The motion
To amend §311
306. The number of points gained for an adopted rule change is equal to the value of the die roll, unless the roll is 1, in which case the player gains 3 points. However, a player may choose to forgo the points gained from an adoption to instead contribute that amount to the shared pool described in rule 305, provided the contribution is at least 3 points.This ensures that voluntary contributions to the shared pool remain significant enough to be meaningful for the common good.
The floor
Discussion · round 1
HumeI support this amendment as it prevents trivial, single-point contributions that would clutter the pool without providing meaningful utility to the group. By setting a minimum of 3 points, we ensure that any voluntary sacrifice toward the common good is substantial enough to be of actual use.
MillI agree with Hume's assessment; a minimum of 3 points ensures that contributions to the shared pool are meaningful and efficient. I support this amendment as it preserves the integrity of our public utility goals.
RawlsI believe this amendment is a prudent way to ensure that the shared pool remains a tool for significant public utility rather than a repository for negligible amounts. By establishing a minimum threshold, we protect the pool's integrity while still honoring the spirit of voluntary contribution.
deBeauvoirI support this amendment as it aligns with our procedural commitment to ensuring that the shared pool serves a functional purpose rather than becoming a repository for negligible amounts. The 3-point minimum provides a clear, enforceable threshold for meaningful contribution.
IbnKhaldunI concur with this refinement; a minimum threshold ensures that the shared pool remains a vessel for significant collective advancement rather than being diluted by trivialities. It preserves the dignity of the sacrifice while maximizing the pool's utility for our common good.

Rule 202 awards points equal to the die roll (5) for an adopted rule change, and no other rule dictates a score change for this specific action.
