- Eligibility: Pictionary QR Code Sweepstakes (“Sweepstakes”) is only open to permanent legal residents of the fifty (50) states of the U.S. and the District of Columbia (“D.C.”) (excluding Guam, Puerto Rico, and all other U.S. territories and possessions) who are currently physically located therein. All entrants must be eighteen (18) years of age or older as of the date of entry. Entrants must have either a valid Social Security number or a valid U.S. Individual Taxpayer Identification Number. Employees of Otter Creek Productions, LLC (“Sponsor”), Fox First Run, LLC, the Pictionary television program (“Show”), ACTV8me, Inc., Enteractive Solutions Group, Inc. (“Sweepstakes Administrator”), Sullivan Compliance Company, participating stations, stations airing the Show, streaming services, cable operators, multiple service operators, their advertising or promotion agencies, those involved in the production, development, distribution, implementation or handling of the Show or the Sweepstakes, any agents acting for the above entities, their respective parent companies, officers, directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, service providers, prize suppliers, or any other person or entity associated with the Sweepstakes (collectively “Sweepstakes Entities”) are ineligible to enter the Sweepstakes. Immediate family members (i.e. a spouse, domestic partner, child, sibling, or parent) and/or any person, whether related or not, living in the same household of an individual affiliated with a Sweepstakes Entity are also ineligible to enter the Sweepstakes.
- Sweepstakes Period: For all purposes of this Sweepstakes, the Sponsor’s computer is the official clock, and all times refer to Eastern Time (“ET”). This Sweepstakes consists of two hundred sixty (260) individual daily non-connecting sweepstakes (each an “Individual Sweepstakes”) each corresponding to an episode of the Show. Each Individual Sweepstakes begins at 9:00 a.m. ET and ends the following day at 8:59 a.m. ET (each a “Daily Entry Period”) beginning Monday, September 11, 2023 and ending Friday, September 7, 2024 “Sweepstakes Period”). Episodes of the Show are scheduled to air Monday – Friday. Entrants may check local TV listings for Show schedules in their local viewing area, which may be changed or pre-empted without notice in one or more broadcast areas (e.g. due to changes to the production schedule, special announcements, programs that may disrupt normal TV programming or local station programming pre-emptions). In these cases, at the election of the Show, the Sweepstakes may be played outside the above-stated dates, individual Shows and their corresponding call-to-action for the Sweepstakes may be aired on dates different than originally scheduled, or, the Sponsor may not re-broadcast that particular Show.
- How to Enter: During each Show prospective entrants will be prompted to participate by scanning the QR Code displayed on the screen which will direct them to a microsite (“Microsite”) where they must provide the following information: first name, last name, telephone number, email address, the answer (“Answer”) to a multiple-choice question (“Question”) presented in a video drawing and agree to abide by these Official Rules and Sponsor’s Terms of Use (“Entry Information”). After successfully submitting the Entry Information, said entrant will then receive one (1) entry into the applicable Individual Sweepstakes (“Entry”). The video drawing auto-plays for approximately four (4) seconds before stopping. Then a ten (10) second countdown clock starts, and the entrant must choose the correct Answer from among the choices provided before the clock runs out. Answer(s) must be correct and entered within the corresponding Daily Entry Period in order to be eligible. Entries for the last Daily Entry Period must be received by 8:59 a.m. ET on September 7, 2024. Limit one (1) Entry per person/per email address/per Daily Entry Period. All required Entry Information must be completed in full, be current, accurate, and valid. The Entry Information must match the information of the entrant that completed the act of physically entering the Sweepstakes. If an entrant is from a jurisdiction that deems him/her to be a minor, he/she must obtain parental/legal guardian consent prior to entering or submitting any personally identifiable information. For the purposes of this Sweepstakes, a minor is defined as a resident of Alabama or Nebraska who is under nineteen (19) years of age, or a resident of Mississippi who is under twenty-one (21) years of age (“Minor”). By submitting an entry form, each entrant confirms the accuracy and veracity of the statements and information contained therein. Proof of submitting an Entry will not be deemed by the Sponsor as proof of entry into the Sweepstakes. Any attempt by an entrant to obtain more than the stated number of Entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations, logins, AI generative technology, or any other methods other than as described herein, including, but not limited to, commercial contest/sweepstakes subscription notification and/or entering services, will void that entrant’s Entries and that Entrant may be disqualified. If entrants use a web-enabled mobile device to participate, data rates may apply (entrants should contact their service provider for data rates/plans). Entrants should use care and not drive or operate machinery while entering the Sweepstakes.
