Talk:Bookend

Clarification

Shouldn't this be called a methuselah? --Turtleguy1134 17:11, 28 August 2012 (CDT)

'Bookend' refers to this pattern when it is used as an induction coil. 'Century' refers to the related methuselah.

Bookends in OCA

What's the point of having the "In other rules" section? There are just too many rules where bookends behave interestingly that it's impossible to decide which of those rules is notable enough to put in the page -- especially if the bookend simply evolves into a puffer or a spaceship. Besides, you could just put them in Century instead of here, since this page is for the induction coil, not the related methuselah. Are the two rules in that section now included because they're close to CGoL? I6 I6 (talk) 11:52, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
