    It's the 2 times table written out in words and converted to the numbers on a mobile phone (the numbers you would press to write the number in a txt).

    So the 20th number would be forty or 36789

    What was the mode of thinking that you used to figure this out? I understand the typing of numbers... finding the coordinating letters... words... but what led you to think that might be the way to find the answer?

    What the..

    Oh, and you put your end color tag in the wrong place... it needs to go after your text but before your close quote tag... hence why it isn't red in your post! :D

    It's far too early and there is no where near enough caffine coursing through my veins for me to decipher a sequence tougher than that of the OP! Lol!

    There was an article in The Guardian some years back that said that mobile phones and text messaging would be the end of the English language... I mocked that article... now I just don't know! Ha ha!
