B3/S013
This is a rule that quickly settles into single dots, dominoes, duoplets (small diagonal strokes), and oscillators. I would also like to have a census of this, partly because even 1000 by 1000 random soups typically stabilize within 500 generations, and usually less than that. I currently have oscil...

Re: switch
Oh, yeah. I was only looking at the top PD, so that's probably where the confusion came in. But do you like my PD? I personally think it's very nice, though it takes a long time to recover, but the MWSS is unaffected, and it uses an elegant method (a Herschel) to reconstruct the ship.

The p690 pulse divider is not technically stable, because it uses a narrow range of periods.

Re: switch
Well, do you mean stable circuitry or periodic circuitry? Periodic circuitry has the advantage in that it is smaller that stable circuitry, but stable circuitry can use even the most ungainly periods like 19 (except that it often takes far too long to reset). What to do in each case: Stable: Probabl...

The Moving Racetrack
I'm thinking of making a moving c/2-speed racetrack. (See p30-racetrack.rle and p46racetrack.rle) It will be one-way, (because it's moving at the maximum speed possible in Life) but that doesn't matter all that much to me. Could I have a list of components?
