I agree with 6, 7, 8 first.  Am also using 5 first. Still way behind Larryt, though.

Thanks Larryt. The keys to the kingdom.  
At least I got to within "sniper range" of the board this time at 102. Too bad I am a lousy "marksman."  
(I really should quit reading so many spy novels.)

Everyone have a good day.

For what it's worth, I'm using 6 - 7 - 8 first, but there must be a better way to do it.

I FINALLY finished it ONCE with 113, though it felt more like 213. All I could say 6 first and then do the shuffle off to Buffalo, Harlem shuffle, and every other kind of shuffle to finish.   --  Tho, obviously you'd be better off with a clue or two, Blue's or otherwise from the low scorers -- iffn they had offered any. The group is playing close to their shirts tonight.

My brain is still addled with anaesthetic!

No, I did finish once, but not after that.  Don't pay any attention to me…just in a frustrated mood…but laughing, too. 

I think she finished it once, Di, if I understand what she's written. I finished but with high moves.

Just to be clear, you haven’t finished the game, but you have a score of 108?

I’ll let Donna know, she’s our go between with the administration.

Since the new people took over, Ruby, the game has become unpredictable. In my last turn, I made a move, but my move count didn’t increase. It only happened once, but it’s not good.
