This is an interesting rule I found through Golly. Here are a few crossposts from Discord and Catagolue:

Log split (Logarithmic[?] growth)

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 13, rule = B2cei3i4aiq6-i/S1e2ce3aceik4ackntw5-ckn6-i7c
3bo$2bo2$6bo$5bo$2bo$bobo5$o3bo$o3bo!

I think that "log splitter" is logarithmic in the same sense in which the logarithmic replicator rule (B36/S245) is "logarithmic". (Side note regarding B36/S245, I like the old name, even though it's inaccurate it feels like a better name. It entirely consists of words, and it's not like names given to "specific things" always need to be accurate.)

Regarding the pattern you posted, I believe it isn't a population growth at all. The bounding box grows, but the population remains bounded (less than 25 alive cells?)
Rotated clockwise:

Code: Select all

x = 13, y = 7, rule = B2cei3i4aiq6-i/S1e2ce3aceik4ackntw5-ckn6-i7c
2o$6bo$7bo3bo$6bo5bo$2o$8bo$9bo!

The bounding box grows as square root of time already passed (the time before reaching some width is of the order of the width squared). The distance between the stationary reflector (two dominoes) and the two duoplets increases in fixed steps. Every time the spaceship hits the two duoplets on the right, the two duoplets are shifted to the right by a fixed distance and mirrored through the axis of symmetry of the spaceship. Then a new spaceship is sent back along the same path. (This can be compared with the relationship between the number of terms N and the sum 1+2+3+....+N as N grows.)

Here is a variant without any permanently-alive cells:

Code: Select all

x = 41, y = 6, rule = B2cei3i4aiq6-i/S1e2ce3aceik4ackntw5-ckn6-i7c
30bo$bo26bobo9bo$o29bo8bo2$4bo32bo$3bo32bo!

[CARuler]

um... the distance extends by O(sqrt(x)) not O(log(x)) (y'=1/y)

This is an interesting rule I found through Golly.

My preferred name: Starsky.

Again (for the third time in the last 12 hours), is a name really necessary for this rule beyond B2cei3i4aiq6-i/S1e2ce3aceik4ackntw5-ckn6-i7c? Is a thread even necessary?

What happens in practice is that most such threads are abandoned, cluttering the forums, with only a few replies. There are way too many CA of the same type to investigate each of them in depth.

There are already forum threads created specifically to collect posts about any CA, avoiding the need to start lots of threads for non-notable topics:
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=803 Thread For Your Unrecognised CA
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1971 Miscellaneous Discoveries in Other Cellular Automata
For specific CA, posting in one of those existing threads is almost always a better choice, compared to starting a new thread.

For the same reasons, a name is almost never needed. The definition ("B37e8/S234c7e8" in this case) suffices and is unambiguous.
