Re: Notation for George Secor's High-Tolerance Temperament
A fourth message defining the fifth itself and noting a number of commas of the temperament appears here , which is linked to from the sagittal.org homepage. In order for this temperament's commas to have a 12edo keyspan of zero, 8:11 has to be an augmented—not perfect—fourth (:(|): = P1; :/|\: = A1...

Re: How best to use directed comma names
If we put a nickel in a jar every time one of us edited each other's post instead of quoting it, we'd be... well, we'd probably have about a 7C by now. ...You mean, like, 240edo nickels? (Also I just love doing things 5.5 times...) I think the apotome should be called "3A". If :/||\: is 1...

for discontinuous capture zones. I don't know what to make of it.




I don't either. Now we have capture zones with gaps in them. Great.

Re: Magrathean diacritics
[Tables elided] Something tells me that 1/(limit - x) - 1/limit isn't a good fit for some of these... Thanks for making those tables. I agree, it looks useless when applied to the 3-exponent. But not so bad on the error. I could be wrong, but I think @volleo6144 might have been saying that if we cr...

It also seems like the post icons are only available in some boards (the two in "Just for fun"), for some reason.cmloegcmluin wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 6:06 am This is the first time I ever noticed someone using the "Post Icon" feature. I still haven't used the signature feature either.

Re: Emoji-ttal
This happens on iOS when a font (such as Bravura) using specific code points in the U+E000..U+F8FF range fails to load. iOS first had emoji in 2.2, a year or so before Unicode officially added them. They were mapped to "Private Use Area" (6400 code points at U+E000..U+F8FF; there's also su...

Re: A proposal to simplify the notation of EDOs with bad fifths
Done.
- Added 5 at the top.
- Removed vertical whitespace. (For some reason I was using the size of a group as the vertical spacing instead of the size of a box on the first one.)
- Stopped at 240 instead of 306. (237 [group 196/25] and 239 [group 33/4] are in the 41st row.)
