2. appletart game 15 up, 2 down
|name            = Very long snake
A game invented in October 2009 at First Flight High School where participants use the word appletart or some of its variants. Originally it was focused on who could say it the loudest but has evolved over time. The ways to play include: 1. Who can say appletart the loudest? 2. Who can say appletart the most in a game? 3. Who will say appletart last? 4. Who will day appletart in the funniest or most awkward situations? 5. What word will be matched when someone says appletart? Will it be appletart, applepie, poptart, or something else?1. kid 1: Appletart. kid 2: Appletart! kid 1: APPLETART!

Very long snake is an 8-cell still life and is the long long extension of the snake which can be used as a one-time reflector. It was found in 1971.[1]

This still life can be interpreted as two mutually stabilising hooks. An alternate arrangement, which could be seen as the cis version of the very long snake, results in the canoe.

Occurrence

See also: List of common still lifes, Most common objects on Catagolue

Very long snake is the sixtieth most common still life in Achim Flammenkamp's census, being less common than cis-block on long bookend but more common than tub with nine.[2]

It is the 61st most common still life on Adam P. Goucher's Catagolue, being less common than cis-block on long bookend but more common than boat with long tail. It is the 2nd rarest still life with 8 cells, being less common than canoe but more common than hook with tail.[3]

Glider synthesis

Main article: Glider synthesis

All strict still lifes with a population of 23 or fewer cells, all oscillators with 16 or fewer cells, and all spaceships with 35 or fewer cells are known to be glider-constructible. A glider synthesis of this object can be found in the infobox to the right.
