Bumping this thread cause I'd love to learn more about this and this thread seems to be ignored for some reason.

Also I'm a tad lonely.

Yes, I was aware it had that! I just made this thread so people could discuss ther findings and such.

God it really has been two years since I used this account...

So recently I've been playing this game called HyperRogue , a game that takes place on a tiling of the hyperbolic plane. For those who don't know what the hyperbolic plane is, I'd recommend watching this video , and/or playing ...

Okay, so, I don’t know if this is going to be completely useless or not, but I want to share an idea that I had that might help us understand things about certain types of patterns, and might even encourage us to branch out to find other unique structures in life.

This idea is a new measure to a ...

Firstly, has nobody found out yet that this rule is invertible?
#CXRLE Pos=-126,-105
x = 253, y = 211, rule = B2e3ain4-cjqtw5ceiry6-ac78/S2ac3ajknq4eiqwy5-ain6-e78:T253,211

A second useless oscillator that looks silly when you run it:
EDIT: It's actually really sparky, so it may have some use.
#CXRLE Pos=-13,-4
x = 22, y = 15, rule = B3/S23

Well, hey again guys. Sorry for not posting in like a week, I’m still pretty new to this, so new in fact that I still don't know how to upload soups to catalogue. So, even though I can’t make any major discoveries in patterns, I would at least like to spark some discussion about something that has ...

How do I put this rule into apgsearch? When I put it in, it just takes out aaaaaaaaaaall of the letters and just turns it into B2348/S0234567. (B2ci3ai4c8/S02ae3eijkq4iz5ar6i7e --> B2348/S0234567) How do I fix this???

This is probably known, but it's my first ever find so it's kinda special to me, so I thought I'd post it.
#CXRLE Pos=-16,-4

Okay, so I downloaded a CGOL search tool, WLS. I was trying to test the waters with what I could do, so I took a lightweight spaceship, removed the upper left dot, and hit 'Start', expecting just a LWSS to come out. I instead got a big p2 oscillator. (No problems with this, i'm sure there's a ...

Wow, thanks for the help and suggestions to help me get started! I just have one question. While I was browsing the tutorial pages on LifeWiki, I found this sentence...
It is one of the few areas in the Game of Life that many discoveries can still be made without using scripts.
So... does this ...

Hello. My name is Mandelbrot and I really want to be a helpful part of the CGOL community, but I've never really done something like this before, and I really wanna help find cool patterns, particularly oscillators. However, I don't really know how... and I really don't wanna feel like dead weight ...

I was messing around with rails, and found some possibly interesting stuff, I even found a wick, but i'm probably not the first one to find it :p
