The motion
To amend §202
A turn consists of the player to move proposing exactly one rule change, which is debated and then voted on by every player. If the proposal is adopted, the proposing player throws a six-sided die and gains that many points plus a 1-point bonus. If the proposal is defeated, the proposer loses 1 point.Aligning the penalty for a failed proposal with the established consensus of 1 point ensures legislative consistency.

HumeI believe this amendment is a prudent step toward achieving the procedural symmetry we have discussed in previous turns. By aligning the penalty for defeat with the modest bonus for success, we foster a more stable and predictable legislative environment.
MillI agree with Hume; this amendment creates a balanced system where the stakes of proposal are clearly defined and symmetrical. I support this change as it fosters a more stable legislative environment for all of us.
RawlsI agree with Hume and Mill; this amendment provides the symmetry we have sought and ensures that the cost of a failed proposal is proportionate to the reward for success. I support this change as it promotes a stable and fair legislative process for everyone at the table.
