I took time off from doing this week's crossword to analyze the list of this week's winners. Note that there are 25 second time winners with last name beginning with letters A-H and only three between I-Z. Last week's list of winners had a similar pattern. There are no first time winners in this week's list of winners. Are puzzle solvers with last names starting with I-Z failing, or is there a problem with the last two lists of winners?
