I actually figured it out myself; just remove the left six columns and the bottom six rows from the soup:

x = 16, y = 16, rule = LifeHistory
.D.3D4A2.A.2A$D2.3D2.2A.A2.2A$4D2.2A4.A$2.3D2.2A4.2A$D7.A2.5A$3.2D.A

Thanks for 1) telling everyone and 2) reading the methuselae thread.

Specifically, in lifelib/soup/hashsoup.h, I added these lines (the if clause):

Code: Select all

            return bw;
        }

        if (symmetry == "10x10")
        {
            for(int i=0; i<10; i++) digest[2*i+1] &= 192;
            for(int i=20; i<32; i++) digest[i] = 0;
        }

        uint64_t a = 0;
        uint64_t b = 0;

EDIT: I honestly think it's a good idea to catagolue F/I above 100 (or 70, if that's too restrictive) for C1, not counting soups that spawn linear growth.

That is a great idea -- would people prefer F/I or F to be reported? They're roughly equivalent, because the initial population has a mean of 128 and standard deviation of 8 (and, by the Central Limit Theorem, is approximately Gaussian).

Merge requests on GitLab implementing that functionality would be most welcomely accepted. (What should the bin size be?)

Posted: **March 24th, 2019, 9:23 am**

In 10x10 the bin size is 1/1000th, but that's 1000x too much, so I say we round F/I.
For F, I say same as messless (100 bins.)
EDIT: On second thought, I think it's better to catagolue F. A good lower bound for F to submission is 3000 Although it's very, very common in 10x10, it's much rarer in C1 for unknown reasons.

Here's a haul with the "explode_" object: gol.hatsya.co.uk/haul/b3s23/C1/1d1102eb ... 16f16f5cbb

They're red because they contain the 'explode_' objects.

Pardon me, but what are "megasized" soups?

Posted: **March 25th, 2019, 4:43 am**

it's what we were just discussing

(LSS: soups with final population of greater than 3K)

Moreover, the 14-bit octapole has yet to appear in a C1 soup.

The name of house on house siamese table-on-table weld hat-siamese-hat caught my eye. One of the C1 soups gave me a 9G synthesis of that, as well as 11G for the doubled version:
