The 2x2 block is a pattern which lasts one generation. It is how most patterns end.

Formation

There are two common ways of formation, the duoplet pattern and the domino pattern,both having 3 bits

Duoplet pattern:

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B36/S125 2bo$o$bo! #C [[ THUMBSIZE 2 THEME 6 GRID GRIDMAJOR 0 SUPPRESS THUMBLAUNCH ]]

(There is a notable longer pattern which cascades into the above pattern which will be shown further down the page.)

Domino pattern:

x = 2, y = 3, rule = B36/S125 o2$2o! #C [[ THUMBSIZE 2 THEME 6 GRID GRIDMAJOR 0 SUPPRESS THUMBLAUNCH ]]
