Also a failed replicator in B3/S234y.
Here's another:

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = Life
bo$3o$bo!
[[ STOP 5 ]]

Well, that really can't be called a "failed replicator", because the crosses were actually touching each other.

That replicator isn't failed, nor is it quadratic.

Yes, that's known, and no, it does not belong in this thread.
Here's a failed class-Q replicator:

I found two of these back in November:

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B3-r/S1e23eir
bo$3o$bo!

Code: Select all

x = 5, y = 3, rule = B3-ckq/S02-i34q
b3o$o3bo$2ob2o!
The first rule also has a c/2o R ship.

Research pending for this rule, it's very promising.

Code: Select all

#CXRLE Pos=-6,-9
x = 3, y = 2, rule = B2ak3k4cnz5cen/S2-en3cn4cjkny5cen6a

This rule also has a natural spacefiller, which forms from simply a single tub (as opposed to the barge replicator):

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B34ce5cen67c8/S2-i3-jqry4cent5j67c8

However, when arising from soup it usually also fails due to colliding with debris:

Code: Select all

x = 16, y = 16, rule = B34ce5cen67c8/S2-i3-jqry4cent5j67c8
