I appreciate the words, Mini. I guess I'm the poster boy for following the current doctrine to a tee, pulling massive hours per stage to really push the doctrine to the limit. So, logic stands, that I should be seeing a massive return for all of that, but yet, the run has been very tame.
Also, I did somewhat equivalent hours on AM6, a little bit less than this SM3 run in fact. However, I noticed something happening slightly "in the real world", near the last bit of the program, most of the run was also relatively quiet also aside from dreams here and there. However, once the program was done running and I'd moved onto SM3, it seemed more and more of AM6's programming started billowing out.
Maybe the same will prove true for SM3. I'm not sure why I didn't notice so much DURING runs. Maybe this theory is indeed correct. That the program's massive hours per stage I was pulling just ended up after awhile causing my mind to use all energy to stonewall and not execute the script, after being spammed by the same script after my massive hours eradicated all the existing programming. Only to be able to start executing AFTER the script changed. It's a reasonably accurate depiction of my experience, but I'm nowhere near an expert in this arena. I can only relay my experience doing runs and let others draw conclusions. I will say though, that I remember posts saying Shannon developed multi-stages because he noticed that some people stonewall after getting the same script after awhile. So he introduced multi-stages to break large scripts up to cut down on that. Also, the same research that single stages can also be stonewalled by some people after awhile and to cycle them out. So...there may indeed be something to this, Mini.
However, I'm with you in the fact that if a sub is massively stronger than older subs, it makes sense that the time needed to use it should be less. I just always assumed there was some sort of reason for why things were left status quo. Maybe it can be revisited, who knows, I'd be open to that. Anything to help my SM3 assimilation is okay in my book haha!
