a(14) > 3*10^6 (if it exists). Is there any even term?
EXAMPLE
Let T(i,j) be the triangle read by rows: T(i,j) = (i - floor((i - j)/j)) mod j for 1 <= j <= i. The triangle begins:
i\j | 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
-----+------------------------
1 | 0
2 | 0 0
3 | 0 1 0
4 | 0 1 1 0
5 | 0 0 2 1 0
6 | 0 0 2 2 1 0
7 | 0 1 0 3 2 1 0
8 | 0 1 1 3 3 2 1 0
9 | 0 0 1 0 4 3 2 1 0
10 | 0 0 2 1 4 4 3 2 1 0
11 | 0 1 0 2 0 5 4 3 2 1 0

The j-th column has period j^2, r-th element of this period has the form (r - 1 - floor((r - 1)/j)) mod j (1 <= r <= j^2). The period of j-th column consists of the sequence (0,1,2,...,j-1) and its consecutive j-1 right rotations (moving rightmost element to the left end).
39 is in this sequence because the only k's <= 39 satisfying the equation (39 - floor((39 - k)/k)) mod k = 0 are: 1, 3, 7, 9, 19, 39, hence: 1+3+7+9+19+39 = 78 = 2*39.
