Emperor is still a flagship product. It will be updated as ZPU progresses.
EDIT: Yes, I saw your PM. Will handle that tomorrow.

I was invited last minute to a concert across the border with a group of old male friends yesterday. I was told to meet at the casino near the border and hop in a car for the trip. This is something typically out of my comfort zone. I prefer to drive and be in charge of things usually.
I noticed some apprehension and sat with it briefly. I had this voice inside of me tell me to go and have fun.
I am so glad I went.
I recognized how calm I felt being a passenger while my one friend drove through a downpour tornado warning. I used to have very bad ptsd in cars due to a bad accident with my bf driving in college.
We went for pub food before the show and I felt so relaxed carrying on conversations with people I haven’t seen in over a decade!
I had so much fun enjoying a band I’ve loved since grade 11.
I am sure this title would be much more difficult if I wasn’t so dedicated to my daily spiritual practice.

I am now testing Summertime with WB (replacing WANTED).
Both titles work hard on my self image and social expression.
3 min Summertime + 1 min WB = severe anger recon 
So now I am down to 3 min Summertime + 30 sec WB and the recon is slight to managable.
On the positive side, I am quite productive and Summertime has released some internal blocks within me, i.e. actually living life more practically versus living life scenarios inside my imagination.
My subconscious mind is working hard on core self image issues from the WB script. qOS literally says about WB:
“Significant reconciliation around self-image — your subconscious needs to accept that you deserve this level of desire before it will allow the full expression.”
The “astrological sun healing” vector from Summertime adds to the healing of core issues.
Before people can feel good about wanting me, I need to feel good about wanting myself first.
First Summertime me, then Summertime everyone for me

Summertime reports are slowing down a bit outside of journals. As the Summertime effect is now deepening (I can see this emerging in the reports that are coming in), it would be nice for the community to know what it feels like.
As always, I’ll also contribute. This has been a RIDE. I’ve been running it consistently for about 30 days now and wow. Indescribable. So much internal junk has been cleared and I’m actually starting to allow myself to have fun and relax without guilt. I never realized just how “braced” my nervous system was, and how this “unloosening” of my internal life is affecting everything else.
Now, this is a seemingly minor note, but I regularly find deep meaning in the most mundane of things. As @Invictus noted, Summertime has the most ridiculous effects on performance in competitive games (both video games and actual sports). In FPS, what I thought was some kind of fundamental inability with wrist aiming turns out to be an inability to make decisions in those high competitive moments. In other words, I realized that I was panicking too much and had no real control over my reactions.
I noticed it the first time I ran Summertime. I made a couple of crazy flick shots that made me raise an eyebrow, but then this starting intensifying. Since I can’t just relax and enjoy the benefits, I HAD to delve deeper to see what was happening. Again, the outer expression of the inner change may seem mundane, but that doesn’t mean the internal shifts are mundane.
That’s when I began quietly tracking my internal state during the sessions (yes, this is the opposite of what Summertime is trying to achieve, but I still can’t help myself). What I noticed is the presence of a very stable state – coherent – regardless of what was happening on screen. Diminished presence of those tiny emotional fluctuations that occur not just during a gaming session, but throughout life in general.
Any time I tried to do something “mindless” just to relax, there was always this voice in my head urging to go make myself “useful.” That voice has quieted and I can allow myself to just zone out a bit and do something that has no “higher meaning” or related to a “purpose” or “mission.” I can just enjoy something for enjoyment’s sake which I am finding extremely… meaningful or enlightening in a way that I couldn’t have imagined before. And I’m trying not to apply “meaning” to it too much (and I’m assuming this is why many have slowed down on reporting). I just want to let it flow.
My creative output is changing as well. I feel more bold, more innovative but also having an appreciation for the concept of “limits,” or “stability” as a refinement tool. @Fire and I both are very forward thinking, long-term planners – in it for the long haul. Limits is not something we accept that well. You all can see that as well, as we regularly charge forward into the future with our tech. But it’s like… as I become more embodied, or enjoying the simple act of being in a body and letting life flow, I have become appreciative toward “stability.” It is strange, as if I’ve lived the majority of my life in my head and emotions, and now I am settling into a new home – the body. With all its imperfections and troubles… life has just taken on a different flavor.

