I only know about this "game" from watching this video recently:

(It's mentioned in this video that a few patterns keep growing forever)
And I thought it would be fun to program this and see how it really behaves. Being able to create interesting starting patterns is important, and so far I have just a crude few options. Maybe some day it'll be better, we'll see. If anyone here wants to expand on that, please do.
