Official Rules for the Wolfram Demonstrations Challenge
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.
1. ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: Participants, aged 18 and up, are eligible to win a prize ("Prize") after submitting a completed Wolfram Demonstrations Challenge Entry ("Entry"). By entering this Wolfram Demonstrations Challenge ("Challenge"), participants agree to accept and be bound by these Rules.
2. ENTRIES: On April 4, 2011, Wolfram Research, Inc. ("Wolfram") will launch the Challenge Website ("Website") and begin the Challenge. Participants may then use their Wolfram ID or register for a Wolfram ID and submit entries via the Website until 5pm U.S. Central time April 18, 2011 ("Entry Deadline"). All entries must be submitted via the Website submission form, and received by Wolfram prior to the Entry Deadline. There is a limit of one entry per Wolfram ID. The first 100 participants who submit an acceptable Entry will receive a paper "Spikey" kit with a special set of instructions on how to assemble their Spikeys. Spikey shipments will be made shortly after submission.
3. CHALLENGE ENTRY CRITERIA: The Entry must be completed in full. Partial submissions will not be accepted.
4. WINNER DETERMINATION: Winners will be selected randomly from completed entries by Wolfram after the official end of the Challenge.
5. WINNER NOTIFICATION: Winners will be notified by Wolfram within one week after the Challenge ends, via the email address provided through the Website's submission form. At Wolfram's sole discretion, a replacement Winner may be selected if: (i) any prize notification is returned as undeliverable, (ii) a Winner declines his or her prize, or (iii) a Winner is determined to be ineligible for any reason.
6. PRIZES: Winners will receive the prizes indicated on the Website. In the event that the prize is a type which a Winner cannot use because of licensing or other technical issues, the Winner shall have two options: a) assign, but not sell, the prize to a colleague or associate or b) accept a replacement prize of equal or lesser value as offered by Wolfram. Winners are responsible for the reporting and payment of all applicable taxes incurred by the acceptance of any prize.
