9. I love the fibonacci sequence.

17. It's one of the most 'organic' sliding scales you can find

so when my brother and I were trying to work out an RPG that didn't have the stupid simplicity of a lot of the ones out there (D20 system, I'm looking at you.), but without the ridiculous complexity and re-rolling of seventeen brazillion dice (Shadow Run, I'm looking at you), we decided to use the fibonacci sequence for just about everything. :)

10. 3948 or 4181

[KitchenWitch]

13. 4181

[TCJ70]

16. I'm sticking with 3948...heh

[kentauros]

20. And you're right on that answer, too ;)

First sequence (that everyone else got, because it's simple)

987+1597 = 2584
1597+2584 = 4181


Second possible sequence (the more complex or convoluted one)

1597-987 = 610
2584-1597 = 987

Subtract the differences
987-610 = 377

Add the second difference of the larger first differences
377+987 = 1364

Thus
1364+2584 = 3984

15. The next number is 2 because of nuclear war. It's the only one left.
