ROUND 1 RESULTS - February 2006
      
Congratulations to Joel Prescott
who has reached $1000 in winnings.
He is the 27th player to reach this goal.
He is no longer eligible to play Round 1, so all other players
will move up one place.
      
Thank you for playing in the Contest Center's Tournament of Riches.

This makes 7 complete groups of 6 players.
These 7 winners will receive $35 each, or they may choose to
continue to Round 2 and try for $175.
      
There were 6 entries in Round 2, making 1 group of players.
The winner will receive $175, or may choose to go to Round 3
to try for $1,000.
      
Total prize money won this month is $420.
Total winnings paid in the Tournament of Riches is now $59,623.
      
All winners will receive forms asking if they
wish to continue to the next round.
The forms are enclosed with each monthly mailing.
Winners who wish to risk their prizes and continue to the following
round must sign and return the forms by the given deadline.
Winners who wish to stop and take their prizes may discard
the signature forms.
Winners will receive either their prize check or their higher
round puzzle(s) with the next month's Round 1 puzzle.
If there is an odd number of players for a given higher round, one player
will be held over to a later month.
      
Roger Snead had the 243-point top Round 1 solution shown below.
Since there were 7 groups, you did not need the top score to win.
In fact, you could score 11 points lower and still win.
The cutoff was at 232 points
with 37 on the top row.
