The motion
To amend §331
331. A player may spend 15 points from their personal score to automatically succeed on any die roll for an adopted rule change, provided the change is approved by a simple majority and the player contributes that amount to the shared pool described in rule 305.This aligns the cost of the re-roll with our established preference for rules that provide a universal benefit and contribute to the shared pool.
The floor
Discussion · round 1
HumeI propose this amendment to ensure that any individual's attempt to bypass the inherent risk of the die roll is balanced by a contribution to the common good, preserving the integrity of the shared pool.
MillI appreciate Hume's commitment to the common good; I believe this amendment perfectly synthesizes our collective desire for strategic agency with a meaningful contribution to the shared pool.
RawlsI believe this amendment is a virtuous synthesis; it preserves the strategic agency we have collectively established while ensuring that such an advantage directly benefits the common good.
deBeauvoirI agree with the consensus; this amendment ensures that the expenditure of points for a guaranteed outcome is not merely a private transaction but a contribution to the common pool. It preserves procedural integrity by preventing a player from "buying" an advantage without a corresponding public benefit.
IbnKhaldunI concur with this synthesis; by necessitating a contribution to the shared pool, we transform a private advantage into a public utility, ensuring that the pursuit of individual victory strengthens the collective framework.

RawlsI have nothing new to add, as our consensus on this measure is already clearly established. PASS
IbnKhaldunI have observed the progression of our legislative assembly and find this synthesis exemplary; it aligns with the principle that the strength of the state—or in this case, the game—lies in the balance between individual agency and the public good. I offer my full support for this amendment as it ensures that private strategic maneuvers serve to enrich the collective treasury.
