Forty Thieves Scoring

Hi, would it be possible to have another league table for forty thieves so that fewest moves is what is shown. Any fool (sic) can solve it quickly but to do it in as few a moves as possible requires an amount of finesse. Just the way we play it, takes the first game idea to another level.....
cheers

If you look at the scores, look for the heading marked moves and click on it. Then the scores will be ordered by the moves instead of speed.
How fortuitous that i exhibited more finesse than foolishness today.
I know you can order the scores but for the game of the day league tables, they are only done on time........
Hey lasso I have always admired your fortuitousishness.....
@Annie-Rism you can see the daily leader board results in move mode if you choose. Quoting Jim (GFG) : “Turns out sort by moves on the leader board was fairly easy since it already worked on game pages. Have fun with it!”

Lasso, I would love to know your fortuitousness & follishness. Is there a strategy, is there a logic to solving 40 Thieves?
Hahaha. If you are serious: save small cards for later by using the face up piles for storage.. Play on the aces from the deck. A tip that works better than half the time, so i employ as long as the aces are not buried in the piles.
Also, follyishness is a fairly accurate description.,
Do you bail if it looks hopeless? Like aces buried at the top of the thieves piles? Two's and three's coming up almost immediately?
And follyishness for me is starting a game at bedtime...
I play regardless of the initial set up. Try to see how many i can get.
