Year of discovery 1992

This sawtooth works by having a period 960 gun send glider southwest. Some are deleted and the rest reflect off the back of a 7-engine Cordership. Each returning glider deletes 2 outgoing ones.

  • The number of alive cells plotted versus the number of elapsed generations roughly forms an ever-increasing sawtooth graph.
gollark: We all know Turkey's basically turned evil (as a country) now.
gollark: How odd.
gollark: What?
gollark: Actually, better idea: *99%* of people (randomly picked) aren't allowed to vote, but can still go to the voting booth as usual and vote and whatnot, it's just not counted, and the people who are and aren't allowed don't know this.
gollark: So, effectively ban certain opinions?
