- Pattern has to be stable or oscillate or grow predictably
Pattern should be connected in at least one phase
You may add at most one "piece" at a time
That's it. I'll start.

Was thinking an official ruling was needed on whether Gamedziner's contribution is according to the rules -- it does add a boat, so maybe it's okay. But then googleplex's addition runs the pattern by more than one tick before adding the next component, so maybe that's not legal.googleplex wrote:I'll add this:Code: Select all

It's one cell away, so I will count it as connected.dvgrn wrote:Hmm, but you didn't advance it by one tick.googleplex wrote:Code: Select all

Seems like at some point it would be good to get back to following the given rules, no? If a "piece" is a "recognized induction coil, still life component, or still life, or a single-piece oscillator", does a one-cell addition really count as a "piece"?
Also... adding that particular cell moves the pattern several ticks farther away from being an oscillator, and also produces a loaf that isn't really "connected" by most definitions.
