Subject: FED Contest Results
Organization: University of Western Ont, London
Date: Wed, 18 Nov 1992 08:43:18 GMT

As most people know, David Nied of Atlanta was taken in the 

            FED (First Expansion Draftee) Contest

      When I started the contest, I expected that there would be
considerable speculation in the media about the protected lists,
along with considerable speculation about who would be taken
first. I'm embarrassed, though, that I didn't anticipate with higher
probability the actual events, namely, that the protected lists were
leaked and that members of the media rooted out the number one
picks of Colorado and Florida.

      Had I anticipated these events better, I would surely have
cut off the deadline for entries about four days ago, or possibly
even earlier. The result of the information made available from
the media was that I received many last-minute entries and
changed entries which utilized the additional information. 

      Listed below are the are the draftee-entries in the order in which
they were selected in the draft, along with the names of the
entrants for each draftee IN THE ORDER IN WHICH I RECEIVED THEM. 

      I know that in the earlier postings, I said arm-wrestling
Roger Maynard would be the tie-breaking activity, but in the light
of the changes in the way people voted, and as organizer of the
contest, I unilaterally declare the victor to be Jim Gindin, who
selected David Nied long before the protected lists were released.
Others who selected Nied may not have seen the protected lists
either, but I received his entry first.
