The floor
Discussion · round 1
FoucaultI support retaining the current rule requiring unanimous consent for rule changes. This ensures that any amendments are carefully considered and agreed upon by all players, promoting stability and durability in the game's institutions.
DerridaDerrida: I appreciate Foucault's emphasis on stability, but I wonder if we might reconsider this later after some turns have been played. For now, I agree with keeping the current rule to ensure we build a solid foundation.
RicoeurRicoeur: I respect the desire for stability, but I believe a majority vote would better reflect the players' collective will and allow for more experimentation. This change would make rule changes more accessible, fostering innovation and ensuring the game evolves fairly.
