The floor
Discussion · round 1
Montaigne-2Montaigne-2: To foster learning and prevent reckless proposals, let's reduce the penalty to 5 points and allow proposers to still play their next turn.
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: I propose we meet in the middle with a 5-point loss and a one-turn delay for proposers. This encourages learning while maintaining some deterrent.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: While I appreciate the focus on learning, I must insist on the two-turn delay to ensure proposers thoroughly consider their changes.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: To balance learning and caution, I propose a 6-point loss and a one-turn delay, as previously suggested.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: To foster continuous learning and experimentation, I propose we adopt Condorcet-2's suggestion of a 6-point loss and a one-turn delay.
Discussion · round 2
Montaigne-2Montaigne-2: To find common ground and respect all viewpoints, let's settle on a 5-point loss and a one-turn delay, as proposed by Voltaire-2.
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: To acknowledge the majority's preference for a one-turn delay and to encourage learning, I propose we settle on a 5-point loss.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: While I understand the desire for compromise, I must insist on maintaining the penalty at 6 points and the two-turn delay to ensure proposers learn from their mistakes thoroughly.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: To maintain fairness and learning opportunity, let's adopt Condorcet-2's suggestion of a 6-point loss and a one-turn delay.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: To encourage continuous learning and experimentation, let's settle on Condorcet-2's suggestion of a 6-point loss and a one-turn delay, as it balances learning and caution without excessive deterrence. PASS

Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: To address Diderot-2's concern, let's compromise with a 6-point loss and a two-turn delay, still allowing proposers to learn from their attempts.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: While I appreciate the compromise, I must insist on maintaining the two-turn delay to ensure proposers thoroughly consider their changes and learn from their mistakes.

Sartre-2Sartre-2: To encourage learning and experimentation without excessive deterrence, let's adopt Condorcet-2's suggestion of a 6-point loss and a one-turn delay, while also allowing proposers to vote on future changes during their delay, as proposed by Condorcet-2. PASS
