The one person I know who had two entries printed in a single contest, as I mentioned, used a pseudonym for the second only at Lucy's request. The pseudonym was not for the purpose of fooling Lucy, but, in effect, fooling readers.
But I'll say it once again. The contest does not publish any "rules" as other contests do. The Washington Post Style Invitational has a full set of rules, including a rule saying that you must use your real name and submit no more than 25 entries, but the Spectator has no such rule that I know of. Why would you take steps to avoid a rule that doesn't exist?
