Find a rule that has only one possible oscillator period.
Extra credit for:
[ ] not period 2 (+8)
[ ] non-explosive (+2)
[ ] apgsearchable (+2)
[ ] no still lives (+1)
[ ] no linear growth other than that period (+1)
[ ] no spaceship periods other than that period (+2)
For no-yl and no-xq there doesn't need to actually have yls and xqs.

Easy:
Score:
5 (or 8, depending on how you define no yl’s other than that period and no xq’s other than that period. Do you need a yl or a xq respectively for those points to be allowed?)

Not so easy:
p4, mod 2
Code: Select all
x = 6, y = 2, rule = B3i/S2i
6o$6o!

That looks pretty good. Doesn't it also win the "only one object game?"

I stand corrected, BUT:
Code: Select all
x = 13, y = 2, rule = B3i/S2i5i

I will post it there too.

heres a better entry:
(scores higher)

First of all, two things: The period must be an oscillator period, the extra credit is for only if there exists xq/yl.
Secondly agars and anything growing superlinearly or anything that requires a bounded grid doesn't count.
