The Continuous Pattern modification game

Post by breaker's glider gun » September 25th, 2022, 11:15 am

based off of this thread:
MathAndCode wrote: This game is based off of the near-anagram game. Each person should respond to the previous pattern with the name another pattern and a demonstration that the latter pattern or a predecessor can be derived form the former pattern or a predecessor by one of the following modifications:
  • adding a single cell
  • removing a single cell
  • swapping a live cell and a dead cell that are orthogonally adjacent
Vacuum and short-lived sparks (e.g. banana spark) are not allowed, but longer-lived sparks (e.g. phi spark) are. All patterns most be notable enough to have a name. Also, please do not repeat patterns that were used recently.
Here is an example:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 4, rule = DoubleB3S23
2C$2C2$BA3C!
traffic light

Code: Select all

x = 18, y = 3, rule = B3/S23
3o11b3o$o2bo10bo$2b2o12b2o!
fishhook

Code: Select all

x = 9, y = 9, rule = B3/S23
4bo$4bo$4bo$6bo$3o3b3o2$4bo$4bo$4bo!
We shall start with a block.
I make the extra rules that:
1. You must use the previous post's thingy as the base.
2. You must post it in TripleB3S23.
example:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 3, rule = TripleB3S23
4.C$B3G$2.G!
here we have 1: TL 2: loaf 3: loaf the other way.
if it were continued, someone would use this pattern(or any equivalent; the previous move must be shown in 2-colors.):

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 3, rule = TripleB3S23
4.G$E3G$2.G!
a continuation:

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 4, rule = TripleB3S23
4.G$E3G$2.G$2.D!
and the game will start with those moves.

Give me a suggestion of something to draw here!
