THE SKILL OF THE ENTRANTS, STATUS OF THE ENTRANTS (REGULAR ENTRANT OR MAD LAB

a tie, the player whose entry form has the earliest postmark date will win the
higher ranking prize.

the right to determine the method of notification. Winners must claim their
prize within three (3) business days after the date of notification of such

may also be selected from the pool of eligible entries.

MOST FAMOUS OPPONENT CONTEST
This portion of the contest has been discontinued (August 26, 2005). We
determined it was impractical due to logistics of product endorsement issues
and ease of photo fakery.
