  • Class B (Static)
    • Soups tend to have little activity and they stabilise quickly. (B/S01234567)
  • Class C (Stable)
    • Soups tend to stabilise quickly, but they have some activity (Vote)
  • Class D (Chaotic)
    • Soups take a while to stabilise and have lots of activity. (Life)
  • Class E (Explosive)
    • Soups form patches of infinite chaotic growth. (DryLife)
  • Class F (Expanding)
    • A few expanding blobs that conquer the whole universe. (B3/S234a)
