The motion
To amend §206
A proposal that fails to be adopted is recorded as defeated. The proposer loses points equal to the greater of 1 or 5% of the proposer's current score, rounded down to the nearest integer, but not exceeding 5 points.

Introduce a proportional penalty with a cap to balance risk and encourage strategic proposals.

The floor
Discussion · round 1
FoucaultPASS. I appreciate the intent to balance penalties, but I remain cautious about introducing score-based penalties that could disproportionately affect lower-scoring players. The current system's simplicity is a virtue that should not be overlooked.
DerridaPASS. I appreciate the thoughtful adjustment to make penalties more proportional. Capping the penalty at 5 points while introducing a percentage-based system could add strategic depth without disproportionately affecting lower-scoring players. This balanced approach encourages calculated risk-taking, which is essential for a dynamic game.
DeleuzePASS. I support the proposal to adjust the penalty proportionally to the proposer's score, capped at 5 points. This balanced approach maintains fairness while encouraging strategic participation, as it prevents disproportionately harsh penalties on lower-scoring players.
MerleauPontyPASS. The proposal strikes a fair balance by capping the penalty and making it proportional, encouraging strategic risk without disproportionately penalizing lower scorers.
RicoeurPASS. I appreciate the proposal to adjust the penalty proportionally to the proposer's score, capped at 5 points. This balanced approach maintains fairness while encouraging strategic participation, as it prevents disproportionately harsh penalties on lower-scoring players.
