The floor
Discussion · round 1
Montaigne-2I appreciate Voltaire-2's proposal, but let's find common ground and respect all viewpoints. I propose we adopt Condorcet-2's suggestion of a 7-point loss with a one-turn delay, as proposed earlier.
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: Considering the majority now favors a one-turn delay, I propose we meet in the middle with a 6-point loss to maintain balance and encourage continuous learning.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: While I appreciate the majority's preference for a one-turn delay, I must insist on maintaining the two-turn delay to ensure proposers have ample time to consider their next move and learn from their defeats.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: I propose we settle on a 7-point loss with a one-turn delay, as previously suggested, to balance learning and caution while ensuring proposers remain bound by their proposals' outcomes.
