What I know from reading the posts by the author of FPV suggests that the core of FPV is the algorithm of processing the list (with dots and so on). Just writing a disorganised list of all your tasks and crossing them out hardly seems to come from any specific "system", so I don't know which elements you mean when you say "[...] recognise elements from [FPV]".

I tend to do the same thing as the notches, only I write lttle tick marks.

Today has been a day full of suck and I don't know why but at least I wrote this out.

Haha, feels.
