Hi from NYC. 

I kept the 4 in place for the 3

Thanks, rigged2!  Works like magic!

What else are you doing that I'm not doing, Ruby? Oh well. I finished with reasonably good time and am not high moves but definitely not low moves. Good night!

Good one rigged2! 

Thanks, rigged2!  The playing from the right brought my moves down!

Well, there it is, but can't really say what I did. Played from the right mostly, I think.

OK, watz happening here? More than an hour after the puzzle posts and I solve it first time at 111, then come back here to find only 7 people have solved it and scores are not posting?  This is not right! I KNOW I did not beat out all the best players. 

Thanks, Ruby and Rich. It didn't last long but was nice while it lasted.

I agree ValleyKnitter.
