Capitalization (Blockic, Blockish) would only make sense if it was a derivative, linguistically, of capital-B Block. Since we're aiming for "of or relating to a lowercase-b block" a lowercase-b "blockic/blockish" makes more sense in my opinion.

That's the Book of Life subforum -- screenshot already given above -- about three and a half years' worth of conversations between me and Nathaniel, gradually figuring out how to patch the book together.

Sorry for deep nercro on this thread, but I think this community is smart enough not to care and my post is relevant.

How do you make an animated CGOL pattern as your profile picture?

Now that this is a separate subforum (is that the word?) I think it's time to pin this thread.

Welcome to the forums! Remember to enclose your RLEs in <code> tags and not <viewer> tags, like so:

Common sense suggests that everyone who edits pages is an editor, and being able to edit pages does not imply any extended access such as deletion of pages. I think something like "page deleter" would be better for this purpose. I'd suggest a simpler route, with something along the lines of 'sysop'...

Right now, I feel like having that thread locked is an insult to me.

Assuming you mean the "100 Reasons Reloaded" thread: how is it an insult to you specifically? Also, what's the deal with the "Lock this as soon as possible" thread?

Are there cellular automata with this neighbourhood?

Did you mean the 8x18 unit cell with single-cell padding that is shown, or a domino unit cell?

edit: replaced "spacing" with "padding", more clear that way. By the way, does anyone know how you format strikethrough?
