ROUND 1 RESULTS - August 2003


       Congratulations to David Nagel who has reached $1000 in winnings. He is the 20th player to reach this goal. He is no longer eligible to play Round 1, so all other players will move up 1 place more.

       Thank you for playing in the Contest Center's Tournament of Riches. There were 60 competing entries for the August 2003 Round 1 puzzle. This makes 10 complete groups of 6 players. These 10 winners will receive $35 each, or they may choose to continue to Round 2 and try for $175.

       Total prize money won in Round 1 is $350 this month. Total winnings paid in the Tournament of Riches is now $48,600.

       Gary DeMarco had the top-scoring solution shown below. Since there were 10 groups, you did not need a top score to win. In fact, you could score 5 points lower and still win. The cutoff was at 210 points. 
Here are the winners and their scores:
 
     215 Gary DeMarco	     212 Thelma Friend
     214 David Simmonds      212 Juanita Miller
     214 Joel Prescott	     211 Wilma Smith
     213 Herbert Carl	     211 Betty Battaglia
     213 Donna Fritschka     210 Eula Gremillion
 
This is Gary DeMarco's top-scoring 215-point solution:
 
   S   P   P	   P   E   R   S   34
 
   P   L   A   T       L   E   T   29

Some players claimed a higher score, but did not have all their words interconnected.
