The motion
To amend §203
A rule change is adopted only when every eligible voter votes aye — unanimous consent — except that once the turn order has carried play through one full circuit of every player, the threshold permanently drops to a simple majority of those voting.
This amendment lowers the threshold for rule adoption from two full circuits to one, encouraging more dynamic and frequent rule changes while maintaining a balance with existing security.
