That was my initial idea as well, but before making the post on the forum, I wanted to see Lance Tschirhart’s system for binary. I encountered this post of his:
In the original Shadow System post, I described the rules for a theoretical 10-digit binary system in the form of
1-3-3-3 or 0-3-3-3. If the first digit was 0, you would use the original image. If the first digit was a 1, you would use the shadow image.To use it, you would have to build the full 2704 shadow system, so it scores no points over the Ben System in that respect. The reading of the 1’s and 0’s is so hard to get out of your mind that for as long as I practiced it, which wasn’t very long I admit, I couldn’t help but read 4 chunks of information instead of 3. In short, it was vastly inferior to Ben’s formulation
After reading this, I thought leaving the 1 to the end would fix the problem he experienced, but I honestly didn’t even understand what he meant to begin with. Have you experienced his problem during practice?
Me too. Just his post that made me apprehensive.
Thanks, Tim! It’s funny that every time I got a good idea, you were already applying a similar one, haha
Oh, I didn’t know that at all. I thought most people who created 3-digit lists were trying to expand their PAO, but it seems that it’s out of fashion these days.
2Blockbinary System sounds nice too, haha
