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...

I see no reason why NOT to put the ruletable on the wiki, so I did and it should work now.

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.

Is there a pair of rules which are like maze with mice and mazectric with mice but with extra "cats" that can eat mice?

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)
