For some odd reason, I had some song lyrics in my head, whilst reading this story:

"...But the hangman isn't hangin'—just too tired to keep his feet. ...So he went back, Jack, and did it again..."

It'd make a good country western song.

How did he not make it higher on the list? Did the list start over each time rather than starting where it left off? Maybe alphabetically? Last one in, first one hanged?

Now that’s some story. If I’d been in his shoes I think I’d have changed my name to Zachary Zebulon Zzybra.

Try to be scheduled as the last hanging of the day. That way the hangman will be too tired to carry out the deed. Avoid being the first one to be hanged on Monday.
