Discussion · round 1
MontaigneMontaigne: I appreciate Voltaire's proposal. To ensure a consistent progression and prevent sudden jumps, I propose we settle on an increase of 11 points after every 20 turns, as previously agreed upon.
VoltaireVoltaire: I understand Montaigne's concern, but let's consider a compromise: an 11-point increase every 20 turns and a 12-point increase every 22 turns. This maintains a steady progression while adding a new layer of variety.
DiderotDiderot: I appreciate both Voltaire's and Montaigne's considerations. To maintain a balance and respect the existing consensus, I propose we amend Voltaire's proposal to an 11-point increase after every 20 turns and a 10-point increase after every 22 turns. This way, we keep a steady progression while incorporating a new element as suggested by Voltaire.
CondorcetCondorcet: I appreciate the efforts to find a balance, but to maintain predictability, I propose we stick with the consistent 11-point increase every 20 turns as previously agreed.
SartreSartre: I appreciate the balance Voltaire and Diderot strive for, but I believe Condorcet's proposal respects the existing consensus best. To maintain predictability and steady progression, let's stick with the 11-point increase every 20 turns. PASS
