ROUND 1 RESULTS - DECEMBER 2001

Thank you for playing in the Contest Center's Tournament of Riches. There were 93 competing entries for the December 2001 Round 1 puzzle. This makes 15 complete groups of 6 players. These 15 winners will receive $35 each, or they may choose to continue to Round 2 and try for $175. There is also one partial group with 3 players. The winner of that group will receive $20. Total prize money for Round 1 is $545 this month.

David Simmonds had the top-scoring solution shown below. Since there were 16 groups, you did not need a top score to win. In fact, you could score 10 points lower and still win. The cutoff was at 224 points.

Here are the winners and their scores:

     234 David Simmonds      226 Earl W. Long
     231 Robert Lawrence     226 Marie Mattingly
     231 Betty Battaglia     226 Paul Riley
     230 Arlin Anderson      225 David Smallberg
     228 Wilma Smith	     224 Lorraine Nott
     228 David Nagel	     224 Barbara Robertson
     228 Laree Avara	     224 Gary DeMarco
     227 Juanita Miller      224 Flo Walters

This is the top-scoring 234-point solution:

 
   S   P   E   L   T	   P   L   38
 
   S	   S	   P   S   T	   34
