Well I feel slow, lol. My first try took me 9:56:17. Moves: 319. I knew how to do it, I just don't think I used a very efficient method!

I got interrupted a few times and had to step out, also jammed the reset button in frustration a few times, so the score is just the first time I finished it: 6:14, 169 moves.

I think I found a strategy, but it might spoil it for other people. Maybe I'll post it later.

Cool game.

(Edit: yeah. 3:25, 131 moves the next time. The strategy seems to hold up.)

3:38:56, 206 moves. I had a plan of attack, but I got a little distracted and (almost) lost track of my algorithm midway through. Trying again...

201 moves, 5:11. I know I can do better than that... I also got confused partway through, and basically had to undo everything I'd done...
*goes back to try again*

127 moves, 3:15. That's the fewest moves possible, but I bet someone can beat my time.

algorithm...yeah, I didn't go that route, I took the "wing" route, lol...hence my sloth

First try: 127 moves - 1:51:38
Second try: 127 moves - 1:21:75

To be honest though: I happened to solve a 9 level Tower of Hanoi twice, to get it perfect, just a few days ago when I was bored and stumbled upon another online simulation of it.

Nikita... I remember playing this alot as a kid you know when computers were black screens with fluorescent green displays LOL

I found that it ended up being really intuitive after a while...on the old keyboards I would arrange 3 fingers and in the end the solution was very "rhythmical" typing-basically I could have done it with my eyes closed it was more about feeling the rhythm...if you get what I mean...

I had a friend who could beat me in mario kart with his eyes closed the entire race. I guess it kinda gets like that with enough practice LOL! Have fun!!!
