The minimal population of this moving sawtooth is 707 cells(Gen 420).
Is this a new record?

If the wiki is up to date...yes.

If not...someone should fix that :D

Three things:
1. I think it is new record in population count and
2.
it is notable because it and its slight modifications are the only known sawtooths that move.
I don't think it is "slight modification" of sawtooth on wiki
3.It is also faster than first moving sawtooth
Maybe your sawtooth will have its own article at Lifewiki at one day...
First question ever. Often referred to as The Question. When this question is asked in right place in right time, no one can lie. No one can abstain. But when The Question is asked, silence will fall. Silence must fall. The Question is: Doctor Who?

Cool. I like it. And yeah I would say this deserves a place on the wiki.

Do you have a name in mind for it? If not, I suppose it would just be called "sawtooth 707".
