There you are Suyono!
And here I was thinking that maybe you had declined
to direct your considerable intellect towards my little conundrum
:-)
Like Alexis wrote, "You can find there 5358 sequences
starting with 0,1,2... (!) Just pick one :-)"
So, there will be so many "possible" answers but
"unacceptable". (Actually, not as many as 5358,
because the search engine includes "0, 1, -2, ...";
"0, -1, 2, ..."; and "0, -1, -2, ..." as well as
"0, 1, 2, ...".)

As I said in a reply to Steve/Horst, there are an infinite number of series that can be shown mathematically to derive from "0, 1, 2,..." or indeed any starting sequence. The desire is for the most elegant (some of which I have excluded by clarifying my position, I know - I still really like "...10, 11, 12, 20,...").
Mark, it's my wild guess. I'm not sure if the
following sequence has any use or ever found by
others:
n^(n!-floor(n/2)); n = 0, 1, 2, ...
You'll get the series: 0, 1, 2, 243, 1.75922E+13,
3.00927E+82, ...

Not bad, in a way you are on the right track, and
your 4th term is quite a bit larger than others that have so far been proposed,
but the one I have in mind is still much larger.
To avoid too many possible answers, we may ask for
the largest fourth term. The winner is the one who
gets the largest fourth term.

Well, that might be your competition but you will
only get the cookie if yours matches mine! For now, mine's bigger so me get
cookie :-) <yum>
