Well, I managed to catch you, Dilip. Too bad I can't get even lower to take away your star!

Thanks Suzie! I'm having fun trying to catch the big ones!!!

Tammie: congrats on moving up closer to lowest moves today. It's good to have someone else in the mix for some real competition. It takes awhile to figure out what you have to do and don't have to do to get up to (or near) the top of the list when starting to play this game for lowest moves, and you show that you've got a lot of it figured out.

fab: good for you in reaching 131 BOTH ways. Now if one of us could just get 128 and beat Dilip at his game!!! No offense, Dilip, just a wish for a little more successful friendly competition!

SuzyQ I am just back and I saw Dilip lowered his moves.... In my case, I reached 131 in both ways (6 or 6)

No big surprise, Dilip. You got me again!!! You never cease to amaze me!

SuzyQ, you are right, your comment shouldn't be rated as misleading, because I used your hint and got the lowest moves so far, two moves lower than earlier. Thanks for the hint.

For the person who marked my comment "misleading," please note I am now tied for lowest moves. (I expect Dilip or someone else will get even lower, though.) Yes, the game can be solved by using 6, but I got lower moves by waiting for the 6. I'm curious if Dilip, fab and emm used the 6 or 6 first.

Wait for 6.

Ok follow both my hints... I am a genius, but it is inspite of myself LOL!!!!
