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.

I LIKE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tha's what I'm talking about!!!!!!!!!!!
