Re: Forum that I am not authorised to read
I’d also personally like me and Aura to have permissions to read the „The Book Of Life” forum (not the Moderator Discussion one), so that we could know more about the process of constructing a CA textbook so that we could have more ideas for Conway’s Story Mode puzzles. I'm not sure it would be ter...

Now, the question. Why don’t they just use private messaging? And why are they hiding these from us? The PHPBB private messaging system is horrible. Forum threads are searchable.

Re: (Engineered) diehards
This one has an extra 144 generations over Calcyman's, and I rephased the queen bees by 6 generations to compensate (144+6=150=5*30; we don't need to alter the fuses because 144=6*24), allowing for two more pink delays (another 240): This was actually mine and Calcyman’s. APG made the optimisation,...
