What the rules say

7 notes

Disqualifiers2

Any one of these can void an entry or a win.

  • Automated entry submissions are prohibited and will void the entry.

    Show the rules' wording· How to Enter (Online)

    “Use of any device to automate entry is prohibited.”

  • A selected online or member finalist who does not respond within 5 calendar days of the first notification attempt forfeits the prize.

    Show the rules' wording· Notification to Contest Finalists

    “no response is received by 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) calendar day following the first attempted communication to the Contest Finalist”

Advantages1

Things in the rules that work in your favor.

  • The online public pool produces exactly one Contest Finalist regardless of how many people enter online, so one online entry has the same odds of reaching the Final Drawing as any other online entrant; from there the winner is drawn from about 18 finalists (roughly 1-in-18 odds).

    Show the rules' wording· sec. C / How to Enter

    “From the pool of On-line Participants, one (1) individual will be selected as a Contest Finalist to be entered into the Final Drawing for the contest prize.”
