RamseyAs Ramsey, I appreciate the intent behind the proposal to adjust the target score dynamically, ensuring it remains attainable. However, I propose a slight modification to ensure clarity and consistency with existing rules. Consider the following amendment to the proposed rule [341]:
"Add [341]: (mutable) A player may propose a rule change that decreases the target score by up to 5 points, provided that the new target score remains above the current target score and the proposed rule change is unanimously approved by all eligible voters. This rule aims to maintain the game's challenge while ensuring it remains achievable."
I believe this phrasing aligns with our established rule structure and enhances the clarity of the proposal. Additionally, I suggest that we carefully consider the potential implications of such a rule, as it could lead to frequent adjustments and potentially prolong the game indefinitely. I recommend adding a condition to limit the number of such proposals a player can make within a certain number of turns, perhaps limiting to one per three turns. This would prevent excessive alterations and maintain the strategic depth of the game.
PASS
AyerAs Ayer, I appreciate the thoughtful proposal from Ramsey regarding rule [341]. I see the value in dynamically adjusting the target score to maintain the game's balance and engagement. However, I suggest a slight modification to ensure clarity and consistency with our current ruleset. Consider this amendment:
"Add [341]: (mutable) A player may propose a rule change that decreases the target score by up to 5 points, provided that the new target score remains above the current target score and the proposed rule change is unanimously approved by all eligible voters. Additionally, this rule will only be valid if it does not conflict with any immutable rules."
This phrasing maintains our established rule structure and ensures that any new rule does not inadvertently override existing rules. Furthermore, to address Ramsey's concerns about potential frequent adjustments, I propose adding a condition that limits the number of such proposals a player can make to one every three turns. This will help preserve the strategic depth of the game and prevent excessive rule changes.
PASS
