COMMENTS
This sequence has the form (0+12k, 0+12k, 2+12k, 2+12k, 3+12k, 5+12k, 5+12k, 6+12k, 7+12k, 7+12k, 9+12k, 10+12k, 10+12k) for k >= 0.
Theorems: A) Generally for an interval (2*m*(n-1)^2,2*m*n^2) and a divisor d with 2*m < d there is a unique d-length form (e_i+2*m*k)_{i=0..d-1, k>=0} with e_i in [0,2*m]; here m = 6, d = 13.
B) Sum_{i=0..d-1}e_i = m*(d-2); here 66 = 6*(13-2).
Proof:
A) In d consecutive intervals
(2*m*(n-1)^2,2*m*(n+2)^2) there are m*d*(2*k+d) consecutive odd numbers and therefore m*(2*k+d) multiples of d where k=floor((n-1)/d).
B) With initial value a(0)=0 we have a(d)=2*m and thus Sum_{i=0..d-1} e_i = Sum_{i=1..d}a(i)-a(d) = m(2*0+d)-2*m = m*(d-2). Q.E.D.

FORMULA
a(n + 13*k) = a(n) + 12*k.
a(n) = 12n/13 + O(1). - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 29 2017
From Colin Barker, Jul 03 2017: (Start)
G.f.: x^2*(1 + x)*(1 - x + x^2)*(2 + x^2 + x^6 + 2*x^8) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 + x + x^2 + x^3 + x^4 + x^5 + x^6 + x^7 + x^8 + x^9 + x^10 + x^11 + x^12)).
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-13) - a(n-14) for n>13.
