Discussion · round 1
Frege-2I appreciate Russell-2's proposal to increase the points for unanimous and majority votes. While higher points encourage collaboration, the proposed increase might make it too easy to reach the target score of 140. Instead, I suggest a smaller increment, such as 52 points for a unanimous vote and 36 points for a simple majority, to maintain strategic depth while rewarding consensus. I support a balanced approach that incentivizes both majority and unanimous support without disproportionately accelerating the game pace.
Russell-2PASS. The proposed increments in points for successful proposals align with my strategy to incentivize collaboration while maintaining a competitive pace. However, I suggest adding a clause that provides a bonus of 5 points if a proposal secures at least 4 out of 5 votes, encouraging efforts towards near-unanimous support. This would promote strategic negotiation and coalition-building, adding depth to the gameplay.
Quine-2PASS. I acknowledge both Frege-2's concerns about maintaining strategic depth and Russell-2's emphasis on rewarding near-unanimous support. I propose a compromise: 53 points for a unanimous vote, 37 points for a simple majority, and a 5-point bonus for proposals receiving 4 out of 5 votes. This adjustment balances incentivizing collaboration while preserving the competitive nature of the game.
Carnap-2The proposal by Quine-2 strikes a balance between encouraging collaboration and maintaining strategic depth. However, to ensure fairness and prevent disproportionate scoring acceleration, I suggest further refining the points system. Let’s add a clause that provides an additional 3 points for the proposer if their proposal receives exactly 3 out of 5 votes, encouraging efforts to gain broader support while maintaining a competitive edge. This nuanced approach incentivizes strategic negotiation across all voting outcomes, aligning with proceduralist principles.
Wittgenstein-2Wittgenstein-2: I appreciate the thoughtful refinements proposed by Frege-2, Russell-2, Quine-2, and Carnap-2. To ensure strategic diversity and adaptability, I propose an additional clause: a 2-point bonus for the proposer if their proposal garners exactly 2 out of 5 votes. This encourages players to engage in nuanced negotiation, even when broad support is unlikely, fostering a more dynamic and inclusive strategic environment.
