- We have only two people who can test it, and both are seriously involved in LTRs they want to keep, so both of them are the worst possible option for testing this program to see how it would respond to being used by the actual intended audience (guys who are free to actually respond to interested women). This is why it's taking so long. However, our only tester suitable for testing these won't be able to test until August, and testing will be over by then.
Hey Frankie! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
I don't know, it's just been awhile since a release or news, so I wanted to see what was going on and hopefully nothing bad happened that set him back etc. And I wanted to report a possible TID experience too, that's now 4 nights in a row. Which is extremely unusual for me, so I felt it worth noting as possible TID in case one of those programs was being released after all and him not talking in his journal for awhile due to intense work would make sense.
I LMAO'd so hard at that post I made you referenced and Shannon's reply. He didn't get the joke, oof. @Benjamin will, I think. Enjoy mate, haha. https://subliminal-talk.com/Thread-Shannon-s-Journal-Discussion-Thread-Vol-8?pid=264586#pid264586

Quite simply, audio is not standard across devices so I needed a more workable solution.

What I do is, I have a listening device. PC with headphones, or a speaker for example. Then, I have a second device, my phone with a reliable decibel meter app that I've proved can measure your ultrasonic frequencies, then I adjust as necessary to get it to max out at like 70 decibels. Which, according to the ASHA, is the loudest "safe" volume that can be listened to as long as you want without issue. So I be conservative and make sure to ensure the hearing is safe, but have a standardised system now regardless of device. May not be perfect, but it works and is safe.
Maybe you should have a similar guideline, with an app that is accurate in general, but also able to accurately measure ultrasonic, of course. Perhaps someday, you could expand and have an app for IML to get around this. And bundle it with programs, that would be fantastic and would help aid people. Maybe as you like to have specific volume levels, certain "presets" could occur for the programs and be workable and accessible for users to make happen on their end reliably. Maybe instead of just a decibel meter, it could incorporate a media player as well in the app so it's an all-in-one solution. Food for thought. Hopefully it helps.
Also, I did have some results I think on 1511. I think it may be further along than you may think for many. 1600 would be a dream come true. I really think it's worth building now, truthfully. The idea of spending many more months uncovering every last piece of GSF in my life, even everything that has nothing to do with why I came here, instead of building on the possible foundation 1511 gave me is not the path I wish to take. Everyone has different sticking points, and I feel I was closer than I have been before with 1511. I am positive 1600 can get me there. I know you said earlier that it won't take long to make because it's build is already very close to 6G, I guess. It may not take much to finish upgrading it, that makes sense. I'd be so grateful, Shannon, truly. I really think it's the key for me to take that next step.
That said, I wonder what you've been up to lately. We havent heard of a release, I thought you were thinking of what to make next and you seemed to be leaning to OGSF. Just wanted to ask what you've been up to.
Hope all is well and the heavens are manifesting ribeyes! "Manifest Your Perfect RibEye 6G"
Well, I noticed awhile ago that I was getting louder sound on the left side of headphones than right, and I came to the conclusion that rather than it being the headphones, it's more likely than not my actual hearing. Especially across different devices. Might be time to get it checked, if the thought didn't occur to you.

Hey man!
Oh don't get me wrong, if I use any other video or audio with those sources, it defaults to a normal distribution of sound, totally centered. Only with the subs do they tend to skew to the right, for some reason. So, given that the other files I may play over time are solid, and my hearing is extremely strong and I'm grateful for that, I wanted to report it. I think some others have mentioned the right side audio skew in the sub files, I don't remember their names but I have mentioned it awhile back. I just wanted Shannon to know again while audio concerns came up recently, it may help him.
I hope you're doing good man, good luck with 6G!

Just asking, are you now imminently planning on releasing X4A-1600 or DMSI 6G? I ask because the last 3 nights in a row I've had dreams directly related to those programs and women. That's highly bizarre for me, I rarely if ever dream of those situations and women. Thought maybe it's the TID you've spoke of occurring, since it's so far out of my normal dreams etc., and wanted to report it to you just in case.
I also have the same question as Catman and also in anticipation for it but to add to this when can we expect to see attract a wife with x y x qualities in 6g or just an ideal partner like we had in 4g. Would like a long term partner within the next 2 years so would be nice to see these subs.
Also Shannon congrats on 6G been here since 2015 and I remember we used to talk about it back then and here we are =D

Shannon Wrote:My apologies to everyone for disappearing. I ended up crashing from exhaustion and had to hide for a while to recover and prevent burnout. I was planning to start back on the 21st, but now it appears I'm getting sick... again, for the second time in 3 weeks. 2024 was the worst year of my life for getting sick, I spent more than 3 months sick in 2024, and I was hoping it would not continue, but that does not appear to be the case so far.
I'm still able to work (Thanks, MIR!), but I may have to stop where I am. If I do, I have something to publish, but it's not what I planned. If things work out in my favor, well, there might be a surprise. But that's only going to be possible this month if I can keep myself from getting sick.
When I come back, you'll need to excuse my inability to go back and read everything that's been said since I have been gone. There's just too much to do to keep up with everything after being away for effectively two weeks. I usually have trouble after just one. So when I am fully back, if there's anything you want me to see, please point me to it or re-post it. I'll let you guys know when I am fully back.
RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8 - Frosted - 02-23-2025
Welcome back Shannon! I don’t envy you with the workload you’re likely dealing with.
RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8 - Catman - 02-28-2025
Greetings, @Shannon, I hope you are getting what sounds like much-needed rest. That sounded quite intense.
It's the end of the month, I hope you've been able to catch your breath. I know you told us if you were able to recover, it'd sounded like two programs would be released this month. And that worst case, you have one ready to go at a minimum, but that it wasn't the one you planned to release. Which, I'm assuming based off your words before, was OGSF 6G.
I'm deeply curious Shannon, now that it's the end of the month today, which 1 or 2 programs do we have to support you through, today?

RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8 - Shannon - 02-28-2025
I was forced to work all night long last night and then get up early today to get OGSF v3 out today, so I'm wiped. But I am not sick anymore. So been working my butt off since I stopped being sick. I'll post more and read more later. But @CatMan on X4A-2000:
The requirements for X4A-2000 to pass testing were not met during three months of testing, primarily because testing was an absolute shit show of circumstances that couldn't have been worse. We came very close to having it pass testing on multiple occasions, but each time circumstances forced pulling the rip cord before there was a request for or an offer of sex. In some cases, the tester was forced to shut the woman down because he was taken and didn't want to risk having things go too far. In some cases, women responded in ways we didn't expect, which we shut down results from on moral grounds.
To give you an idea... during one of my tests, I went to have dinner at a local wings bar and had a couple on their first date sitting next to me. He was sitting between us, and she was more and more responsive. When her date went to the bathroom, she made it abundantly clear to me that she was very interested in having me come home with her to give her a very deep, hard and rough time. I of course had to pull the rip cord before she outright asked for that because...
A) She was with another man. Homey don't play dat.
B) She was on her first date with another man. Homey definitely don't play dat.
C) She was drunk. Homey sure as HELL don't play dat!
D) And most importantly, I am involved in an LTR with a woman who trusts me enough to be comfortable with me doing this sort of testing, and our relationship is extremely important and valuable to me. I am not about to come home and have to explain that, sorry dear, you can't trust me anymore because some random drunk woman got handsy with me, kissed me or somehow got parts of me touching intimate parts of her (or vice versa) before I realized what she was doing because I didn't shut her down in time. Trust like I have with my current girlfriend is a one shot deal, and I'm absolutely not going to blow it for anyone or anything.
All but one of the testers had at least one experience during testing that could have resulted in sex, if it had been allowed to progress. But in every case, there was something wrong, and we had to pull the rip cord and shut her down before she outright asked... or refuse when she outright asked for moral reasons. I could not count that as success because it was not what I had originally set as the requirements for that program to pass testing. And I ran out of time to work on it.
With what we learned from testing 2000, X4A is still being developed, but 6G development and now building in 6G has taken priority. I have also kept you all in the dark for some important reasons. When we have something to offer you that is worth what I am going to charge for it, you'll know. But be aware that the next X4A is going to be built in 6G-Final, and it will be a Premium. And I am not going to publish something that interesting and that expensive unless I know for sure that it works like I say it does. No matter how much money I have to give up on by not publishing it.
RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8 - Frosted - 02-28-2025
@Shannon Congratulations on another 6G release! I’m excited to see it’s OGSF3! The minimal listening requirements and volume are insane! 3 months is the perfect amount. Hopefully I’ll be able to run AM7 without being the last one to the party lol.
I’ve got two questions:
1. I’m currently running OGSF2 and was wondering if I could take a week or two off and switch to OGSF6G with minimal problems? Edit: can I get by with only a couple days off? I’m impatient, but I’ll wait if you highly recommend it.
2. In your post above mine you say “6G final”. Does that mean the current 6G is not fully developed yet? Or did I just misinterpret you saying X4A will be finalized in 6G? (I’m referencing your last paragraph.)
RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8 - Benjamin - 02-28-2025
Quote:The minimal listening requirements and volume are insane!
I know, especially for us who have been here since the early generations when we were trying to listen massive amounts. My response to Shannon when he told me it's 10 minutes of listening was "Hahaha what the fuck!".
I also like that the amount of months have gone down, of course I know that doesn't mean for everyone you'll just listen 3 months and it will do all of the work needed, but it's promising going down from 6 months on v2, 9 months on past similar programs of the previous generations. It's more doable and easier to maintain, like "oh i'm at 2 months I can continue another 4 weeks" as opposed to "ok there's 7 months left".
The very low volume is especially interesting. I look forward to doing 6g.
2 months and nearly a week on PM, when I read the OGSFv3 page something told me I should be doing it but then I was like "Ok I can last 3 more weeks on PM, since my initial planned usage that I told myself i'd commit to was 3 months". And I realized if I stop PM now to do OGSF than it makes it easier to stop OGSF at say 2 months instead of doing 3, and I need to give myself this knowing that I can do what I committed to.
RE: Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8 - kserenyi - 02-28-2025
Hey Shannon
Have you ever thought about contracting another company to make an affordable FLAC player just for running your subliminals? This would remove any confusion about volume levels, and the player could also be optimized to stream subscriptions from the site.

1. You should take at least a week off.
2. 6G-Alpha was used to verify the concepts worked, and that it was safe to use, as well as getting some initial handle on what needed to be added, removed or adjusted. From that knowledge, I developed 6G-Beta, and tested that, and from what I learned from 6G-Beta, I developed 6G-Final. I am publishing in 6G-Final because it's no longer in testing and verification.
