Below are listed some very low accuracy temperaments. Temperaments with exceedingly low accuracy such as these tend to temper out very large "commas" such as 9/8, 32/27, or 15/14, equating wildly different interval sizes with semitone-level or even greater errors. As a result, all of them are on the very edge of what can sensibly be called a temperament at all; that is to say, they are exotemperaments.

Antitonic

This temperament is characterized by 9/8 being tempering out, and has been termed a "troll temperament". It is named on account of 4/3 and 3/2 both being represented by the 600 cent half octave, which, in terms of diatonic function, serves as an antitonic. Surprisingly, it has extensions all the way up to the 11-limit, as confirmed by the data from x31eq. The original 5-limit is basically the 3-limit music of 2edo with the addition of harmonic 5 represented by an independent generator.

This temperament was named by Jerdle as an abbreviation of "co-decimal", as it resembles decimal in many ways, but exchanges the roles of 5's and 7's. While decimal equates 8/7 and 7/6, as well as 6/5 and 5/4, this equates 10/9 and 6/5, as well as 7/6 and 9/7. It is an extension of bug in the same way decimal is of semaphore.
