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 throws a six-sided die and gains that many points, unless the proposal is a transmutation, in which case they gain 15 points. Additionally, if a player's score is negative, they receive an additional 5-point bonus on their next successful proposal, and if a proposal fails, the proposer may re-propose it in their next turn without penalty. However, if a player loses points for three consecutive defeats, they gain an additional turn to regain points.
This amendment promotes recovery for struggling players while preserving strategic depth.
