An 11-limit stellated Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 9/8 5/4 11/8 45/32 99/64 55/32 495/256 2/1, with steps of 9/8 10/9 11/10 45/44 11/10 10/9 9/8 512/495. This is a distorted whole tone scale where two of the degrees have multiple close steps that produce dissonance when played together. There are no perfect fifths, but there enough other simple consonances that it is still possible to create stable chords, particularly if you make good use of the four 5/4's around the scale.
