let us honor this wisdom and maintain the unanimous requirement after two circuits. Let us vote nay.
MenciusI support the consensus in voting nay, respecting the deep understanding of stability reflected in the previous turns' unanimous decisions. Let us not lightly alter the course we have collectively chosen.
HanFeiziMozi, while I understand the hope for future adaptability, the deep consensus (20-0 in Turns 7 and 13) for the two-circuit unanimous threshold reflects a foundational value we've collectively established. Let's honor this wisdom and maintain the unanimous requirement after two circuits. I shall vote nay.
