the game selected; where you are playing a game against other
users of the website, your chances of winning may depend on the number
of other players and their skill in playing the game; for sweepstakes many will enter and few will win;

(for example, a trivia game where none of the players answers the
questions correctly);

allocation of prizes by country, state, province or region;
Some sweepstakes may have age restrictions, so check the official rules for terms and conditions that apply;

instructions carefully; however, unless we tell you otherwise, there

applicable to the sweepstakes or contest entered or game selected;

game, so read the game instructions carefully;
Prizes will be awarded without undue delay for contests or otherwise in accordance with the official rules for the sweepstakes;
You may need permission from your parent or legal guardian to enter certain sweepstakes; and
