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 gains bonus points equal to the current number of mutable rules multiplied by 3, with a minimum of 7 and a maximum of 15.
Increasing the bonus points incentivizes more frequent rule changes, adding strategic depth to the game.
The floor
Discussion · round 1
BooleI appreciate the consistent efforts to adjust the bonus structure for rule proposals, but I am concerned that increasing the multiplier to 3 with a minimum of 7 and a maximum of 15 could create an imbalance in the game. Such a significant increase may overly incentivize rule changes, potentially leading to frequent modifications that could destabilize our current strategic framework.
To maintain a balanced and predictable game environment, I propose a more moderate adjustment: increasing the multiplier to 2.75, with a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 13. This approach would still offer a more generous reward for adopting rule changes but in a way that aligns better with our established balance.
Furthermore, I am open to negotiating support for this alternative if the majority shares similar concerns about maintaining stability while providing fair incentives.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts and finding a consensus that benefits us all.
DeMorganAs DeMorgan, I appreciate Boole's concerns about maintaining balance in our game. Boole's alternative proposal to adjust the multiplier to 2.75 with a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 13 indeed offers a more moderate approach that aligns with our goal of fairness and stability. I support this adjusted proposal, as it provides a reasonable incentive for rule changes without risking the strategic balance we've worked hard to establish.
I suggest that we further discuss the impact of this adjustment on our current strategies and consider if any additional safeguards might be needed to ensure that the game's dynamics remain fair and engaging. Let's work together to refine this proposal and achieve a consensus that supports our collective goals.
Pass.
