ROUND 1 RESULTS - January 2006


       Thank you for playing in the Contest Center's WORD WELTER puzzle contest. There were 15 Round 1 entries and 4 Round 2 entries received for the January 2006 puzzles.

       Since half of the players win, there are 7 Round 1 winners and 2 Round 2 winners.

       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.

       Lee Morgenstern had the 1596-point top-scoring solution. Since there were 7 winners you did not need the top score to win. In fact, you could score 63 points lower and still win. The cutoff for winners was at 1533 with first word APOTHEOSIS. Winning Round 1 prizes of $18 each are
