Here's more fun, with a silly if plausibly motivated name.

%N A000001 Pascrabble Triangle, by rows.
%C A000001 The apex of the triangle is 1.  Any other value is the
Scrabble value of English name for the number which is the sum of the
numbers above. This is generated the same way as A007318 Pascal's
triangle read by rows, except apply A113172 to each sum. The first
column of this triangle is 1, 3, 8, 9, 4, 7, 8, 9, 4, 7, 8, 9, 4, 7...
= iterations 1, A113172(1), A113172(A113172(1)),
A113172(A113172(A113172(1))).
The central pascrabble numbers T(2n+1,n) = 1, 10, 19, 21, 18, 11, 22, ...
%F A000001 T(1,1) = 1; for i > 1, T(i,j) = A113172(T(i-1, j-1)+T(i-1, j).
