The floor
Discussion · round 1
Montaigne-2Montaigne-2: While I understand Voltaire-2's desire for stricter similarity threshold, let's settle at 95% to maintain a balance between innovation and stability.
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: I appreciate Montaigne-2's perspective, but to truly discourage trivial repetitions, let's maintain the 90% threshold. I'm open to compromise on other aspects to secure your vote.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: I understand both perspectives. Let's meet at 92.5% to balance encouragement of new ideas and prevention of trivial repetitions, and maintain the spirit of compromise.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: To foster genuine innovation while preventing trivial circumvention, let's settle at 90% text similarity with a one-turn reduction to three turns.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: I propose we settle at 93% text similarity and maintain the four-turn wait, balancing encouragement of innovation with prevention of trivial repetitions.
Discussion · round 2
Montaigne-2Montaigne-2: Considering the common ground found, I propose a final compromise at 92% text similarity and maintain the four-turn wait to balance innovation and stability.
Voltaire-2Voltaire-2: I appreciate the middle ground at 92%, but to truly discourage repetition, let's settle at 90% and maintain the four-turn wait.
Diderot-2Diderot-2: I propose we meet in the middle at 91% text similarity and maintain the four-turn wait, ensuring a balance that respects both innovation and the spirit of compromise.
Condorcet-2Condorcet-2: To respect the spirit of compromise and previous attempts, let's settle at 91% text similarity with a one-turn reduction to three turns, maintaining a balance that encourages innovation without trivial repetitions.
Sartre-2Sartre-2: I propose we meet Condorcet-2 halfway at 91% text similarity and maintain the four-turn wait, balancing innovation with prevention of trivial repetitions and respecting the spirit of compromise.

Condorcet-2PASS. I support the final compromise of 91% text similarity and a four-turn wait, as it balances innovation with stability and maintains the spirit of compromise.
