We don't even know what your Discord account name is or if you're even banned.

edit: this is now a soft redirect to viewtopic.php?f=12&t=5730&p=223444#p223444. The original post is in the wrong place and is unpopular partly due to offensive wording that i did not intend.

Don't know where to post this, since i don't want to bump the thread, but it seems Discord has at least some role in boosting its ridiculous popularity. (Is having discussion in Discord now required for any OCA to gain significant attention??)

Can someone trying using OCA CatForce with this rule? There's a good chance that it'll give interesting results that the current catalyst-placing program misses.

New B catalysis with a ship:

Code: Select all

x = 9, y = 7, rule = B3/S23-a5
6b2o$6bobo$8bo$6b3o$2o$obo$b2o!

I'm glad that my post regarding the patched CatForce has had some influence, but i hoped that the influence would be on any rule but this.

I'm really tired of the fact that some of the most "successful" OCA of all time has been rather uninteresting Life variants: tlife, LeapLife, and now this?

tlife is overrated, but at least it is one of the better rules within 2 transitions from Life, and was discovered before major CA software supported Hensel notation, at which time any rule not outer-totalistic would have been one of the best...

I've long been wanting to complain about LeapLife. Except for the fact is has a small knightship, it's not really different from some random Life variant. Yet it is now one the most famous OCA in history, on par with or even surpassing Snowflakes, and is now
The Third Most Apg-ed Isotropic Non-totalistic Rule. You might find it interesting, but here's the truth:
Any rule, boring or not, that is not fundamentally limited, will be interesting after heavy development.

There is nothing that would make B3/S23-a5 any different from a rerun of LeapLife's history, maybe even worse.
Even after such heavy development, you'll find it to be still unable to compete with certain less developed rules such as this and this.
However, if you scroll through the many pages of the OCA forum you'll eventually realize that the seemingly amazing rules in the two links above is nothing more than "ordinary" stuff in the world of OCA, let alone relatively uninteresting Life variants like this.

So even if you're going to use the patched CatForce on a Life variant, please at least choose something actually suitable for conduits, for example:

Another discovery using patched CatForce:

A p68 gun in a Life variant made of two B to B+glider conduits!

Code: Select all

x = 29, y = 30, rule = B3-ekry5r/S23-y4ci8
$9bo$9b3o$6bo5bo$5bobo3b2o$5bobo$6bo7$15bo$14b2o$13b2o$14b2o3$19bo$18b
obo$13b2o3bobo$13bo5bo$14b3o$16bo!

Sorry, ThePlayzr, PK22, Resu & anyone else i might be missing.

Unrelated: i agree with most anti-Discord posts in this thread.

B3/S23-a5 has barely been discussed on discord. A couple of synthesises and conduits have been investigated there, but the vast majority of the work has been done on the forums.

I'm T6970 on Discord.
I think I might be able to tell the moderator there that you're legitimate but banned.

i do know why i am banned and i will explain when i get unbanned and join the Lounge

[hotdogPi]

You are currently on the server (typing @T6970 shows a user in the dropdown menu), which means you aren't banned.

@T6970 is me, not get_snacked.
Try @synperiplanar instead.

[hotdogPi]

I'm not seeing it. That said, I don't ever remember anyone with that name joining the server.

Then we'll need your real Discord name in order to even find out whoever is you and unban.

[hotdogPi]

Since I posted that message, someone provided a screenshot of that username in the server. It's just that I didn't personally remember.

Discord is aware of this forum thread now.

Death to Discord - unless they re-form themselves.
