Lenny Conundrum #128

[stampsyne]

Answer #127: Prime numbers. Spelled out from letters in prime number sequence.

What is the next letter/number combination in this sequence?

S6
A10
R17
E21
H26
R30

erm...yeah...no idea whatsoever. i bet it's something ridiculously easy, and hopefully people on the neoboards wont go blabbing it out.

[gemma58]

I think I have it.

work with the letters first (find their meaning on neo)

[RolandOfTheEld]

well. I 've figured out what the number is but no clue as to the letter. the number is somewhere between 0 and 100,000,000. is that too obvious?
anywho. is it possible to get some sort of hint for the letter? and don't say it's between A and Z b/c my smart-alec mind already thought of that.

[ginevra]

There's already a hint above for the letter.

Of course, I'm still stuck on the number.

*returns to thinking*

EDIT: Think I have it, though not 100% positive the way you are with some. Definitely letter first.

I got it, although it wasn't what I thought it was going to be at first.

Man I hope I got in in time for the gold, I'm usually at work when it comes out, and the neoboards blab it. Only about every fifth one that comes out I actually get a chance to FINALLY get that gold lenny head on my mantle.

I don't see how gemma's response could possibly be construed as a hint. look for the letters meaning on neo...?

[Cranberry]

I'm usually really good at these Neo-related ones, but I've been looking all over and I can't figure out what the letters correspond to... grr.

*keeps looking*

Edit: Heh, I was trying too hard. The letter part is actually really obvious. Now to figure out the numbers...

I can't believe I got it. :O

And well, the neoboards already has the most obvious hint up so the prize for this one won't be very high. *sigh*

I spent too much time double checking my answer. ;P

By the way, the letters are in that order because of a certain page on Neopets.

Yeah, I'm getting the letter pretty easily. The number is not popping out, though.

[gemma58]

Just don't jump to the too obvious for that final letter, because that final letter is also related to the numbers

[vivian58]

And well, if it helps, when you do get the answer, you will smile a little, because you will see the cleverness of this LC. Or at least, I did. :p

[kulana]

Well I figured out the letter (thanks for the hints) but I am not 100% positive on the number. Can I confirm with anyone?
