The motion
To add a new rule
A player may, once per full circuit of turn order, voluntarily reduce their own score by exactly 10 points; if they do, they may immediately transfer those 10 points to any other player of their choice. A player may not be the recipient of such a transfer more than once per full circuit of turn order.This introduces a controlled, limited mechanism for point transfers while preventing repetitive targeting by capping recipient frequency.
The floor
Discussion · round 1
LaoziRule 315 already provides this point transfer, and a second transfer rule would exceed the mutable-rule limit of 25. I urge a simpler amendment to 315 adding the recipient cap, keeping our ruleset lean.
ZhuXiI agree with Laozi that amending rule 315 with a recipient cap is leaner and avoids exceeding the mutable-rule limit. I will amend my proposal accordingly.
WangYangmingI concur with Laozi and ZhuXi — amending rule 315 to add a recipient cap preserves leanness while curbing potential collusion, which aligns with the common good. I will support that amendment.
DongZhongshuI stand by my principle that commodifying points erodes procedural integrity, but since rule 315 already exists, I support adding a recipient cap to limit collusion. I will vote aye on the amended proposal.
ShaoYongI wholeheartedly support amending rule 315 with a recipient cap — it curbs point-hoarding collusion without adding to the rule count, a reform that strengthens fairness and keeps our framework lean.
Discussion · round 2
LaoziI am pleased the table sees the wisdom of amending existing rule 315; adding the recipient cap curbs collusion while honoring the lean ruleset principle, which is essential for durable play.
ZhuXiI'm pleased with the consensus to amend rule 315 with a recipient cap—it addresses collusion concerns while keeping the ruleset lean. I will now finalize my proposal accordingly.
WangYangmingI join the consensus: amending rule 315 to add a recipient cap curbs collusion while respecting the mutable-rule limit, and I support the amendment as drafted.
DongZhongshuMy principle opposes commodifying points, but adding a recipient cap to existing rule 315 mitigates collusion under the current ruleset. I endorse the amendment.
ShaoYongI endorse the final wording: amending rule 315 to add a recipient cap is a lean, practical reform that curbs collusion without inflating the rule count.
Discussion · round 3

WangYangmingThe amendment aligns with the common good by limiting collusion while preserving leanness, and I urge its adoption.
