%C A302928 Question: what is the maximum value possible for (a(n) - n)? The current record is 5, which occurs at n=31.
%C A302928 There is no maximum. We can take k copies of the 17-mine configuration and place them sufficiently far apart to get 18k fours. So a(17k) - 17k >= 18k - 17k = k can get arbitrarily large. A possibly more interesting question is to ask about the maximum ratio a(n)/n. - _Yevhenii Diomidov_, Jan 19 2022
