To provide fair and equal chance of winning to all Gawker Media readers, the following are the official rules for all
contests on Gawker Media websites.

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. PURCHASE WILL NOT IMPROVE CHANCES OF WINNING.

All winners must be 18 years of age or older, unless otherwise stated and/or
posted.

1. Entering Contests and Choosing and Contacting Winners

Winners of random
email contests will be chosen at random from emails received.

Entrants must
send entries using the correct contest entry email address, subject line,
and any other specific entry information requested in the contest
announcement. Gawker Media is not responsible for and will not consider incomplete
or incorrect entries, or emails sent but not received by Gawker Media for
any reason, as potential contest winners.

Winners of all contests will be contacted
at the “sender” email
address used to enter the contest, and the person receiving and replying
to the winner announcement email will be considered the winner unless they
specify
another person within the reply email as the winner. Gawker Media will mail
the contest prize to the address supplied by the recipient of the winner
announcement email.

Only one entry per email address used to send the email
will be considered for contest entry, unless multiple entries are specifically
allowed in the
contest posting. Unless otherwise specified in an individual contest post,
no person may enter any contest more than once using multiple email addresses.

Claiming
of prizes requires an email response to Gawker Media from the winning
sender email address within 30 days of being notified of winning at the email
address used to enter. Failure to respond shall mean that the winner
forfeits
the prize. Gawker Media is not required to award elsewhere any prizes
forfeited by the chosen winner(s).
