[QUOTE=LaurV;280513]If noone is working out 279936 then I would like to reserve it. I did not find it in the "reserved" list, but maybe it merges with some smaller, hence this is 6^7 as for a start.

279936 merges with 95280:
279936:i9 = 95280:i20 = 614260

For more information about merges see W.Crayaufmüller's page and the [url=http://www.aliquot.de/aliquote.htm#databases]C9C30[/url] spreadsheet.

Aye sir, if it's free. It is just a c111, methink we can add few digits to it.

edit: methink we like better 95280, it is longer 11 terms... :P better chances to beat some records :P

Whaaa! that is a beauty! Congratulations!

(and the spiteful LaurV inside, echoes) He got lucky too, it was a "good" sequence, it stayed low for the most of the graphic, needed only small "pushes"... except the last part.

I doubt many of the rest of us would have persisted with that combination. (I would probably have stopped when it hit the first GNFS eligible composite.)

[QUOTE=LaurV;279994]I took [URL="http://factordb.com/aliquot.php?type=1&aq=585000"]585000 [/URL]to over 145 digits, can't get rid of the driver. Who said "fear the 2^3*3*5" was right. Moreover, here and there, it also got a very sticky 7, and few times forced me to split some C140 and one C142 (at the term 1612) which is in fact the highest factorization I did all by myself up to now.

So, I am divorcing it, at term 1620, and 149 digits. The C141 on the plate had ECM done with yafu "plan=normal". If I am in some good mood next days I may attempt some "plan=deep" for yafu ecm, but definitely I will not go to NFS it.

Have at it :D[/QUOTE]

Finished yafu's ecm plan=deep for the C141 (4145593859...9) of ali_585000:1620. Now we are officially divorced, and I am officially giving up on it, and totally unreserving it with a bit of remorse, at 149 digits. Ready for nfs, who wants it. I am still f'king sooo curious how one can get rid of that 2^3*(2^4-1) driver....

I'll take 896604 for a spin.

I'm dropping 433476.

Taking 753606, 155034, 987582.

Releasing 37146, 960096, 69000, 401394, 785970, 426420, 575904.
