Yes, the alpha programming in Ascension is going to come across as much stronger because of the “one-pointed” nautre of the script, as opposed to Ascended Mogul’s multi-faceted goals. That’s not to say that Ascended Mogul is weaker. It’s just that script is much longer, and there’s more information for your subconscious to digest, so it takes a bit more time for it to settle in.
I’m glad you’re enjoying the program, though. Are you running Ascension or Ascension ex Machina?
