For any base that is the product of two and another prime:
Base 6 (2*3)
1+2+3+4+5 = 23 2+3 = 5
Base 14 (2*7)
1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+A+B+C+D = 67 6+7 = D
Base 22 (2*11)
1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H+I+J+K+L = 9C 9+C = L
Notice the pattern?
For a number system of base n, where n = 2p, p being prime:
The sum of the integers from 1 to n-1 is n(n-1) / 2.
Substituting 2p for n, we get:
=2p(2p-1)/2
=p(2p-1)
The representation in the number system n will be the quotient and remainder of p(2p-1)/n.
Substituting 2p for n, we get:
=2p(2p-1)/2p
=2p-1
Since this is less than 2p, the quotient is 0 mod n, the remainder is the digit 2p-1 = n-1. QED
Seriously, dude, learn some mathematics.

Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
