Voting has ended! Now it's time to count the votes...
Edit: could someone else do a count using the script? I can't seem to dig it up and make it work.

I've done the counting semi-manually (copy-pasted all the votes into a text file and then counted with small script).
I've not checked thoroughly if the votes are valid (e.g. nobody voted twice e.t.c.)

#07 Self-synthesizing oblique loopship: 85
#28 Reflectorless rotating oscillator: 75
#18 3/4 traffic light / "traffic stop" catalyst: 68
#04 DOGun SaGaQR: 68
#17 New spaceships synthesis: 65
#29 New gun engines: 65
#26 New (2,1)c/6 technology: 64
#08 New scalable programmable computer: 62
#32 New high-period oscillators: 57
#23 Periodic glider duplicator: 56
#12 Quicksilver Demonoid: 52
#05 new 3c/7 technology: 52
#19 New SKOPs: 51
#02 Twenty-bit still life syntheses: 46
#31 Ash-clearing mechanism: 46
#20 Strictly volatile p4 oscillator: 44
#13 New c/6 orthogonal technology: 42
#14 Herschel merge circuit: 42
#09 12-in-7 and 15-in-11 projects: 38
#25 New c/6 diagonal spaceships: 37
#03 Fast components: 34
#15 New record methuselahs: 34
#01 Chicken wire grayships: 34
#11 New p7 domino sparkers: 32
#30 New c/10 technology: 32
#24 Much smaller glider to weekender/doo-dah converter: 31
#10 p18 glider reflectors: 28
#06 2c/5 ant waveguid: 24
#21 p33 statorless 90-degree glider reflector: 22

I did a manual count and got the same results. Congrats to Goldtiger and the Self-Synthesizing Oblique Loopship!

I also calculated some correlation coefficients between people's votes and the totals (as I did last year):

Bellwether: Goldtiger997
Iconoclast: C28 (second year running!)

Most similar tastes: PC101 and LLAMASKYWALKER
Most divergent tastes: PC101 and C28

Most correlation between patterns: '12-in-7 and 15-in-11 projects' and 'Twenty-bit still life syntheses'
Most anticorrelation between patterns: '3/4 traffic light / "traffic stop" catalyst' and 'Quicksilver Demonoid'

now we just need to update the wiki

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 5, rule = B3/S12o3H
bo$2obo$3bo$b2obo$3bo!

Code: Select all

x = 15, y = 11, rule = 23/34/10
2$6.F.B$5.GICDA$4.H3I2D2A$4.I3.GF2A$7.FAD2A$8.2A!

Code: Select all

x = 8, y = 14, rule = B3-q4z5y/S234k5j

Interesting, how did you determine what is similar and not similar?
Puffer Suppressor
Would we be able to know when we know everything there is to know?
How would we know what we don’t know that we don’t know?