- Fan Fun: After each Individual Sweepstakes ends, episodes that are viewed after the 24-hour period or viewed on streaming services that contain the call-to-action QR code will re-direct viewers to a microsite (“Fan Microsite”) that is separate from the Sweepstakes Microsite. Once a viewer is at the Fan Microsite, he/she must follow the registration steps and correctly answer a question to earn points. Each correct answer earns ten (10) points. Incorrect answers will not result in any points for any participant. As fans continue to participate by viewing more episodes, they will be served different Questions and accumulate points over time for the opportunity to earn Show-related items including, but not limited to, hats and t-shirts. Points have no monetary value, and a participant must abide by the terms and conditions of the Fan Microsite. Participation in the Fan Microsite will not result in a prize being awarded to a participant and is not required for entry into the Sweepstakes.
- Prizes/Odds of Winning: A total of two hundred sixty (260) separate prizes will be awarded in the Sweepstakes (one (1) prize per Individual Sweepstakes). Prizes may include a gift card or a paid subscription service for a pre-determined amount of time valued between $100 and $500 (actual prize awarded in Sponsor’s sole discretion and subject to availability). The approximate retail value (“ARV”) of each prize: up to $500. Odds of winning depend upon the total number of eligible Entries received during the applicable Daily Entry Period for that particular Individual Sweepstakes. Limit one (1) prize per person for the entire Sweepstakes. No cash equivalent for a prize(s) will be available. Gift card/subscription service cannot be exchanged/redeemed for cash or combined with any other offer and is subject to stated terms and conditions. The prizes are not transferable. However, Sponsor may, in its sole discretion choose to substitute a prize (or prize component) of equal or greater value due to unavailability or for any other reason. All expenses associated with the receipt or use of a prize not specifically mentioned as being included are excluded and is the sole responsibility of each winner(s). As applicable, prizes will only be mailed/shipped/electronically delivered to persons residing in the U.S. and D.C. All federal, state, or other tax liabilities (including but not limited to income taxes) arising from the Sweepstakes or award of a prize will be the sole responsibility of each winner. Any depiction of the prize(s) in promotional materials or otherwise is for illustrative purposes only. Final eligibility for the award of any prize is subject to eligibility verification as set forth in these Official Rules. The Sweepstakes Administrator is not the supplier or guarantor of any prize.
- Drawings: One (1) potential winner for each Individual Sweepstakes will be randomly selected from all eligible Entries received during the corresponding Daily Entry Period in a series of drawings to be held on or about two (2) business days after each Daily Entry Period ends by the Sweepstakes Administrator (“Random Drawing(s)”). Non-winning eligible Entries will not be retained or entered into subsequent Individual Sweepstakes.
- Notification/Verification: Each potential winner will be notified via a text message, email, or phone call (or any combination thereof) at the telephone/mobile number/email address provided on his/her Entry by the Sweepstakes Administrator within approximately three (3) business days from the applicable Random Drawing. If a potential winner(s) is from a state that deems him/her to be a Minor, his/her parent/legal guardian will be notified instead. If potential winner(s) cannot be reached after two (2) notification attempts; if he/she is found to be ineligible; if he/she does not comply with these Official Rules; or if his/her prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, and the applicable prize will not be awarded for that Individual Sweepstakes.
- Privacy Policy: Any personal information supplied by entrants to the Sponsor or its affiliates will be subject to the Show’s Privacy Policy (foxfirstrun.com/privacy) and Terms of Service (foxfirstrun.com/termsofuse). Thus, except where prohibited by law and Show’s Privacy Policy: (1) entry and/or a winner’s acceptance of a prize constitutes permission for the Sweepstakes Entities to use the such person’s name, address (city and state), photo(s), likeness, biographical information, statement and voice for advertising/publicity purposes worldwide and in all forms of media (including posting on the Show’s Microsite, website, and social media channels) in perpetuity, without further notice to or compensation in connection with the Sweepstakes or the prize awarded; and (2) the Sponsor has the right to modify, edit, adapt, electronically alter, use, assign and/or dispose of such Entries however it sees fit and for any purpose without any notice or compensation to an Entrant or any third parties. Entrants understand, agree, and consent that any personally identifiable information provided to the Sweepstakes Administrator may be retained and used for the purposes of this Sweepstakes (including but not limited to any applicable record keeping, tax forms, state registrations, and/or any Prize fulfillment related obligations). The Sweepstakes Administrator does not and will not sell the personally identifiable information of any entrant or winner. Furthermore, the Sweepstakes Administrator will not share or disclose any personally identifiable information to any third-party company or business unrelated to the Sweepstakes. Additionally, if an Entrant chooses to opt-in to receive communications from a participating Sweepstakes Entity, his/her Entry Information will be subject to that Sweepstakes Entity’s privacy policy and terms of service (if applicable), and such entrant agrees to receive additional email communication from that particular Sweepstakes Entity. Opting in to receive communications does not improve one’s chance of winning. The privacy policy for any Sweepstakes Entity participating in an opt-in will be accessible from the Sweepstakes entry form(s).
