ShortCoreAMAYL

Unknown difficulty schedule

This schedule has only been done by somewhat few individuals, and as such, the true difficulty is not yet determined. Please attempt only if you have experience.

It is known that this schedule is viable long-term.

If you attempt this schedule, please report back in an issue (-> contributing) or at .

ShortCore-As-Much-As-You-Like is an extremely flexible, although often impractical schedule where shortcores (1.5h cores) may be slept at any time of day/night, with no other sleep. It can be regarded as Coreless-AMAYL-Modified, though due to using cores, will never be able to reach as low a TST. For SCAMAYL to work, cores must be somewhat spaced out.

TST	3-7.5h
Cores	AMAYL
Naps	0
Difficulty	3? / 5
RSR Difficulty	2? / 5
Flex-potential	Natural

Proposed Mechanism

The adaptation for SCAM differs based on which TST is being aimed for.

When 4 or 5 cores are used frequently, it is likely that the mechanism is based almost entirely on reducing anystage-pressure variance by sleeping more frequently but for shorter durations.

When heavy reduction is done (4.5h TST or less), the mechanism is different. At these TSTs, ls-compression is mandatory, and cores mirroring naps become likely, leading to cores filled with a single big chunk of a single vital stage. Deepening is also necessary in sleepers without RSR.

Lifestyle

SCAMAYL is quite challenging due to requiring no long blocks of uninterruptible activities, with lots of space (at least 100m) between blocks. This makes it incompatible with most work/school schedules.

Scheduling headroom

SCAM is completely flexible, so no scheduling needs to be done.
