ROUND 1 RESULTS - March 2008

       Thank you for playing in the Contest Center's Tournament of Riches. There were 30 competing entries in the March 2008 Round 1 puzzle. This makes 5 complete groups of 6 players. These 5 winners will receive $35 each, or they may choose to continue to Round 2 to compete for $175.

       There were 4 entries in Round 2, making 1 group of 4 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 $350. Total winnings paid in the Tournament of Riches is now $63,398.

       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 the number of players for a given higher round is not an even multiple of 6, then some players will be held over to a later month.

       Robert Thrift had the 238-point top Round 1 solution shown below. Since there were 5 groups, you did not need the top score to win. You could score 6 points lower and still win. The cutoff was at 232 points.

       Here is the highest-scoring entry in Round 1 and the list of winners:
