Re: LifeWiki and INT-WIKI -- OCA notability policy, etc.
This is a new discussion thread created via Moderator Shenanigans, on a topic that started with this "Should there be an OCA notability policy?" question: (snip) Woah! Time traveling moderator shenanigans... As for the actual question, I have very little horse in this race so-to-speak. It seems obv...

Re: One Dimensional Billiard Ball Diffusion Automata
I see no reason why NOT to put the ruletable on the wiki, so I did and it should work now.

Re: LifeWiki Trusted Account Request Thread - Post requests here
https://conwaylife.com/wiki/User:%E3%80%8Eilo_Lisipo%E3%80%8F I gave myself a silly name to get around Mediawiki restrictions on capital letters 8) Relatedly, there doesn't appear to be a notability policy on rules/OCA other than the GNG. Should there be? There are plenty of rules with no article t...

Re: New rule: Magnezones (B3/S123678)
Magnezones is also a good candidate for implementing variant colorings. We could color all "on" cells with one of four different colors depending on whether their (x,y) coordinates are even or odd. The four types of crystals will then be easily discernible, even when zoomed out very far, because ea...

Re: Thread for basic questions
What constitutes a "good" / "interesting" spaceship partial? Example: Here's a (3,1)c/8 partial I've got lying around. It's obviously not revolutionary or anything, but how much should I care about it? x = 19, y = 28, rule = B3/S23 3bo$2b3o$2o2bo$o3b2o$3bo$bo5bo$b2ob4o$6bob2o$b4o2b2obo$10b3o$9bo2bo$...

Is there a pair of rules which are like maze with mice and mazectric with mice but with extra "cats" that can eat mice? The question you're asking doesn't make any sense to me, but in my half-asleep post exam fugue state I've lazily meshed together the corpses of Mazelectric and Bliptile to bring y...

I THINK I FOUND A NEW STILL LIFE!!!!
I was messing around in golly and found something that looked like a smaller version of pond. Correct me if i'm wrong, but I don't think it's on the still life wiki page. (http://conwaylife.com/wiki/Category:Still_lifes)
