erdos decrepency conjecture

[phil1882]

heres an alternate version that i came up with,

place the digits 1-n where n is 4 such that no consecutive digit of any step value, starting at step value, repeats.

here's an example where n is 2.

0 1 0 2 1 0 2 1 2   0   1   ?   

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

here starting from 1 and going a step of 1, there are no repeats. starting from 2 and going a step of 2, no repeats, and so on. However there is no way to get 12 without repeating.

your task is to find the max value for 4.

since it been a couple weeks without even a guess, I'll go ahead and post my answer and see if anyone can do better. i get 59.

0 1 0 2 0 3 0 1 0   3   0   2   0   1   0   3   0   1   0   2   0   1   0   4  0   1   0   2   0   3   0    1   0   3   0   2   0   1  0   4   0   1   0   2   0   1   0    3   0   1  

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 

0    2   0   1   0   4   0   1   0   ?

51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60

I think the example in the OP has a mistake in it?

Anyways, here's a length 120 sequence.
