This monstrosity was vastly improved as a shuttle oscillator using 4 blocks,4 eaters and just 4 T-tetronimos -and 2 still-lifes I call "curling stones" (based on the objects used in the popular Canadian hockey-like game). For this reason I call the pattern "Curling game".

This monster was reported in the last issue of LIFELINE back in the early 70's. I found no improvement on it then, nor could I devise one.
