1	38 seconds	Paulo Peixoto	with a touch screen and the minimum moves necessary ^-^ i think there should be a guinness world record for the fastest player of ToH	20070807
2	40.62 seconds	Brennan Vincent	Done with a Towers of Hanoi game for the computer and fast fingers. I wish more people were interested in ToH and I encourage competition.	20060701
3	53.55 seconds	Peter Greenwood	After seeing this puzzle on SCC, I had to try, because I know I am very fast at it. Timed this with Dan Knights cube timer, and used a calculator program for the towers on my TI-83PSE. I broke 60!!! So whats next? I encourage competition!	20050804
4	54 seconds	Kevin Khan	n/a	20060309
5	54.87 seconds	Christopher Yi	This is real easy if you have quick and hands and you know what to do. =) I can probably break this record because i ended up idling for 2-3 seconds. Did this with my math teacher's towers of hanoi set :)).	20060210

7	1 minute 15.70 seconds	Caillan Fellows	WHOA!!!!!	20090507
8	1 minute 16 seconds	Arun Jayendran	I solved using a mouse based computer Tower of Hanoi game. Really easy to solve having known the basic trick.. profile:http://www.orkut.com/Profile.aspx?uid=11255587025457993933	20070707
9	1 minute 30 seconds	Robin Westhaver	Using the traditional 3 peg wooden set. The physical aspect of having to get each ring through a peg each move is really slow! I need to find a computer version too, so it becomes pure mental speed as suppose to physical speed.	20081123
10	1 minute 40 seconds	Jeff Goetz	Once I found the trick to this puzzle it became very easy. With more pieces, even though takes longer it's still easy. Mine goes up to 10 pieces, and that takes about 30 minutes.
11	1 minute 52 seconds	Alex Powell	First half was nearly perfect. It is much harder with 8 rings than 7, and I was surprised by the difference.
12	2 minutes 10 seconds	Andrew Nelson	I'm getting faster.	20060616
13	4 minutes 24 seconds	Joshua Woelmer	i saw this record and immediately had to do it. My friend had written a java applet for a school project, so that's what I used- a bit hard to use, but that can be fixed. 132 moves- made a small mistake in there that cost me 5 moves from optimal :- I can get better!	20070529
14	7 minutes 31 seconds	Joey Spadafora	This was not an optimized solve, and I'm sure this time can be improved upon a whole lot..I need to work on figuring out exactly how the recursion works.but I was hoping that for one time for a little bit, I could be first in something. Tower of Hanoi is the stack of discs on top of each other, where you cannot move a larger onto a smaller, or you break the rules. I encourage plenty of competition, and will improve this time if necessary.
15	1 hour 29 minutes	Brian McCabe	Using a single suit of 13 cards as a 'tower' and using one hand only for moving the cards 8191 moves completed whilst on guard duty as a young soldier in Malta in 1951.	20070518
