Ok that is fine then…I was under the wrong impression that this site was for high-end crypto challenges, pushing the boundaries kind of thing (with a few easier ciphers to work on).

Now I know otherwise it makes more sense.

For those who believe they have all the numbers right, but still find their solution rejected:
Do not forget the parentheses around the comma separated list!

Hello,

I seem to have found the right solution. But my solution is not accepted. Can anybody help me, please?

Thank you!

Best regards

If it is not missing parentheses, as mentioned one post above yours, then send me your solution and I will check it.

The sequence is so "real life" and so "natural" that
OEIS is not aware of it…
Really…

  • It is not being in OEIS what makes a sequence natural or real life[/*:m]
  • The number of sequences is infinite, capacity of OEIS is not[/*:m]
  • Challenges are not about copying solutions from internet, surely you can do so but that is not a sign of being able to solve a challenge on your own[/*:m][/list:u]

Hi all!!!

I happen to know this user from another "crypto challenge" site http://www.newenigma.com/enigma. :-DDD

His public profile on that site is: https://www.newenigma.com/life/user/967/kenbrooker. Ken Brooker, alias glasshopper.

Here on mysterytwister he uses two accounts - Ken Quixote and glasshopper. He is a textbook example of internet troll.

Copy from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll:

"In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts flame wars or intentionally upsets people on the Internet by posting inflammatory and digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses and normalizing tangential discussion, either for the troll's amusement, or to achieve a specific result such as disrupting a rival's online activities or manipulating a political process."

Just few post of him on the forum of http://www.newenigma.com:

By the way I tried to report his posts couple days ago but you have no option like "trolling" so I refrained from reporting because it did not fit any categories you have like "spam" for example.
