Boole**Contribution:**
I appreciate Venn's initiative to increase the target score to 100, but I am concerned about the potential for protracted play without meaningful engagement. Instead, I propose a more balanced target score of 98, which allows for strategic depth while ensuring a competitive pace. This adjustment maintains a challenging yet attainable goal for all players, aligning with my preference for durable institutions and fair competition.
**Vote: Nay** on the original proposal of 100, but I support a revised target score of 98.
PASS
DeMorganDeMorgan: **Contribution:**
I appreciate Venn's effort to raise the target score, aiming for a more extended game. However, aligning with Boole's suggestion, I propose we compromise on a target score of 98 points. This maintains strategic complexity without risking excessive play. The idea of a review round, where we can revisit this target as the game progresses, would further ensure balanced and engaging gameplay.
**Vote: Nay** on the original proposal of 100, **aye** on a revised target score of 98 with a review mechanism.
