COMMENTS
The second differences of this sequence start with 2 zeros and then seem to alternate between 2 and -1 perpetually
The bases which yield the first five numbers on this list are {{2},{3},{2,4},{3,5},{3}}, where multiple items on the sublists indicate multiple bases yielding the same maximum. 3 and 4 seem to be the only 2 numbers with multiple bases that yield the same maximum. The numbers of the bases which yield numbers on this list for values n greater than 5 seem to be Floor((n+2)/2).
