Good Lord you were lucky; I got 5, 25, 343, and 1017. Not sure what I was on, but I did binary lookups for the 1017s and the brute-forced the successes to check 5, 25, and 343. We can call it the Crack Algorithm&tm;, respecting what I must've been on to ignore all the possible optimizations.

Still, you get 41 and 541, and I get 343 and 1017. Sometimes life's just no fair.
