OFFICIAL RULES
BY PARTICIPATING IN THE COMPETITION YOU UNDERSTAND
AND AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
- What does this mean? This is our new marketing performance
competition for our affiliates who bring us paying sign-ups for
WildMatch.com and ImLive.com.
- Who manages the competition? The
competition is run by PussyCash's and ImLive Affiliate Program's
owners/operators - I.M.L. SLU ("I.M.L. SLU").
- Who is eligible for the competition? All registered affiliates of PussyCash
and ImLive Affiliate Program are automatically included in the
competition. (No purchase is
necessary). You must be 18 to
participate in the competition (21 in AL, MS,
NE, WY, and any other location where 18 is not the age of majority). Notwithstanding the aforesaid, affiliates who have been awarded a prize in excess of US$5,000 by I.M.L. SLU in the past (Pussycash or ImLive) shall not be entitled to win this competition
- When is the competition? The competition runs 24/7 from November 1,
2005 (00:00 EST) to January
31, 2006 (23:59 EST).
- What is the winner's prize? The winner of the competition will be
awarded $50,000.
- How does it work? Each hour of each day between November 1,
2005 (00:00 EST) and January 31, 2006 (23:59 EST) the
affiliates bringing the first five paying sign-ups registered in fact by
ImLive.com and WildMatch.com beginning at the top of the hour will receive
a '$50,000 ticket' for each such paying sign-up he has brought in. (The total here is five per hour - not
five per site per hour, i.e., not ten per hour). This means each day up to 120 '$50,000
tickets' are assigned. '$50,000
tickets' are assigned in consecutive order. For example, on November 1, 2005 between
00:00 and 01:00 (EST) the affiliate(s) bringing the first five paying sign-ups
will be assigned '$50,000 tickets' 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively. Between 01:00 and 02:00 on the same
date, assuming five '$50,000 tickets' were obtained in the previous hour,
the affiliate(s) bringing the first five paying sign-ups will be assigned
'$50,000 tickets' 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 respectively. This means that up to 11,040 '$50,000
tickets' will be assigned (24 hours multiplied by 5 numbers per hour multiplied by 92 days
in November, December and January).
- What are my chances of winning? That
depends first on how many '$50,000 tickets' you have. Odds of
winning a prize for a particular '$50,000 ticket' will be 1:11,040 or
better. Each '$50,000 ticket' is a
separate and equal chance to win the $50,000 prize.
- The winner.
- Between February 1, 2006 and February
15, 2006 a number between 1 and 11,040 (or lower number equal to the total
number of '$50,000 tickets' assigned if less than 11,040 were assigned in
fact) shall be selected in a random drawing overseen by our attorney and/or
accountant. The affiliate who
holds the same unique '$50,000 ticket' as selected randomly shall be deemed
the winner.
- The winner shall be announced on
PussyCash and on ImLive.com. We
shall also seek to reach the winner by telephone and/or email in order to
notify him.
