This is wrong. Actually when you do a "repeat for each" loop, then you
generate automatically a variable at the beginning of the loop and then
use that. Hence it is impossible to change a container directly with
that loop (putting something into "theLine" does not change the
appropiate line of "theWinners"). When you generate another variable
before the loop then that will only use more memory. (I tested that
once and speed is equal for both cases)

However I heartily agree with that.
