p126 R hassler supported by the other p126 R hassler; a subperiod support instead of the p126 should work but I can't find any compatible ones:

EDIT: Fencepost for a p53 wick from jslife. The glider gun just triggers an eater 1 reaction and could probably be replaced with an oscillator, but I didn't find any ways.

Isn’t it pi/century shuttle?

[confocaloid]

When someone posts a pi shuttle that also turns out to be a century shuttle (with century appearing in a different phase), there is no requirement for them to describe it as such; it is possible that they simply didn't notice.

That said, it looks like removing the shuttled active object causes the rest to fail, which means that shuttleness/hasslerness of that p62 oscillator is dubious, at least with that way to separate it into the "hassled" part and the "hassling" part.

Here's a seriously-small (42 cells!) period-21 R hassler that I'm slightly surprised hasn't been found before:

Code: Select all

x = 25, y = 13, rule = B3/S23

This variant from Chris857 with one half shifted in time has population 40:

It still doesn't beat out 32P21 though.

My initial thought for the name of the p21 oscillator was "blackjack", as not only is a p21, it's 11+10, where a blackjack in the game is formed of an 11-point card and a 10-point card.

Then the 13+8 form showed up, somewhat undermining that name. I'd still support it, though.
