Shannon's Journal Discussion

[Shannon]

Still thinking about releasing it early to people that skipped v2? If so, I'm in on Wednesday, Thursday or both.

We shall see about that when I have had a little sleep. Brain is mush right now.

[chaosvrgn]

It'd be awesome. I have a date on Wednesday and a meetup on Thursday (the same one I went to when I first started running v1). Plan on doing Uber after both... that is, unless Wednesday's date ends with me reaching the "program's goal."

That means f*ckin' -- for the youngins.

[Shannon]

I still have to calculate usage patterns. Too tired for that right now. These 5.5G programs are getting to be so complex that just building the script into a completed program may start being a multi-day process if this keeps up!

[RTBoss]

I coulda sworn Shannon reiterated no 5G and up are to be used together, period?

[Shannon]

I'm sure Chaos won't be the only one to volunteer for demonstrating why it's a bad idea...

Person #1: Hey man, I heard chaosvrgn's about to break the rules, not follow instructions, expose himself to a dangerous situation and just live life with no limits. Again.

Person #2: In other news, water is wet.

That didn't stop ya'll from enjoying my v1 antics. Let's not get pious now.

Shannon, do you think it'd be more effective to rotate AM6 and E2 (6 months)? Or do you think it would be more effective to run E2 for a long time like a year and then just run AM6 after that for awhile?

Do you think it's a good thing to let a program have a solid focus for a long time to go deeper or do you think it's good to just rotate every so often so things don't get too stale and also to not let things become unbalanced?

Edit: also this question could be posed for SM3 and AM6. Should you run AM6 for a long time and then work on SM3 for a long time? Or should you rotate them and work on them together?

Good question for the BASE users as well. If it is best to do 6 months BASE 1 month E 2, and do that over and over then I'd definitely be up for that.

Prom&gratuduation night on saturday (not mine) and didn't use v2.1 for a few days already. So good testing ground for DMSI v2.2. Early release would be appreciated

Would testosterone supplement usage conflict with E2? To me it seems like they wouldn't align very well.

[bogdy]

Testosterone supplements?
How old are you?

Nice leap of logic, calling me pious because I made an observation. Even if it worked for you, n=1 doesn't mean shit. All it's going to do is amp others up to run two 5G+ programs simultaneously, possibly ruin their runs, and set a poor precedent for the future. Do it if you want after it's released, but getting special treatment to do something - wait for the piousness - *stupid!* (that's a limit by the way) - is something else.

And yeah, it is interesting to see people line up in anticipation of possibly watching you hurt yourself. Nice.

I have a dope, fat @$$ officer's commission waiting for me in the Air Force reserve if I choose to take it. Rank of Captain, student loan forgiveness, intelligence MOS. It's pretty bad@$$. But... every time I tell someone about I'm considering taking it, they get this sh*t eating grin and say:

"You're gonna get deployed."
To which I reply: "No sh*t, that's the prime function of the military."

P.S. I never asked for "special treatment." Shannon mentioned a few pages back that he's considering releasing it early for people who didn't do v2--

Ohhhhh wait. I know what this is.

If you have a problem with what he's considering, make your arguments to him. Don't try to use me as your whipping boy to get a point across. If he releases it and my date comes through, I'm running it and I'm journaling about it. It's going to happen. It's an inevitability. There's no use in even arguing it with me. Do you argue with the sun for rising in the morning?

Guys, why does it only take some words to get you all worked up? As much as I appreciate all the points of view you roll out when you get going, it needlessly roughs you up and divides you. There are guidelines laid out here to get the most out of the subs, but they do not bind anyone to follow them like they are natural law. Anyone wants to take a sidetrack to check out something? So what? It will alter the intended result, sure. As long as you are aware of it, no problem.

There is no need to reiterate the same flaming discussion over and over again. Live and let live. And curiously observe whatever happens.

[Roy]

Please keep the discussion civilized and relevant.
