Your program must print out this exact sequence:

1
2
4
10
24
54
116
242
496
1006
2028
4074
8168
16358
32740
65506
131040
262110
NOPE!

As usual, shortest program wins. Standard code golf rules apply.

    \$\begingroup\$ How did you come up with this sequence and why does it end where it does? \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ @Mr.Xcoder that's silly. As soon as anyone finds the rule it will be obvious in their code. \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ Why are you printing NOPE!? Once you have the sequence you can continue it. \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ IMO the NOPE! just makes each submission longer by about 10 bytes, and doesn’t serve any purpose when it comes to making the challenge more interesting. \$\endgroup\$
