Using about the algorithm Pyro describes... Still, I don’t think this is what the target sequences inventor intends – it doesn’t quite seem to satisfy the “any 5th grader could do it” criterion....

I agree. I've given up on that approach.

I actually tied that method and a smiliar one using prime numbers, none worked . So 66 is not the right anwer, I don't know about 98 though.

pattern of triangle numbers? ((n+1)n/2):
1      3        6    ***    28  *     45  **    78  ***   136
153    171    190    ***   276  *    325  **   406  ***   528
561    595    630    ***   780  *    861  **   990  ***  1176
1225  1275   1326    ***  1540  *   1653  **  1830  ***  2080
(###*** #*#**#***#  ?)

social media is based in binary:
tri#  128    64    32    16    8     4     2     1
1    0     0     0     0     0     0     0     1     64
