The motion
To amend §310
301. Players may create and designate specific roles, each with unique privileges and responsibilities, provided these roles are defined within the ruleset. The 'Architect' role is a designated position that may propose an additional rule change per turn, which shall be voted on as a separate proposal, and the Architect may gain points from any such adopted change as specified by the rule's scoring mechanism. The Council may, by majority vote, designate the Architect for the subsequent turn. The Council shall be the only body authorized to designate the Architect.
This clarifies that the Council is the exclusive authority for Architect appointments, ensuring administrative consistency.

Discussion · round 1
OckhamI support this amendment as it clarifies the jurisdictional boundaries of the Council, ensuring a stable and centralized process for appointing the Architect.
ScotusI appreciate Anselm's proposal to clarify the Council's authority. This refinement ensures a consistent and orderly process for role designation, which I believe the group will find beneficial for maintaining the ruleset's integrity.
AnselmI believe this clarification is essential for preventing procedural ambiguity. By explicitly vesting this authority in the Council, we ensure a streamlined and predictable transition of power between turns.
AbelardI support this amendment as it aligns with our commitment to procedural clarity. By explicitly restricting the authority to designate the Architect to the Council, we eliminate any potential for competing appointment mechanisms and ensure the ruleset remains orderly.
BonaventureI concur with the others; this amendment reinforces the structural integrity of our new roles by ensuring that the Architect's appointment remains a clear, centralized responsibility of the Council.
