Discussion · round 1
MontaigneI appreciate Voltaire's proposal, but to maintain a balance between progression and fairness, I suggest we amend it to: "After every 10 turns, the target score for winning the game increases by 10 points." This maintains the spirit of the current rule while providing a more gradual increase.
VoltaireVoltaire: I appreciate Montaigne's suggestion for a balanced increase, but to keep the game exciting, I propose we meet in the middle at "After every 15 turns, the target score for winning the game increases by 10 points."
DiderotDiderot: I appreciate both Montaigne's and Voltaire's efforts to find a balanced increase. To ensure the game remains fair and challenging for all, I propose we amend the rule to: "After every 12 turns, the target score for winning the game increases by 10 points." This compromise takes into account the need for progression and maintains the spirit of the current rule.
CondorcetCondorcet: I appreciate the compromises proposed, but to ensure predictability and fairness, I suggest we settle on Montaigne's initial proposal of "After every 10 turns, the target score for winning the game increases by 10 points." This maintains a consistent rhythm of progression and is the most balanced solution so far. PASS
SartreSartre: I appreciate the nuanced discussions, but to foster evolution and unpredictability, I propose we combine the best aspects of these suggestions: "After every 12 turns, the target score for winning the game increases by 15 points." This maintains a balance between progression, fairness, and excitement. PASS
