Overview

Crowdini is a question and answer knockout contest.  Each day a question is asked that has 2, 3 or 4 possible answers.  The winning answer is the answer given by the majority of the contestants.  The majority is determined by all answers given in all active contests.  A new contest starts daily and each contest awards one prize.

1. Eligibility

3. Timing

The first Contest starts on November 1, 2012 at 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time (“ET”). Each day thereafter a new Contest automatically starts until such time that Crowdini provides written notice (which may be an electronic notice) that no new Contest will be offered. Crowdini can provide such notice at anytime in its sole discretion.

4. How to Register

You can register for a Contest in one of the following ways: 1) at crowdini.com; or 2) or through a mobile application. Registration for each Contest is free.  Registration is limited to one registration per person per Contest. Multiple participants in a Contest are not permitted to share the same email address or device. Any attempt by any participant to obtain more than the stated number of registrations per Contest by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, logins, or any other method will void that participant’s registrations in each affected Contest. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Crowdini is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible or misdirected registrations, all of which will be disqualified.

5. How to Participate

After you register for a Contest, you will be able to participate in such Contest by answering a question of the day. Each day starting at 7:00 a.m. ET and ending the next day at 6:59 a.m. ET you will be presented with a question of the day. At the end of such day, Crowdini will tabulate all responses to that day’s question (across all Contests active at the close of such day) and determine which response received the majority. If your response to the question of the day was with the majority you move on in the Contest for which you were registered at the start of such day. If your response to the question of the day was not with the majority, you are eliminated from the Contest for which you were registered at the start of such day. If you do not respond to a question of the day, you are automatically eliminated from the Contest for which you were registered at the start of such day.  If you are eliminated from a Contest, you are able to register for and join a new Contest starting at 7:00 a.m. ET of the day following the day you were eliminated. No one is eliminated from a Contest (except those that did not provide an answer to the question of the day) if every Contest response is not in the majority.

6. Winner Selection

If you are the last person in a Contest to have your response to the applicable question of the day be in the majority, you will be eligible to win the prize that was identified for such Contest on the day such Contest started. You will be notified by email that you are a potential winner after the relevant Contest is over using the email address provided with your registration.  You must respond in writing (by email or otherwise) within five (5) days after the date such notification is sent, and may thereafter be awarded the prize, subject, however, to verification of eligibility and compliance with the other terms of these Official Rules.  Failure to respond to the initial verification e-mail within five (5) days of notification will result in your disqualification from the Contest and you will no longer be eligible to win the prize.  Odds of winning a prize depend on the number of eligible contestants competing in the individual Contest.

7. EACH POTENTIAL CONTEST WINNER IS SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION OF ELIGIBILITY AND OF COMPLIANCE WITH THESE OFFICIAL RULES BY CROWDINI WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE CONTESTS. Crowdini’s decisions as to the administration and operation of each Contest and the selection of each Contest’s potential winner(s) are final and binding in all matters related to each such the Contest.

8. Verification of Potential Winner

A potential Contest winner must continue to comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. A potential Contest winner will be notified by email. A potential Contest winner must sign and return to Crowdini, within five (5) days after the date notice is sent, an affidavit of eligibility and a liability/publicity release (except where prohibited by applicable law) in order to claim his/her prize. If a potential Contest winner of any prize cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return an affidavit of eligibility and a liability/publicity release (except where prohibited by applicable law) within the required time period, or if the prize or email prize notification is returned as undeliverable, such potential Contest winner is disqualified from the applicable Contest and forfeits eligibility for and all rights to be awarded the prize for such Contest. In the event that a potential winner of a Contest prize is disqualified for any reason, Crowdini may award the applicable prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all contestants that were in the last round of the relevant Contest.

NO MORE THAN THE STATED NUMBER OF PRIZES WILL BE AWARDED FOR ANY CONTEST. IN THE EVENT THAT PRODUCTION, TECHNICAL, SEEDING, PROGRAMMING OR ANY OTHER REASON CAUSES MORE THAN THE STATED NUMBER OF PRIZES AS SET FORTH IN THESE OFFICIAL RULES TO BE AVAILABLE AND/OR CLAIMED FOR A CONTEST, CROWDINI RESERVES THE RIGHT TO AWARD ONLY THE STATED NUMBER OF PRIZES FOR SUCH CONTEST BY A RANDOM DRAWING AMONG ALL LEGITIMATE, UNAWARDED, ELIGIBLE PRIZE CLAIMS.
