An 11-odd-limit Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 9/8 9/7 11/8 11/7 99/56 2/1, with steps of 9/8 8/7 77/72 8/7 9/8 112/99. This is a warped version of the whole tone scale, with 5 notes slightly wider than 200 cents and the 6th one compressed to compensate. This means it does not approximate common practice music at all, but whole tone songs can be translated into it and gain a distinct character while still being recognisable.
