The results of the solving contests

Both solving contests on English language contained very nice anagrams. Unfortunatelly, we had small number of competitors. Most of the puzzlers were probably busy for such mental activities, but it’s a pity that some potential solvers don’t want to try something unknown to them. The authors of anagrams surely deserved more support for their effort to prepare quality puzzles.
 
Both winners (David Bourke and Nenad Savić) had 15/20 solutions, which is solid result for this type of tournament. Congrats to David and Nenad, for the prize they will receive excellent T-shirts and beautiful book "Ars Magna" (with anagrams about masterpieces of art). Thanks to the all participants.
 
Solving Contest 1: David Bourke (UK) 15 solutions, Nenad Savić (Serbia) 10, Robert Smith (Canada) 6, Mensur Mamuti (North Macedonia), Aronas Pinchas (Israel) 2. Nenad actually solved 10/10, because he was author of other ten anagrams on this tournament.
 
Solving Contest 2:
Nenad Savić (Serbia) 15 solutions, Robert Smith (Canada) 7, Mensur Mamuti (North Macedonia) 3, Amir Begović (USA) 2.