- General Conditions: The Sweepstakes is governed by all applicable federal, state, and local laws, and by these Official Rules. By entering the Sweepstakes, each entrant agrees and acknowledges to be bound by these Official Rules, as well as the decisions of the Sponsor/Sweepstakes Administrator which are final and binding in all respects; to waive any rights to claim ambiguity with these Official Rules; to indemnify and hold harmless the Sweepstakes Entities from any and all liability resulting or arising from the Sweepstakes or the use of any submitted Entry; and to release all rights to bring any claim, action, or proceeding against the Sweepstakes Entities. Once submitted, Entries become the sole property of Sponsor and will not be returned. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual found to be tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes; to be acting in violation of the Official Rules; or to be acting in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner, or with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any other person. Any person attempting to defraud or in any way tamper with this Sweepstakes will be ineligible for a prize. If, for any reason, the Sweepstakes is not capable of running as originally planned, the Sponsor in its sole discretion, reserves the right to cancel, suspend, or modify the Sweepstakes or any portion(s) thereof and instruct the Sponsor’s designee(s) to conduct the applicable Random Drawing(s) and award the prize(s) from all salvageable eligible Entries received prior to and/or after (as appropriate) the action taken by Sponsor or award the prize(s) in a manner that is fair and equitable. Notice of such action by the Sponsor will be posted at the Microsite as well as any other applicable social media platforms. In case of a dispute over the identity of an Entrant who submitted a winning Entry, the authorized account holder of the email address associated with that Entry will be deemed the Entrant. Said person must be the Entrant, comply with these Official Rules, be the person who completed the act of entering, and, in Sponsor’s sole discretion, may be required to provide proof of ownership of the email account.

- GOVERNING LAW, JURISDICTION, ARBITRATION: Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to (i) the Sweepstakes, (ii) the awarding or redemption of a prize, and/or (iii) the determination of the scope or applicability of these Official Rules or their enforcement or interpretation, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the U.S. State of California without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions that would cause the application of any other state’s laws. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this agreement, its enforcement, arbitrability or interpretation shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration, to be held in Los Angeles County, California, U.S. before a single arbitrator, in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 1280 et seq. The arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of Sponsor and the Entrant(s) bringing forth the controversy or claim, which to the extent permissible must be brought individually and not as part of a class/group (collectively the “Parties”) or, if the Parties cannot agree, then by striking from a list of arbitrators supplied by the American Arbitration Association or JAMS/Endispute. The arbitration shall be a confidential proceeding, closed to the general public. The arbitrator shall issue a written opinion stating the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator’s award is based. The Parties will share equally in payment of the arbitrator’s fees and arbitration expenses and any other costs unique to the arbitration hearing (recognizing that each side bears its own deposition, witness, expert and attorneys’ fees, and other expenses to the same extent as if the matter were being heard in court). Each Entrant agrees that his/her claim will be resolved individually, exclusively by arbitration, without resort to any form of class action. Each entrant further agrees that any claim/judgment/award in such arbitration shall be limited to actual out-of-pocket costs incurred, including costs associated with participating in the Sweepstakes but in no event attorneys’ fees; and, under no circumstances, will an entrant be entitled to awards. Each Entrant hereby waives all rights to claim punitive, incidental and consequential damages and any other damages, other than for actual out-of-pocket expenses, and any and all rights to have damages multiplied or increased. Should any term of this section be deemed void by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction, unenforceable or contrary to law, such term shall, but only to the extent necessary to bring this section within the requirements of law, be deemed to be severed from the other terms of these Official Rules, and the remainder of these Official Rules shall be given effect as if it had not included the severed term herein. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ALL CLAIMS AND ISSUES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT AND INCLUDING ANY CLAIM FOR FRAUDULENT INDUCEMENT THEREOF.
