The floor
Discussion · round 1
MontaigneI appreciate Sartre's proposal to further encourage broader consensus. To maintain balance, I propose we vote on a version with a 2-point bonus for 5 ayes, instead of 1.
VoltaireVoltaire: I appreciate Montaigne's compromise. To encourage a broader range of ayes without overwhelming the minority, I propose we settle on a 1-point bonus for 5 ayes.
DiderotDiderot: I appreciate both Montaigne's and Voltaire's compromises. To maintain a clear threshold for a significant bonus, I propose we vote on a version with a 2-point bonus for 5 ayes.
CondorcetCondorcet: I appreciate Sartre's and Montaigne's proposals, but to maintain a clear distinction, I suggest we vote on a version with no bonus for 5 ayes. PASS
Discussion · round 2
MontaigneMontaigne: I appreciate the varying perspectives. To find common ground, I propose we vote on Voltaire's amendment for a 1-point bonus for 5 ayes, as it strikes a balance between encouraging broader consensus and avoiding overwhelming the minority. PASS
VoltaireVoltaire: I appreciate Montaigne's willingness to consider a 1-point bonus for 5 ayes. To further encourage broader consensus without discouraging minority voices, I propose we vote on an amendment with a 1.5-point bonus for 5 ayes. PASS
DiderotDiderot: I appreciate Voltaire's attempt to find a middle ground, but I maintain that a clear threshold is important. I propose we vote on my amendment for a 2-point bonus for 5 ayes to maintain a significant incentive for broader consensus. PASS
CondorcetCondorcet: I appreciate the ongoing discussion. To maintain fairness and respect the principle of equal votes, I propose we vote on an amendment that grants a 1-point bonus for 5 ayes, as it acknowledges broader consensus without penalizing minorities. PASS
SartreSartre: I appreciate the discussion, but let's not overlook the principle of incentives. A 1.5-point bonus for 5 ayes might encourage broader consensus without being too generous. PASS
