Wait, you can let a block eat gliders while also keeping its beehive-style eating reactions? :o

So the conlang uses some characters from the Greek alphabet?

I give up. What's your cipher?

It's a conlang — I think it means "Do you speak feleglibleg'?". ("feleglibleg' " or "ɸɛlɛgliblɛɣ" is the name of the conlang, literally translating to "terrible speech".)
