Only one Entry per person. If multiple entries are received by the same entrant, only the first Entry submitted by that entrant will qualify for entry in the Contest; subsequent entries submitted by that entrant shall be disqualified. Each entry must, however, have at least one (1) valid email account in order to qualify. By entering, entrants agree to be bound by the decisions of the judges and these Official Rules and to comply with all laws and regulations.

Entries which are mutilated, incomplete, illegible, inaccurate, forged, irregular in any way, or otherwise not in compliance with these Official Rules are also void. In the event of a dispute concerning who submitted an e-mail entry, the Entry will be deemed to have been submitted by the authorized holder of the e-mail account from which the Entry is made. The "authorized account holder" is the natural person to whom an email address is assigned by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address.
