c. the NFL's official stats shall govern the correct answers to the questions.
5. Identity of Entrant: All entries must be submitted by the individual entrant. Bulk or automated entries will be disqualified (including entries made using any script, macro, bot, or promotional service). Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email account. Any attempt to obtain additional entries through fraud or other illegitimate means will result in disqualification, at Sponsor's discretion.
In the event of a dispute about the identity of the entrant, entries will be declared made by the authorized account holder of the email address submitted with the entry. An "authorized account holder" means the natural person who is assigned to an e-mail address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning e-mail addresses for the domain associated with the submitted e-mail address. A potential winner may be required to provide Sponsor with proof that a potential winner is the authorized account holder of the account associated with the winning entry.
6. Selection and Notification of Winner: On or around December 27, 2022, Sponsor (or its designee) will tabulate the results of the questions answered in connection with the Contest to determine whether any entrants answered all fourteen (14) questions correctly. If Sponsor determines that that only one (1) entrant answered all fourteen (14) questions correctly, such entrant will be deemed a potential winner of the Grand Prize, subject to these Official Rules. If Sponsor determines that two (2) or more entrants answered all fourteen (14) questions correctly, then Sponsor will conduct a randomized drawing of such entrants to select the name of one (1) potential winner of the Grand Prize, subject to these Official Rules. If Sponsor determines that no entrant answered all fourteen (14) questions correctly, no entrant will be eligible for the Grand Prize and the Grand Prize will not be awarded.
Entrants who answer all fourteen (14) questions, but who do not answer all fourteen (14) questions correctly, will be ranked on a leaderboard based on the number of points awarded and earned correct answers to each question presented as part of the Contest. Contestants are awarded points for correct predictions, and the number of points awarded will depend on the number of contestants who also correctly predicted the outcome (e.g., more points awarded for a correct prediction that fewer contestants predicted). No points will be awarded for incorrect predictions. Additional points may be awarded for other actions or predictions that are part of the Contest as determined by Sponsor from time to time during the Contest Period ("Bonus Points"). For example, Bonus Points may be awarded for participating in a user survey or poll. Bonus Points will be a fixed number of points and will be determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Sponsor reserves the right to add or change how points can be earned and such changes or additions will not materially change the overall manner in which the Contest is operated or the processes for determining the winners of any Contest.
Sponsor (or its designee) will determine the leaderboard rankings by tabulating the results and corresponding point values of the questions answered in connection with the Contest. The fifteen (15) highest scoring entrants (by number of points awarded) will be selected as the potential winners of the Secondary Prizes outlined in Section 7 below, subject to these Official Rules. If Sponsor determines that two (2) or more entrants have tied for any given leaderboard ranking, then Sponsor will conduct a randomized drawing of such entrants to select the name of one (1) potential winner of the corresponding Secondary Prize (with the remaining entrant(s) filling in the next highest leaderboard ranking(s) and being named the potential winner(s) of the corresponding Secondary Prize(s) until no leaderboard positions remain).
The odds of winning either the Grand Prize or any Secondary Prize depend on the number of eligible entries received.
Each potential winner will be notified via email on or around December 29, 2022. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sponsor may require each potential winner to sign and return, as specified by Sponsor, an Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release in order to claim his/her prize. If (i) the attempted notification is returned as undeliverable without a forwarding address or the potential winner does not respond within 72 hours of being notified by Sponsor; or (ii) any required documents are not returned as specified by Sponsor, such as the Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release; or (iii) if potential winner is otherwise unable to accept the prize as stated, the prize will be forfeited and may be awarded to an alternate winner. One (1) alternate potential winner will be selected for each prize (the alternate being the next highest scoring entrant on the leaderboard subject to the terms and conditions of these Rules), after which the remaining prizes will not be awarded. If, by reason of a print or other error, more prizes are claimed than are available under these Official Rules, an alternate winner will be selected in accordance with the above selection process from among all eligible claimants making purportedly valid claims to award the prizes available.
Verification of Potential Winner: EACH POTENTIAL WINNER IS SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE CONTEST. AN ENTRANT IS NOT A PRIZE WINNER UNLESS AND UNTIL ENTRANT'S ELIGIBILITY HAS BEEN VERIFIED AND ENTRANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THAT VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE AND NO FURTHER ACTION IS NEEDED.
