Original Wikitext content:

The [2,3,5]-[[Just intonation subgroups|subgroup]] comma for the gamelismic clan is the gamelisma, 1029/1024, with monzo |-10 1 0 3>. For any member of the clan, and for the gamelismic temperament itself, this means three 8/7 intervals give a fifth, 3/2. In fact, we find that 3/2 = (8/7)^3 * 1029/1024. From this it follows that gamelismic temperaments tend to flatten the both fifth and the 7/4, or if they do not, the other of the pair must be flattened even more.
[[36edo]] is a good tuning for gamelismic itself, though if the full 7-limit is desired, [[72edo]], [[77edo]] or [[118edo]] might be preferred. 

==Full seven limit children==
To the gamelisma itself we need to add the comma which appears next on the modified [[Normal lists|normal comma list]], which is often a 5-limit comma. The second comma on the list for mothra is 81/80, for rodan 245/243, for guiron 32805/32768, for gorgo 36/35, and for gidorah 256/245. These all use 8/7 as a generator, though in the case of gidorah that's the same as 6/5. Miracle adds 33075/32768 and uses the secor, half an 8/7, as generator. Lemba adds 525/512 to the list, and has a half-octave period. Valentine adds 6144/6125 with a generator of 21/20 and superkleismic adds 875/864 with a generator of 6/5. Unidec adds 4375/4374, and has a generator of 10/9 with a half-octave period. Hemithirds adds 65625/65536 with a generator half of a major third. Finally, tritikleismic adds 15625/15536 and has a generator of 6/5 with a 1/3 octave period.
