oh lol, that makes sense now.
 
Cool, thanks OP and thanks Sdawg for the link.

alternate entries,being able to read small text ftw[/QUOTE]

1,000 Potential prize winners will be selected in 1,000 individual random drawings (approximately 23 random drawings per Daily Prize Period) conducted approximately once each hour during the Entry Period from among all eligible entries received each day. Non-winning entries will NOT be carried over to any subsequent Daily Prize Period. Odds of winning a prize will depend on the total number of eligible entries received during each Daily Prize Period.
I think I'll email everyday instead of sending a txt.

[quote name='A Gamer']Odd.. That page says you should text "NOW" to that number, not "SKATE" as seen in the in-game billboard...[/QUOTE]

I tried texting SKATE first, and got a confirmation txt back. When I txted NOW, it said that I had already entered. So, I'm guessing that it's the same thing.

Found some more keywords: NOW, SKATE, ROCK, SNOW, SPEED
All for the same promotion. My guess is that they want to know which billboards work best... :roll:

It might not matter what you send as long as you send something.

Thanks OP.

[quote name='songoku0987']so its not like the deadliest catch fiasco?[/QUOTE]
Nah... This is just like the McDonalds promotion...

[quote name='nnthomas']So you have to email them once per day?[/QUOTE]
Looks that way... Entered yesterday, got the confirmation. Tried again late last night (before midnight PDT), and got the 'already entered' email. Tried again this morning, and didn't get anything? Tried again a few hours later, and still nothing... :roll:
 
[quote name='WzNtHa']so are the winners notified everyday? and did anyone win yet?[/QUOTE]

Wondering about this myself.

I entered once yesterday and another time today. Yet to see anything besides the auto-reply :( At least let me know if I lost. lol

Just like the McDonalds promotion, the subject for the winning entry confirmation, already entered, and winning messages are the same... So be sure to read them all before you delete.

I entered yesterday afternoon, then got a 'already entered' late last night (before midnight PDT), and then tried twice today. I did not get any messages back for my entries today, so I don't know if this was a win from yesterday, or from today's submissions... It could be that I won yesterday but since it is only one prize per person the entries submitted today were silently ignored?

Thanks OP

You must be notified every day. I entered at 5:10 am and got my 800 points at about 4:00 pm today.
 
5thfinger, again... I hope I do better than I did in their McDonalds promo.
Thanks, dev1n540, for the heads up on the contest. Thanks, Sdawg, for the alt entry link.

edit: And, thanks to CBolt for pointing out that line of text in the rules. I would have assumed non-winning entries rolled over like last time.
