I'm usually pretty good at these things, but I'm stumped. Ascending numbers to the eighth power that results in .22272, etc.?

I'm curious what the answer is.

I had to google the answer, but I found it. It's pretty cheap. If you want me to tell you, I will, but it has nothing to do with math.

Well, the contest ended this morning unfortunately. If it had nothing to do with math then I feel very cheated.

Thanks anyway. =)

It was the names of Neopets when punched into a phone keypad.

Wow, that is cheap. I'm usually pretty happy when I don't "get" something of that nature. It makes me feel like less of a loser. ;-)

The one that they have up now is a real math problem. It's geometric. I have a hope in hell for this one.
