Given the fact that the sequence has 2^4, but doesn't have a 3 or 31, hopefully the sequence will keep decreasing or flatten out until it catches the downdriver again. If it terminates, maybe RyanP can help us out with another sequence, like 660. However, that sequence is already reserved by Paul Zimmerman, and I don't think he'll be unreserving it anytime soon. The smallest unreserved sequence (as of this post) is 305460, so maybe that could be Ryan's next sequence.

it caught a 5 at one point and climbed I think that's what axn's post was about.

Dodged a bullet, perhaps? We had a 2^4 · 7 briefly but it went away.

Oh yez!

5 and 7 can not stick with 2^4. Only 31 is dangerous here (it was, actually, now we are back to DD).

Below 160 digits. Go, ryan, go.

Over 11000 terms! Current index value is a palindrome (11011). Hopefully this downdriver will stick. This could beat the record that 933436 is holding.

Almost there! :smile:
