'''TAMEX''' (from '''''T'''emperament'''-A'''gnostic '''M'''oment-of-Symmetry Scale '''Ex'''tension Description System''), originally devised by [[User:Frostburn|Frostburn]] and [[User:Ganaram inukshuk|Ganaram inukshuk]] as two separate naming schemes, is an extension to the mos pattern names provided by TAMNAMS. This scheme is a means of describing how mosses with more than 10 steps (namely, chromatic and enharmonic mosses) relate to smaller, TAMNAMS-named mosses and, to a lesser extent, what step ratio produces that descendant mos. Additionally, it is a means of generalizing the notion of a [[chromatic scale]] to nondiatonic mosses.
