Re: RCT remaining tasks
I'm usually pretty quiet about what I'm working on, but I've been working on trying to get RCT down to 14, if it's possible, by synthesizing the southwestern-most pair of switch engines in 6 gliders instead, using a method like this: x = 1724, y = 1729, rule = B3/S23 1722bo$1721bo$1721b3o759$768bo$7...

Re: Thread for basic questions
I feel like such a pattern exists, and could possibly be done via some weird UC encoding that somehow ends up constructing its recipe but with glider predecessors like this: x = 12, y = 5, rule = B3/S23 bobo6bo$o3bo3bo$2bo4bo2bo$bo7bo$3bo3bo3bo! ...But that feels less satisfying than a small example...

Re: Discord
You may have been banned. If you PM me (or post) your Discord handle I can look it up and see.
I feel like that's not the case though, because if someone's banned it typically says that the invite was expired, not throw an error.
