Below are listed some '''very low accuracy temperaments'''. Temperaments with exceedingly low accuracy such as these tend to temper out very large intervals such as 9/8, 10/9, 32/27, or 15/14, equating wildly different interval sizes with [[semitone (interval size measure)|semitone]]-level or even greater [[error]]s. As a result, all of them are right on or even beyond the edge of what can be sensibly called a temperament at all; that is to say, they are [[exotemperament]]s.

== Antitonic ==
== Antitonic ==
This temperament is characterized by [[9/8]] being tempering out, and has been termed a "troll temperament" by its namers. 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 [http://x31eq.com/cgi-bin/rt.cgi?limit=11&ets=2_4p&tuning=po 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 is characterized by [[9/8]] being tempered out and has been termed a "troll temperament" by its namers. Its [[ploidacot]] is diploid acot. 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. The 7-limit extension tempers out 15/14 and 21/20, equating 5/4 with 7/6 and 6/5 with 8/7. The 11-limit extension tempers out 12/11 and 33/32. The original 5-limit is basically the 3-limit music of [[2edo]] with the addition of harmonic 5 represented by an independent generator.

== Alteraugment ==
== Alteraugment ==
Alteraugment is like [[augmented]], but the generator provides 5/4 instead of 3/2. [[User:VectorGraphics|Vector Graphics]] suggests the name ''kinsborough'' for this temperament.
Alteraugment tempers out the [[32/27|Pythagorean minor third (32/27)]]. It is like [[augmented]], but the period represents 4/3 instead of 5/4, and the generator in turn provides 5/4 instead of 3/2. Its ploidacot is triploid acot. [[User:VectorGraphics|Vector Graphics]] suggests the name ''kinsborough'' for this temperament.

Involution was named by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] in 2023.  
Involution tempers out the [[45/32|ptolemaic augmented fourth (45/32)]]. Its ploidacot is monocot. It was named by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] in 2023.

This temperament was named by [[User:Jerdle|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]] and [[54/49|mujannabic]] in the same way decimal is of [[semaphore]] and [[dicot]].
