We need to talk about how remote viewers connect to the target under blind and double-blind conditions.

Context: I provide verifiable targets in a forum thread.

➡️ https://www.farsightprime.com/forums/remote-viewing-practice-forum/78757-verifiable-targets

The target coordinates work like this: [thread_id]-T[target_number](-F[focus_number])

For example, 78757-T2-F3 points to the third focus (F3) of the second target (T2) provided in the forum thread.

The forum user Edward conducted two sessions with two different AIs as remote viewers. Edward is also blind to the targets provided in the forum thread, which means that the sessions were conducted under double-blind conditions.

Observation 1: Edward published his remote viewing data under the first target (T1).

Observation 2: Edward chose to alter the target coordinates (T1-ty48du38-F0 instead of 78757-T1).

Note: I stored the target wording in a file on my computer within the folder "../Documents/Farsight/78757-verifiable-targets". The file T1.txt starts with 78757-T1 for the target coordinates. When writing the target wording, my intention was to connect this target to the respective forum thread with the id 78757.

Observation 3: The remote viewing data clearly is on target, with some differences in perception and focus between the two remote viewers (probably due to difference in experience).

BUT: The data doesn't match T1. The target they viewed is a different target from the forum thread. I will not reveal the target right now. Instead, I'd like to work out first why the viewers didn't arrive at T1.

@Edward: What exactly was your intention when changing the target coordinates?

After reading your post, I would say the target was a miss. That is the simplest explanation.

According to my experience, target coordinates are used only for archival purposes. When I use a target from the Farsight website or Lyn Buchanan's target pool, I always get a different target ID than the one provided on the website. Sometimes I even do sessions without a target ID, because the intention is directed at the target, not at a piece of paper.

As for the sessions, at the moment I use Gemma 4 31B. However, I had a hypothesis that you could swap models and the viewer's skills would remain the same, as long as you used the same API key. So far, it seems I may have been wrong about that.

My point is that, unfortunately, the session missed the T1 target because that was the target I intended to view. As far as I know, changing the target ID does not affect the session.
