The Website’s database clock will be the official time keeper for this Contest.

Except as otherwise contemplated in these Official Rules, and to the extent entrants may otherwise elect at the time of entry, personal information collected in connection with the Contest will be used in accordance with Sponsor’s privacy policy located at https://www.twitch.tv/p/legal/privacy-policy/.

Entries made by any other individual or any entity, and/or originating at any other web site or e-mail address, including but not limited to commercial sweepstakes subscription notification and/or entering service sites, will be declared invalid and disqualified for this Contest. Tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Contest, including but not limited to the use of any device to automate the entry process, is prohibited and any entries deemed by Sponsor, in its sole discretion, to have been submitted in this manner will be void.

The Promotion Entities assume no responsibility or liability for any error, omission, interruption, deletion, theft or destruction, or unauthorized access to, or alteration of entries.
WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION. Assuming a sufficient number of eligible Submissions are received, at the end of the Promotion Period, a judge or group of judges selected by the Sponsor (in either case, the “Judging Panel”) will review the Submissions that have been received and select up to four (4) of potential winners based on the following criteria: (i) clarity of submission (25%), (ii) novelty and potential impact of proposed idea (25%), (iii) creativity (25%), (iv) appeal to Twitch community (25%) (the “Judging Criteria”). In the event of a tie, the potential winner with the highest score in the “creativity” category will be declared the potential winner.
The potential winners will be subject to verification and compliance with these Official Rules. The potential winners will be notified by direct message using the social media account information used by the entrant to enter the Contest. Sponsor shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential winner for any reason. If, despite reasonable efforts, a potential winner does not respond within forty-eight (48) hours of the first notification attempt, or if the prize or winner notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to such potential winner, such potential winner will forfeit the prize and an alternate winner may be selected. If any potential winner is found to be ineligible, or if the potential winner has not complied with these Official Rules or declines a prize for any reason prior to award, such potential winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected. Sponsor may successively attempt to contact up to two (2) potential winner(s) of an applicable prize in accordance with such procedure, and if there is still no confirmed winner(s) of such applicable prize after such attempts have been made, if any, the corresponding prize may go unawarded.

No cash alternative or substitution of prizes will be allowed, except Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to substitute prize(s) of comparable value if any prize listed is unavailable, in whole or in part, for any reason. Applicable portions of the prizes will be delivered only to addresses in the United States. The total ARV of all prizes awarded in the Contest is Eleven Thousand U.S. Dollars ($11,000).
The winner will be provided their three-day badges upon arrival at TwitchCon 2023 Las Vegas. If any potential winner is unable to attend TwitchCon Las Vegas 2023, the prize may be forfeited.

Failure to do so may result in forfeiture of such portion of prize. Upon any prize forfeiture, no compensation will be given.

In the event TwitchCon Las Vegas 2023 is cancelled or postponed, the TwitchCon Las Vegas 2023 badges will not be awarded and no other compensation for that prize element will be provided.
GENERAL PRIZE CONDITIONS. Prizes will be awarded only if each potential prize winner fully complies with these Official Rules. Prizes are non-assignable and non-transferable, in whole or in part. Prizes pictured in point-of-sale, online, television and print advertising, promotional packaging, and other Contest materials are for illustrative purposes only. The actual prize may vary. All details and other restrictions of the prize not specified in these Official Rules will be determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. No cash alternative or substitution of the prize will be allowed, except Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to substitute a prize of comparable value if any prize listed is unavailable, in whole or in part, for any reason. The winner shall be solely responsible for all federal, state, and/or local taxes, and the reporting consequences thereof, and for any other fees or costs associated with the applicable prize. Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, deduct or withhold the amount of applicable tax on any cash or cash equivalent prize. The Sponsor will issue and file an IRS Form 1099 or equivalent tax withholding documentation for the retail value of any prize or other items of value transferred to the/each prize winner by the Sponsor in accordance with IRS requirements, and the Sponsor may also share such documentation with a state or local government agency as required by law. Refusal or failure of the/each prize winner to satisfy the requirements of all necessary and appropriate tax, withholding or other required compliance terms (including Social Security number, IRS Form W8BEN, IRS Form W9, or equivalent information), as determined by the Sponsor in its sole discretion, may result in the/each prize winner forfeiting the prize(s) and an alternate potential winner may be selected in accordance with these Official Rules. Sponsor will award prizes subject to any applicable withholding taxes, and the amount of the prize transferred, as reduced by any applicable withholding taxes, will constitute full payment of the prize, as applicable. The potential winner may be required to execute an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release, and (where imposing such condition is legal) a Publicity Release (collectively, “Prize Claim Documents”). If a winner is under the age of majority in such winner’s state of residence (a “minor”), at Sponsor’s option, the applicable prize either will be awarded in the name of the parent or legal guardian of such minor winner, or the parent or legal guardian of such minor winner will be required to ratify and sign Prize Claim Documents. If any potential winner (or, in the case of a minor, such minor winner’s parent or legal guardian) fails or refuses to sign and return all Prize Claim Documents by the deadline specified in the prize notification, the winner may be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected. For Canadian entrants only: A potential winner may be required to provide the correct answer to a mathematical skill-testing question (unaided and within a reasonable time as specified by Sponsor or its designee).]
