Am I the only one bothered by alignment chart memes that just throw nine random things in a grid instead of having some consistency regarding what is good, evil, lawful or chaotic?

It just takes a few tweaks to make something at least moderately consistent.

And see, I'd swap your Lawful Neutral and True Neutral, as then all the neutrals would feature one long bed edge placed against a wall.

That would also make sense, it would just be changing the pattern.*

In mine, Lawful is center aligned with one side touching a wall. Chaotic is tilted to touch corners to walls instead of sides. Good is head towards walls and foot towards the interior. Evil is foot towards walls and head towards the interior. And true neutral... is not bound by any of these rules.


* A pattern that would be based on the idea that neutral should be a defined side, one that presents its own rules in each dimension of the chart, rather than merely being the absence of one of the other alignment dichotomies. If this were just about chart making, I would support that as I like things to be orderly, but because this is alignment I stick with what I believe to be the better representation of that system.

I guess I'm lawful neutral good now

Yes! It's stupid how many of them just throw random shit in without thinking about what would make sense.
