All Promotion prizes are randomly seeded at predetermined designated winning times (each, a “Winning Time”) throughout each day during the Promotion Period. The first entrant to submit a game play at a Winning Time will be the potential winner of the seeded prize. If no entrant submits a Game play at a Winning Time, the first entrant who submits a Game play after the Winning Time will be the potential winner of the seeded prize. If the on-screen message you receive upon submitting a Game play says “Sorry, you’re not a winner this time”, you are not a prize winner.
