I don't think it's correct as stated in the article.

Looking at the paper, it basically says: the orbit starting with N dips to f(N) for "most" N, where f is a function that goes to infinity.

So, you can't pick f(N) = 200, but you can at least pick an f(N) that goes to infinity really slowly--a lot more slowly than previous results (f(N) = ~N^0.7924 is mentioned as a previous result).
