Starting with a single dot, this rule creates an intricate mosaic using only five distinct "pieces" every (2^n) - 1 generations, separated by a simple margin, leaving absolutely no holes. These are those pieces:
Code: Select all
x = 28, y = 7, rule = B13/S

At first glance, that reminded me of the Replicator rule.
Something a bit cooler:
Code: Select all
#CXRLE Pos=-6,-4
x = 9, y = 9, rule = B13/S

At least it's symmetrical...

I think the evolution of a single dot is indeed identical in this rule and Replicator; B5, B7, and S<odd> neighborhoods never come up here.
