Rarely attempted schedule
You are probably looking for
M3-Extended, a much more
commonly slept and recommended schedule.
MonoCore 3 is a schedule with a 3h
core, usually in
the
SWS peak. It was invented by Puredoxyk as
Everyman,
later
E3, now
M3, and is extremely or
impossibly difficult for people with around-average sleep needs.

M3-Extended
(Im)possibility
Unlike what past messaging suggests, to many individuals, M3 is not
adaptable. This is because its total sleep time is too low for most to
gain all of their vitals given 20-50% minimum
light-sleep. Individuals
with
RSR or very strong
vital deepening abilities may attempt this
schedule and have a decent chance of succeeding.
A more detailed explanation can be found at M3impossible.
3.5h Variant
Originally, this variant was called E3.5, but is now referred to as M3 as
well. Here, the core is extended to 3h30, resulting in 4h30 of
TST.
This variant has a
difficulty of 4/5 instead of 4-5/5, being possible for
significantly more people without
RSR.
Extension
Extension can make M3 much more viable, in the form of
M3ext.
Origin
This schedule is based on
nap theory and was coined by Puredoxyk. It
was originally just called Everyman before being termed Everyman 3 (based
on the 3h core) and then Everyman 3 (based on the number of naps). Polyinfo
refers to it as MonoCore 3 for consistency with other names and clarity.
