Do people have 2 PAO systems?

currently i am developing the dominic PAO system like this and also another PAO system for alphabets like this

NUMERIC PAO

Number / Initials Person Action Object
1 (A) Andre serving hard with a tennis racket
2 (B) Bilbo slipping on the One Ring
3 (C) Charlie twirling around a bamboo cane
4 (D) Donald quacking angrily in a sailor suit
5 (E) Emperor Palpatine shooting lightning from fingertips

ALPHABETIC PAO

Letter Person Action Object
A Apollo shooting golden bow
B Batman throwing batarang
C Ciel executing black keys
D Dio Brando stopping time with a steamroller

so i have two questions the first about the dominic system (numeric) PAO do you guys use like 01 02 03 or simply 1 2 3 for the first nine numbers if you guys use 1 2 3 then what happens when it includes digits that starts with lets say 05 do you link 0 with 5 then the third one would be object .

the second question is that i feel a little messy since theres a numeric and alphabetic PAO system currently . I feel like it would be better to only have one since it would be less messy .Any ideas on how to fix this

I have never made an alphabet PAO. That sounds like a fun one. Why cant you just the same images? Say Andre for the Alphabet PAO?

I have made alphabet places and alphabet pegs. But not an alphabet PAO.

I think I was a bit greedy :broken_heart::broken_heart::broken_heart:

Because my Dominic system 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 are uses abcdesghn ,it doesn’t cover other alphabets so I went and did alphabet pao :man_facepalming:t2::man_facepalming:t2::man_facepalming:t2:and it ended up complicated a simple thing

Idk what I should do now because initially I made the alphabet pao to associate words where imagery actions are hard to recall the specific word

I got you. I would pick a favourite show or movie or book or sport and pick alphabet images from that. Start with the ‘P’ and then figure out A and O ontop of that. Sounds like that is what you were doing!

Some people do. I’ve known people that have a PAO for numbers and one for cards. If you want to use the same you could just match the number to the letter. For example, your images for 5 could double up as your images for E.

Tbh I wouldn’t even create a PAO for the alphabet, like, what’s the point? Memorizing things verbating? I’ve always thought that was a pointless exercise. And even if I wanted to do it, I think there are better ways than using a PAO (like the first letter method).

For your first question. I use 00-99. I also have 9 people to represent 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900.
