Hello,
My name is Braden. I am a total noob. I am very interested in the idea of programming my own search tools in python. I am working on a script that can generate patterns to save the start pattern and results of their future generations into a library of data that can be browsed. My hope is to create training data to feed into some ML models that will assist in creating novel patterns.

Right now I am just working on the actual generation of the start pattern library, and over the coming weeks will work on running all of the patterns and storing their generational data into the library. I am aware there are other search tools available, but to me building the tool itself is what is fun.

Hi, I'm Para!
I'm just a normal guy who likes cellular automata, particularly exotic spaceships, exotic rules (non totalistic anyone), and evolutionary sequences.
I also apgsearch a bit (I'm Para6371 on Catagolue), although that's not my main focus.

ok, english isn't my first language, i try my best to have good grammar and stuff but don't be mad at me if it's wrong, and my shift key is REALLY tight, resulting in me almost never capitalizing my text.
i have to toggle caps lock to comfortably capitalize actually, and that's very tedious.
edit: to write characters that require shift it takes me very long to type them because of how tight it is, so every edit takes longer than you'd think just because of the colon

Not everyone can afford a newer laptop with a wider screen. I have a moderately old laptop and a very old desktop but I understand that many people who are interested in CGoL/CA/recreational mathematics/whatever have just one old device.

That's really it, nothing too special to add right now.

hi, im domokoa
ive been in the discord server for a while, but ive decided to see whats been happening here
im really into INT rules and other alien-like CA
I found out what CA was from that one cgol google easter egg, and ive been obsessed ever since.
not sure what else to put here, but ive never really been on forums in general, so all of this is completely new to me.
hope to find some cool stuff though

(Surprisingly I make my introduction after almost 0.5 years)
Hi, I'm b-engine, an active user on the forums. I often make discoveries in OCA (nbsearch2a soup search, engineering spaceships or corderize puffers) or sometimes even making OCAs (and recently multistate rules).
I doesn't contribute much in wiki, but I sometimes corrects some typos & suggesting some ideas. (EDIT: now also label speedy deletion for unwanted ruletable uploads)
I haven't made any notable discoveries in B3/S23 even after 1/2 years, but I'm planning on creating a self-supporting spaceship using B conduits.
I have a 2-years old laptop running Windows 11.

Hi! I have been actively reserching cellular automata for several months now, but this is the first time I have posted! I found out about CGOL, leading to my supsequent discovery of cellular automata, from a book called “math with bad drawings”. I have a question. How do you post patterns? I think I may have found an oscillator in the generations rule 345/2/4. (Star Wars) also: I am a child so please be patient with me.