I slowed down a bit in here with posting because I started feeling self conscious. This sub really loosened me up and I’m able to just speak. But I’m not used to that and the free flowing without too much thought behind it also has a little anxiety tagging behind like “but wait you might say something hurtful, stupid, or too vulnerable”. It’s been a transitional period for me lately.
But I talked about something in my last therapy session. Objectively I’m living through some really difficult things right now. Despite this I’m improving. It’s like I’ve been able to split off and be like “yes those are the circumstances, but they won’t dictate the outcome of my life”. No hype, no attempts to convince myself, I just know my life trajectory is determined by me. I realized too often I looked out into the world for confirmation if something was or wasn’t possible for me. But now it’s balanced. I’m able to understand what really isn’t in my control and not blame myself and using that knowledge to better live my life.
Also my job has gotten much easier because I stopped taking responsibility for things that weren’t my responsibility. Like it’s just not that serious. Some people react like it is, but I just maintain a light-hearted attitude and watch it all blow past me like clouds. It’s like mindfulness but outward and not reacting to events and people. I’m hoping this grows to the point where I can attend job interviews and have zero cares about how I come across. That’s such a numbers game it’s more beneficial to detach from the process, show up, and if they want me they want me. More doing, less thinking is the ultimate goal.

That is so awesome to hear. Do you realize how many years of therapy that would normally take? 
I’ve known that intellectually for a while, but could never actually get it to click to where that was my baseline thought pattern and that’s after a few years of therapy.
I’m looking forward to start using my name embedded version of Summertime. Within a couple of days now.

TOLD YA.
Again I am running Alchemist ST4 and Summertime. 3 min loops every other day (exchanging the subs).
And so I was cruising along with my YT channel (gaming) with about 10 viewers and 20-100 views on the videos. Im new, all normal.
Then after summertime I remember one day I was actually about to stream Mass Effect 3, but then, I had this urge all day to just try Wuthering Waves (which is a gacha game, you know, anime hot cute girls fighting monsters etc).
I was like “meh, is this just horny mode here?”
But I was like “fuck it, I feel like doing it, the characters are hot, I like looking at them, who cares who judges me for that, so trust my inner compass and go with it”
And now it ABSOLUTELY blew up both my channels lol
peaked at 200 viewers yesterday, 2k+ views on each video and people are REALLY enjoying my playthrough as the “chill unc streamer” lol
Was it luck? Coincidence?
Or did the sub just make me play a game I truly enjoy deep down and thus have a great energy on stream?
Again, disclaimer. Summertime does NOT have any business scripting or anything like this. I consider this a side effect of being TRULY myself and focusing on what I TRULY want to do. And of course, radiating that energy of joy outwards.
I assume the combination with Alchemist 4 also helped to make that switch and trust in higher guidance there.
So what I highly recommend with this sub is listen to your heart. That inner intuition. Your mind will try to rationlize or talk you out of it.
Learn to listen to what FEELS right. Its sometimes tough for men to do, but intuition is not just a female thing. Men can utilize this as well!

Summertime has really helped me with my feelings after my break up.
Though I agree that this title gives me substantially more recon than the rest of the subs.

I’m realizing how this title is helping me with the dating app world. Noticing how I feel and not letting my mind convince me otherwise.
When something doesn’t feel right, honour that. I’m highly intuitive. (My mind can be a butthead though depending on protector parts that arise in triggering scenarios. )

