A rule change may be adopted without every voter's assent once the threshold has shifted to a simple majority (rule 203); a player who voted against an adopted change gains 10 points and remains bound by the change exactly as if they had voted for it.Now mutable.

Rule 204 allows adoption without unanimous assent once threshold is simple majority; all five players voted aye, so adoption succeeded. No rules award points for adoption or dissent, so no score changes. No rules amend or repeal other rules, so no ruleset ops. Shannon proposed next per turn order.
