no the sandbox will stay prevalent forever and outlast conwaylife.com and they will move to their own website just like oca and factorio.
here's the gosper glider gun

OCA and Factorio (included in OCA) will stay here. Only a part of the Sandbox with CA-themed games will move to a different site.

Where can I vote for that outcome?

Unlikely events happen.
My silence does not imply agreement, nor indifference. If I disagreed with something in the past, then please do not construe my silence as something that could change that.

By 2029, HWSS and/or e9jp will be recognized conduit objects.
By 2030, an Eureka will occur in C1.
By 2034, a copperhead in C1 will be found.
By 2050, an elementary knightship smaller than Sir Robin will be found.
Can't trust someone who misspells typset as typeset.

New set of predictions:
  • The p14 glider gun sparker will be reduced by at least 10 columns, likely more.
  • Water strider will eventually go below 40000 cells and be reduced in BB by at least a third
  • The discovery order of the last remaining true-period glider guns will be: (38 or 18), 39, 29, 31, 26, 23, 17, 19
  • SKOP81 will be reduced either this year or next year.
  • The order for the final glider reflectors will be: 23 independent, 17, 19
Currently working to improve Life's guns and work on updating SKOPs and Isotropic rules most similar to B3/S23 to Life standards. Will get software to begin searches eventually.

So far, so good.

My Spaceship predictions

Next elementary speed in:

Life (B3/S23) - 3c/8 orthogonal (2-cell off partial which is very promising IMO)
Pedestrian Life (B38/S23) - 2c/7 orthogonal
Eightlife (B3/S238) - (2,1)c/6
Honeylife (B38/S238) - either (2,1)c/6 or 2c/7 orthogonal
Seeds (B2/S) - c/5 orthogonal
Live Free or Die (B2/S0) - c/3 diagonal
Currently working to improve Life's guns and work on updating SKOPs and Isotropic rules most similar to B3/S23 to Life standards. Will get software to begin searches eventually.

In 2059, a knightship in Live Free or Die may be discovered.

All still lives up to 25 cells will be synthesized, and the crab will appear naturally, before 25P3H1V0.1 and 25P3H1V0.2 appear naturally.
mmmmmmmmm, I love eating spaceships.
