:: That's only remotely relatable. ''Ten days'' isn't the most common meaning of ''decade'', and "there are 36 times ten days per year" is a very rough equation unless in some ancient calendars. I strongly recommend giving it a less confusing name. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 05:19, 11 July 2021 (UTC) | :: That's only remotely relatable.

Hello Xenllium. I'm not sure if some of your proposed temperament extensions are the best, so I'd like to hear your opinions and see what we can do about that. For one, the canonical 13-limit mitonic extension ''ore'', as you proposed, is 46 & 125, whereas I feel that 46 & 125f is a better choice. By tempering out 325/324, it identifies prime 13 with simply 2 minor tones. More info here: http://x31eq.com/cgi-bin/rt.cgi?ets=46+%26+125f&limit=13. | |||
Not related but I came up with an even better name for 131072/130977. How about ''olympia''? It has do to with Sagittal's Olympian precision level, where diacritic marks of minas are used. One mina represents 4096/4095, two 2080/2079 and three 131072/130977. So that the corresponding temperament would be ''olympic''.
