Find the smallest endemic still life
It seems that PK22, the current only person in the project who is able to search non-anonymously, has rejoined (he first joined one year ago when iddi01 first brought bs01/1x256 to the leaderboard)
I'll post another here, though i swear i had seen something similar before, maybe just by imagination ...

Re: Miscellaneous Discoveries in Other Cellular Automata
Another discovery using patched CatForce :

CatForce OCA development?
Has anyone else actually used the INT adaptation of CatForce to do something? (can a mod please move that thread to "Scripts" since it is incorrectly in the sandbox forum)
To me, it is the single best tool for OCA development, and is recently used to find something notable . It really needs a lot ...

Re: TLS - B2ce3ai4ez/S12cei3inry & the t-split rulespace
There is no way to form a formal definition for this rulespace, since it includes not a single reaction but any rule with reasonably similar reactions, and there is no formal definition for what counts as "similar" to the reaction, so.
Here's the full tabulation of T/L & single domino reactions ...

Re: TLS - B2ce3ai4ez/S12cei3inry & the t-split rulespace
How big is this rulespace?
Any rule where the T works the same and the following collision works similarly.
x = 10, y = 5, rule = B2ce3ai4ez/S12cei3inry

Re: TLS - B2ce3ai4ez/S12cei3inry & the t-split rulespace
Sorry about the relatively crude post yesterday, it was due to time constraints.
The variants are now revealed - see updated first post for details. They would certainly not disappoint, i promise.
p15 and p17 elementary guns uncovered!
x = 51, y = 23, rule = B2ce3ai4ez/S12cei3inry

TLS - B2ce3ai4ez/S12cei3inry & the t-split rulespace
TLS, stands for T and L, the two main spaceship types, and s plit, is a rule within the "t-split" rulespace.
It features abnormally abundant splitting and eating reactions, all with only a domino!
x = 84, y = 66, rule = B2ce3ai4ez/S12cei3inry

90-degree reflector!!!
Sorry for necropost, but this is something notable that had not been accomplished within nearly 7 years since the discovery of The Most Apg-ed Isotropic Non-totalistc Rule, which is this rule:
A 90-degree reflector!!!
x = 28, y = 42, rule = B2c3aei4ajnr5acn/S2-ci3-ck4in5jkq6c7c
