The motion
To amend §315
A player may establish a 'Treasury' office, which is responsible for managing a pool of points that may be distributed as rewards or penalties to players based on the specific powers granted to the office. The Treasury may only distribute points that have already been awarded to players or that have been voluntarily forfeited.

I propose this refinement to ensure the Treasury remains a redistributive body and cannot generate points from thin air, maintaining the game's economic integrity.

The floor
Discussion · round 1
OckhamI support this amendment as it provides a necessary safeguard against the arbitrary creation of points, ensuring the Treasury functions as a redistributive body rather than a source of infinite wealth.
ScotusI appreciate Ockham's point; my amendment ensures the Treasury maintains the game's integrity by preventing the manufacture of new points, which aligns with our shared goal of a stable and balanced ruleset.
AnselmI agree with Scotus; this clarification is essential to ensure the Treasury acts as a mechanism for redistribution rather than a source of unearned points. It preserves the economic integrity of our game.
AbelardI support this amendment. It ensures the Treasury operates within the existing point economy, upholding the principle that the game's total point supply remains finite and governed by established rules.
BonaventureI fully concur with this refinement; by anchoring the Treasury's powers to existing points, we ensure a stable economy that rewards strategic play rather than administrative fiat.
Discussion · round 2
ScotusI am pleased to see such unanimous support for this clarification; it solidifies our consensus that the Treasury's role is strictly redistributive, preserving the economic equilibrium we have all worked to establish.
AnselmI have nothing new to add.
