FALSE. Such an announcement would (a) be false, because per Rule 2343, "Victory Conditions are satisfied instantaneously, not continuously," (b) not be a Victory Announcement because it would not satisfy the form required by Rule 2343 (the announcement must state that they have satisfied, not currently satisfy, a victory condition), and (c) not be a Victory Announcement unless it was labeled as such, and might additionally be false if those persons were not players, or the contestmaster was referring to a different contest than eir own when announcing that they "won the contest".
