I have just lost 45 000 000 soups of this by uploading at the same time as losing my internet connection. So annoying.

Re: tlife (B3/S2-i34q)

that "8c/282" is actually a pair of forePuffRakes shooting down each other's blocks. I am aware, but with the above construction, you wouldn't have to delete the blocks and could use it as a signal. Otherwise, with just the puffer by itself, you can't use it as a signal as it would not be considere...

I posted about the feasibility of a further filtering tool for LLS but, after considering again, I have come to realise that it is so much more well-suited for Bellman.

UC-hunting for different rules
