ERROR Contest Battle of all time

[Riggler]

Now, according to the official rules at Heroscape.com for the Battle of All Time contest, each person may enter once during each period of awarding the grand prize.

The second period supposedly began at midnight this morning (8-7-06). So I tried to enter for the second period of the contest and got this message:

"Our records indicate you have already entered this sweepstakes period. Come back next period to enter another chance!"

Not only do they not update their web site. They don't change the programming to follow the rules of their own contest. Sad...[/b]

I got the same silly message.

[Drumline3469]

It told me to log in a then re-entered me.

[toddrew]

No problems re-entering here either.

I thought I read in the rules that if you tried to enter twice you would be disqualified, and that one entry worked for all drawings. Man, I hope I'm not wrong on this one...

[yagyuninja]

If you don't win during one period, you are automatically entered in the next period.

[toddrew]

So, did anybody win the first drawing Assuming it's occured, of course.

[Drumline3469]

Not that I know of, but I have a strange feeling that I'm going to win.

[toddrew]

One can enter once per sweepstakes period(s), and each entry rolls over to the next period. So one can enter up to 5 times, but only win once, of course.

Non-winning entries from each Entry Period will be retained and included in subsequent drawings. Drawings will be conducted by Alcone Marketing Group, an independent judging organization. Odds of winning any drawing will depend on number of eligible entries received for each drawing.

I think the five entries means that if I enter and don't win the first one, that was ONE of my entries, and the automatic re-entry they do for me is my SECOND entry. That make sense?

EDIT: Whoa, fast posting.

Well, sorta - I just read, but didn't take the time to quote

Here's the paragraph above the one you quoted:

Any person who attempts to participate with multiple e-mail or street addresses, under multiple identities or uses any device or artifice to enter more than once per Entry Period will be disqualified.

EDIT: which yags beat me to But I think everyone gets the idea now.
