Scot Ellison
Scot Ellison is a Life enthusiast who works to reduce the bounding boxes of glider guns and has discovered small period oscillators.
- December 2002, Karel's p15 can be made to thin a glider stream to one third its previous frequency.
- April 2003, two-beehive glider-to-Herschel guns. Many of these retain the record for the smallest bounding box for their respective periods. This includes the period 413 glider gun.
- May 2007, 17-column heavyweight volcano that reduces the bounding box for many glider guns.
- June 2008, Scot's p5 that is a small period 5 oscillator.
- April 2010, p4 HW emulator hybrid that reduces the bounding box for Period-36 glider gun.
- July 2011, swine that formerly had the highest volatility of any known period 5 oscillator.

gollark: Can your computer *use* RDIMMs?
gollark: <@246837916850978819> If you mean CPU cores, then basically just somewhat independent sub-processors on your CPU.
gollark: Try using an underscore instead?
gollark: Don't do implicit type conversion, kids!
gollark: I think it's implicitly converting to a number, but that number is invalid, so it's NaN, which is lowercased to nan.
