For those who don't know, Edgic is a combination of the words 'editing' and 'logic', as it's a system of abbreviated letters used for subjectively describing how the editing of a reality tv show looks. When devising it, you start out with ratings of these abbreviations:

UTR - Under the radar - you have little content shown
MOR - Middle of the road - you have content present but you're not very complex or over the top
OTT - Over-the-top - you're an over-the-top, practically cartoonish presence who is very exaggerated
CP - Complex personality - you drive the story, you're a very detailed person who we see a lot of the thought process about and/or learn a lot of things about, whether it be from your perspective, or the long-winded ways others describe you.

The next letter of abbreviation is tones. These are not a necessity, but they are common.

P - Positive - you're a positive presence
M - Mixed - you're a mixed presence of positive and negative attributes
N - Negative - you're a negative presence
PP - Extremely Positive
NN - Extremely Negative

And then there's your visibility of how present you are on a scale of 1-5, with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest.

Thus the results of every possible rating + tone are

UTR
UTRP
UTRM
UTRN
MOR
MORP
MORM
MORN
OTT
OTTP
OTTM
OTTN
CP
CPP
CPM
CPN

With PP and NN being an uncommon, but still possible add-on to these, probably only the OTTP, OTTN, CPP and CPN initials. In actual tables, these are all color-coded.
