%F A227589 Conjecture: a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-2*a(n-3)+a(n-4) for n>5. G.f.: (x^5-x^4-x^2+2*x+1) / ((x-1)^3*(x+1)). - _Colin Barker_, Aug 01 2013
%e A227589 Three tetrahedra labeled (1, 2, 8, 12) yield the 20 possible sums 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 28, 32, 36. No more sums can be obtained by different labelings, and no labeling with labels < 12 yields 20 possible sums. Therefore a(3) = 12.
