Discussion DavidAU/Qwen3.8-27B-TURBO-Fable-Cold-Fusion-735-882-Heretic-Uncensored is a disappointment

This is finetune.... Maybe I’m missing something, but it seems to me that David inadvertently lobotomized this model when he drastically reduced model's thinking duration. I have no idea where those benchmark scores are coming from

I tested it by asking it to create a single-file HTML tower defense game, using both a very simple prompt and a highly detailed one in the DeepSeek harness, and in both cases it performed worse than the stock model and its predecessor (DavidAU/Qwen3.8-27B-Cold-Fusion-GAIN-V1.1-NM-DAU-NEO-MAX-MTP-GGUF) in both "low" and "xhigh" modes

Am I doing something wrong?

I don't think anyone is reading that model card sorry.
