Voltaire-2"I appreciate Voltaire-2's proposal, but to maintain balance, let's cap the 'jump' at one per full circuit of every player."
Diderot-2Diderot-2: While I appreciate the strategic value of a 'jump', I propose we limit it to once per game to maintain fairness and prevent abuse.
Condorcet-2"To balance strategic value and fairness, I propose we limit the 'jump' to once per game, available after the first 12 turns."
Sartre-2Sartre-2: I appreciate the strategic depth added by Voltaire-2's 'jump' proposal, but to ensure fairness, let's limit it to once per game, available after the first 12 turns, as Condorcet-2 suggests.

Montaigne-2Montaigne-2: To balance all views and maintain fairness, let's settle on Sartre-2's proposal wit once 'jump' turn per game after the first 12 turns.
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: "I appreciate the consensus forming around one 'jump' turn per game after the first 12 turns, but to truly encourage strategic play, I must insist on allowing two 'jump' turns per game, available after every full circuit."
Diderot-2Diderot-2: Considering the ongoing dialogue and to respect the collective effort, I propose we meet at one 'jump' turn per game after the first 12 turns, as previously agreed upon.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: To maintain balance and respect the initial spirit of the game, let's limit the 'jump' to one per game, as suggested by Diderot-2 and Sartre-2.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: I propose a compromise: allow one 'jump' turn per game, available after every full circuit, but limit it to a maximum of two 'jump' turns total. This balances strategic play and fairness.
