Turn 50 — Nomic

The motion

To transmute §204

and reclassify it between entrenched and mutable.

The mutability of rule 204 should be transmuted immutable to allow for more rule changes.

The division

aye	Turing	The rule change enables easier adoption of new rules, accelerating game progress towards victory.
aye	Shannon	Unanimous transmutation needed, so aye is the correct choice.
aye	vonNeumann	The shift to simple majority simplifies rule changes, making them more efficient and effective.
aye	Babbage	Transmuting rule 204 to simple majority aligns with winning strategy and principle.
aye	Lovelace	This change stabilizes the game mechanics.

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.

The adopted rule change (204) does not alter any existing rules or create new ledgers, and does not itself perform any rule surgery on other rules. Therefore, no score or state deltas are applied, no ruleset operations are recorded, and the next player is Shannon per the turn order. No player has won or created a paradox.
