How was that 40k made anyway? I want to see if I can top it off with a few more generations at most

It was made from a 15-cell methuselah found by Richard Wobus, presumably found by the Online Life-Like CA Soup Search:

Code: Select all

3o20$3bo$3bo$3bo5$20b3o$9b3o10bo$22bo$21bo!
This methuselah is pretty much the best example of a typical methuselah: it has only 15 cells and already lasts over 32000 generations. However, knightlife discovered that a blinker could be added to one side that wouldn't get touched for about 30000 generations, and when touched, would increase the lifespan by about 8000 generations.

Despite being the longest lived notable methuselah, 40514M has too large a bounding box to be considered as good a methuselah as the 15-cell one, or Lidka.

Someone should probably invent some sort of measurement, involving the amount of generations for stabilisation compared to the bounding box.

Oh, please don't! Check out the last three columns in the table in Kiran's link --
Kiran wrote:Not notable
People have been inventing methuselah metrics for forty-six years now, including Gustavo last year who added "escapeability" to an already very overcrowded field.

As a rough approximation, no two Life enthusiasts will be interested in exactly the same methuselah metric, and all metrics about equally arbitrary (or seem that way to somebody).

The best methuselah according to one metric will be different from the best according to another metric... there are so many different "best" methuselahs that none of them end up being really notable.

Basically, in the absence of a large prize for The Methuselah With The Highest Value Of Some Particular Metric, my experience has been that methuselah metrics are pretty much useless, except for causing arbitrary disagreements...!

@fsrm, did you follow Kiran's Not notable link?

The pattern you posted starts with 17 ON cells in a 128x170 bounding box.

With 11 ON cells in a 6x4 bounding box, you can get a methuselah that lasts about 5000 ticks longer than your 17-cell one.

That means that it's possible to write a script that could randomly generate millions (at least) of different methuselahs that start with less than 17 cells and last longer than 12,677 generations.

But it's not clear that any of those millions of methuselahs would be worth drawing any special attention to, really. What would you say is interesting about the one you posted?

Do not post in a thread that's inactive for years, especially if the thread itself is not quite notable or if you don't have anything notable enough to necro-post.

Well this thread is in the SandBox - just-in-case...

This guy looks like he's gonna die (or maybe I'm running it too slow)

but he lives for 18465 generations. Starts in a 7X7 Bounding Box.

Twelve cells - actually four Blonks.

Code: Select all

x = 7, y = 7, rule = B3/S23
6bo$5b2o2$bo$2o3bo$2b4o$2bo!
Now I looked at the table in the Wiki and this one lives longer than

the other two in the 18,000gens range. Does this mean that I finally found something?

Do I get to name it even?

Thank You !

<3

EDIT : How about the one I posted here?
This One should be Number Three in the Life Wiki Table c'est vrai?

Do I need to post this under Patterns?

And exactly how are finds adjudicated?

Smaller is better - seven cells, five-by-five, Queen Bee predecessor; lives 1875gens ;-)

@ hotdogPi - you have A. I. Grade Pattern Recognition going on here (have you been training your mind)

even if your morphology is off a tad - going to have to start calling you HawkEye !

Have you seen my Welsh RareBit
