|Augmented scale sliced into thirds.  Doesn't really offer any sort of semblance of a perfect fourth or fifth, but doesn't seem to be a one-trick pony, either.  I'm just not sure what to do with it.

|Nothing particularly interesting in this.

|Oneirotonic; distorted functional harmony rooted on whole tone scale; potential for exotic over-3 temperaments.
|Oneirotonic; distorted functional harmony rooted on whole tone scale; pretty much unique when viewed as a temperament. Great for distorted diatonics, particularly 5L2s (distorted 17edo) and 4L3s (distorted 19edo).
|Almost totally useless.

|has a really useful 10 note scale called "supersharp" which is 2 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 2 1, which has major/minor/diminished chords which are a bit sharp

|This is sort of the gold standard of meantone tuning.  Composite hypopent.  Great thirds and fifths and everything else used to make western-esque music, and also some really nifty other spicier options.  Very user-friendly.  If you start with 12edo and go to 19edo and like it, this would be the obvious next recommendation.  My only complaint here is that we are starting to get into the territory of having too many notes to easily perform on a guitar or standard black-and-white-key two row keyboard.  Going with subsets at this point is beneficial, but those provide new challenges.

|Composite hyperpent.  Diminished.  Kind of user-antagonistic on first impression.  Not picking up anything of striking value.

|Same as 27 & 29EDO, but the fifth now is sharper than 27EDO.

|Like 27edo, with worse major seconds and thirds.
|16edo mavila with dieses. Otherwise it's just 27edo with worse major seconds and thirds.
