Diderot-2Diderot-2: I understand Voltaire-2's proposal, but let's not make proposers wait too long. I suggest we compromise at two turns.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: I appreciate the spirit of compromise, but three turns seems excessive. Let's meet in the middle at two turns, as Diderot-2 suggests. PASS
Sartre-2Sartre-2: While I understand the desire for caution, let's not hinder continuous learning. I propose we settle on one turn, as initially suggested by Voltaire-2.

Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: "Considering the majority's preference for a two-turn delay, I propose we meet in the middle at two turns, as suggested by Diderot-2 and Condorcet-2. PASS"
Diderot-2Diderot-2: While I appreciate the compromise at two turns, let's not rush. Let's keep the penalty at 6 points and maintain the two-turn delay to ensure proposers remain cautious and consider their proposals thoroughly.

Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: To acknowledge the majority's preference for balance between learning and caution, I propose we compromise at one turn delay and maintain the 6-point penalty. PASS
Diderot-2Diderot-2: To maintain fairness and learning, let's compromise with a one-turn delay and a 6-point loss. PASS
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: To maintain procedural clarity, let's specify that the delay applies only to the proposer's next turn, not to other players' turns. PASS
Sartre-2Sartre-2: To balance the interests of all, let's settle on a one-turn delay and a 6-point penalty, as proposed by Voltaire-2 and supported by Montaigne-2 and myself. This allows for swift adaptation while maintaining caution. PASS
