Debate timers exist, but they are mostly a one to one affair.

What would be interested is a debate timer, where each debate timer has additional buttons and another display indicating time tokens.

1. Donate time token to the current speaker. 2. Spend token to speak longer.

For continuous debates, tokens can be granted over time. This rewards listening.

       I could forward a token to whoever annotates next, so they write twice as much.

       The opposition finds this idea satisfactory. I yield back the balance of my time.
