Re: "Extended" Generations rules
muzik, Carefully read this post: https://conwaylife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3479#p62281 It is possible to sprinkle rule table rows with states other than those used to define a generations rule. I call such rules 'modified generations rules' and provide a button to generate and test them. Br...

Re: Thread for your website-related questions
Sadly now only 1255 members. I would like to see: . how many of these contribute regularly by posting rules, patterns and software tools; . how many simply organize and document known information; . and how many have moved on to other things because they are no longer interested. Brian Prentice

Re: Random posts 2
I have observed that your reaction towards that particular OCA board status-summary/future-organization-proposal is quite strong. Am I right if I guess that you have some negative opinions to the scheme, and that that it underestimates the importance of your programs/rulespaces accounts for the ove...

Re: Random posts 2
How so? I'm genuinely curious what you're referring to here. I did not invent the BSFKL rules. I was just the first to implement and explore them. Again, what does this mean? Just because you're the article subject does not mean you are the only person who gets to decide what is and is not included...

GUYTU6J, I notice that you liked yujh's post above. Is the following still your opinion?

Both of the above 3 state rules support oscillators with periods 3, 4 and >5. Can anyone find a period 5 oscillator in either rule?

Re: Diaphotons
Yoel,
Nice rule!
Consider adding a still life block using a 4th state as a photon stream stopper. I think this will address Moosey's comment and allow the separation of interesting interactions.
