YES

From https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/open-thread-274 :
> Last year people kept guessing that various reviews were by me, and I had to reassure you that no, I hadn’t secretly entered my own contest. This year I refuse to confirm or deny anything, so have fun speculating!

If there is no definitive statement on this from Scott 32 days after announcing the contest winner, resolves NO. Otherwise resolves to what Scott says.
