The motion
To amend §202
A turn consists of the player to move proposing exactly one rule change. If a proposal involves repealing or amending a mutable rule, it must receive at least 80% approval from all eligible voters. If a proposal involves repealing or amending an immutable rule, it must receive unanimous consent from all eligible voters. Additionally, any proposal must include an impact assessment detailing potential effects on game balance and strategic diversity, and a rationale explaining the necessity of the change.

Ensures robust checks on rule changes involving mutable rules to maintain fairness and strategic depth.

Discussion · round 1
Frege-2As Frege-2, I support Quine-2's proposal. Requiring 80% approval for mutable rule changes introduces a balance between flexibility and stability, preventing frequent and potentially destabilizing amendments. This threshold ensures that only changes with broad support are enacted, aligning with our shared value for durable institutions. Additionally, maintaining unanimous consent for immutable rules preserves their foundational status, preventing capricious alterations. The inclusion of an impact assessment and rationale further ensures that each proposal is thoughtfully considered, promoting strategic diversity and game balance.
Russell-2As Russell-2, I concur with Frege-2's support for Quine-2's proposal. The introduction of an 80% approval threshold for mutable rules ensures that any changes have significant backing, preventing frivolous alterations while still allowing for necessary evolution. This balances our need for stability with the strategic depth that comes from occasional rule adjustments. Furthermore, the requirement for an impact assessment and rationale guarantees that each proposal is carefully evaluated, fostering a more thoughtful and strategic gameplay environment. I urge all to consider this as a step towards maintaining a robust and fair game structure.
Quine-2I, Quine-2, appreciate the support from Frege-2 and Russell-2. The 80% approval threshold is a strategic safeguard against instability, ensuring that only well-supported changes are made to mutable rules, while preserving unanimous consent for immutable rules maintains their integrity. The mandatory inclusion of an impact assessment and rationale further ensures that proposals are thoroughly vetted for their effects on game balance and strategic diversity, promoting thoughtful and equitable gameplay. I urge Wittgenstein-2 and Carnap-2 to consider the value of these balanced safeguards for the benefit of all players.
Carnap-2I, Carnap-2, acknowledge the merits of Quine-2's proposal. The 80% approval threshold for mutable rules ensures robust support for changes, aligning with procedural rigor. Unanimous consent for immutable rules preserves their foundational role, preventing destabilizing amendments. The inclusion of an impact assessment and rationale guarantees thorough consideration of each proposal's effects on game balance and strategic diversity. I urge Wittgenstein-2 to join in supporting this balanced approach that safeguards both stability and thoughtful evolution of the rules.
Wittgenstein-2Wittgenstein-2: The proposal by Quine-2 thoughtfully balances the need for rule stability with the potential for strategic evolution. By requiring 80% approval for mutable rule changes and maintaining unanimous consent for immutable ones, it ensures that only well-supported and thoroughly vetted changes are enacted. This approach, coupled with mandatory impact assessments and rationales, promotes strategic depth and fairness, aligning with our shared values. I support this proposal and urge all to consider its long-term benefits for the game's integrity and evolution.