@AnswerGroup Since romance is one of the categories for Summertime, what would a custom of NRE Core and Summertime Core look like with Summertime being filtered through NRE? I ask since it’s not your typical romance title.
5 Likes
From qOS:
NRE Core processes all romance-related modules through its framework, manifesting positive romantic scenarios daily. Since Summertime is categorized under romance, NRE would pull Summertime’s qualities — warmth, ease, genuine presence, nervous system settling — into that romantic manifestation engine. Rather than manifesting high-stakes romantic encounters, this pairing would likely produce the kind of romantic moments that feel like they just happened: conversations that linger longer than planned, chance meetings where both people are genuinely relaxed, evenings that become something neither person expected because nobody was steering.
The person running this custom wouldn’t come across as a seducer or a pursuer. They’d come across as someone who is genuinely warm, fully present, and enjoying their life — and that quality of being would be the attractive force. NRE ensures romantic opportunities keep showing up in daily life. Summertime ensures you’re actually enjoying the interaction rather than performing it. There’s no chase energy, no sexual aura projection, no reality bubble — just authentic warmth meeting organic opportunity.
This would suit someone who doesn’t want to become a seduction archetype but does want more romance in their life. Someone whose romantic life is stalled not because they lack skill or confidence, but because they’ve been too tense, too guarded, or too in their head to let connection happen naturally. This pairing addresses that at the root — dissolve the tension, show up warm, and let NRE put you in situations where that warmth naturally becomes romantic.

Results for this title seems very nice, I’ll probably switch out (temporarly) C&C, to focus on RT, WDB and Summertime to lower my stress levels. Or maybe C&C, RT and Summertime, I’ll see.
I’ve been pushing myself mentally and I notice I’m at a point where I get stressed very easily, taking a mental break will be good for me.
Summertime looks like it’s the perfect product for it.
Woohoo. I received my custom double name embedded (first and middle names) version of Summertime (with Mountain Breaker) today. Long story short, the double name was very important because my early life I went by my middle name (after my father was kicked out of my life (a good thing)) and then I changed my first name in my early 20’s. My family and childhood friends still call me by my middle name so both names have importance in my life.
Summertime will be in my 3 title stack which will be:
Listening day 1: Summertime (double name embedded with Mountain Breaker) + Sanguine
Listening day 2: DRR (Dragon Reborn:Regeneration)
I’ve been running DRR since November 2025 and am loving it. I really didn’t want to get rid of GLM (Godlike Masculinity) from my stack because I really like it also, but I need to deal with a shiton of negativity. I do expect some heavy recon (heavy trauma from my childhood and then after effects into adulthood) but I’ve been through a ton of therapy (including DBT, CBT and a couple of others) and have been meditating for a few years.
I do expect Summertime to be a journey, and frankly this is a deep healing stack, but you have to go through the fire to refine your inner core (forging). I plan to run this stack two full rounds and then I’ll run a double name embedded version of RICH Trader in a stack.
The ultimate outcome is be a consistently profitable currency trader which will lead to investing and ultimately entrepreneurship.
I will track results in my journal:

Summertime has me at a critical layer of my journey: the present moment—the simple act of enjoying life and recognizing the abundance already here.
Whether it’s because Extroverted Sensing is my inferior function, or because of the past I survived the only way I knew how—by projecting an impossibly rigid standard of perfection across every domain, just to never feel helpless, weak, or afraid again—this layer runs too deep.
It’s too subtle to even call reconciliation. Yet it’s touching my Achilles’ heel. In the calm and safety Summertime offers, I’m uncovering even deeper strata of what I’ve always avoided and feared. I’m seeing, clearly, just how much I’ve suffered—and I could only grasp the scale of it by contrasting it with how desperately I chased those unrealistic ideals, refusing to settle for anything less.
I chased them so hard that I ended up taking “extra steps”—pretending I’d let go, all while secretly hoping that surrender would finally get me to the destination.
But the present holds more than just an ideal state of flow or the “zone” where everything clicks. It’s the place where the last residues of the pain body surface—the part untouched by self-help, philosophy, hard work, willpower, even the highest highs and greatest victories.
It’s finally safe enough to truly hurt. To grieve. To accept what was done—without justification, compensation, or even meaning.
I haven’t grasped the meaning yet. But I know it won’t be given or earned. It will only come when the stubborn hands of control finally let go.

In my experience Summertime synergies very very well with RICH Trader. The nervous system relaxation and present moment does wonders for trading psychology.
