*Just a note: I'm sorry the Daily Visit score isn't more 'every day' instead of its current 'every 24h1m', but that is just the front end tracking for you guys and when we run the lotto we pull from a more accurate list. So for those of you visiting every day diligently but not triggering the Daily Visit score reward, don't stress about it!
- Contests are NOT limited to the US/NA.
- You have to be willing to provide a valid mailing address and/or email address as these are physical prizes. At the end of the month winners will be contacted on N4G via PM or Contest Ticket.
More Info on the Forum Lottery (what follows ONLY applies to the Forum Lottery):
What it is
-a monthly lottery contest where the winner(s) will receive various prizes.
How it works
-Using a random generator engine we choose a forum, active thread and a winner.
The finer details:
-Single post wonders, spammers, rude or offensive remarks all result in a DQ.
-The sub-forums located in the N4G related block (Announcements & Rules, contributor, etc) will not be eligible to win, nor will comments made within the Randomicity thread.
-You can only win the Forum Lottery once every six months.
