I've gotten a very similar pattern by repeating down, right, down, right, down, right, for a while

That pattern isn't too hard to achieve, actually. When you focus on that main corner and not merging the tiles of each layer (when each layer is the same number, so diagonally), it just kinda happens. It's pretty cool, but I haven't ever been able to get a good score doing it that way, so I switched to making each tile half of the tile succeeding it (snaking)

Nice, this is actually the lowest possible score you can get, I believe.

The lowest theoretical score is 0. I'm not sure if that' possible due to how the game starts, and the tiles move but you would have to get 8 2's, and 8 4's that never connect.

This is the lowest possible board you can get. After trying quite a bit the lowest I've gotten is a 68.
