Should Organizer receive less than five-hundred (500) Contest Entries, no random drawing will be held and all Contest Entries will be evaluated during the Contestant Selection Phase as outlined below.
   
   b. Contestant Selection Phase: A panel of qualified judges, determined by Organizer and Sponsor in their sole discretion, will select up to seventy-two (72) entrants with the highest-scoring Contest Entries (the “Contestants”) based on the following Judging Criteria:

• Entrant’s video demonstrates skill in playing Fortnite (40%)
  • Elements of skill to be considered are: movement/agility, aim/accuracy/time to kill, building/editing and Entrant’s competitive level as displayed during play
• Entrant demonstrates passion for Fortnite (30%)
• Entrant demonstrates an engaging personality (30%)
  
  
  In the event of a tie, the entrant whose Contest Entry received the highest score for “Entrant demonstrates an engaging personality,” as determined by the qualified judges in their sole discretion, will be deemed the applicable Contestant from among the tied entrants. Sponsor reserves the right to select fewer than seventy-two (72) Contestants, if, in its sole discretion, it does not receive a sufficient number of eligible and qualified Contest Entries. Sponsor will not disclose judging scores.
  
  c. Notification of Potential Contestants & Verification Process: On or before January 27, 2023, potential Contestants will be notified by Organizer by email and will be required to provide their agreement to participate in Tournament Play via a livestream of game play from their perspective during Organizer’s livestreamed events on YouTube, taking place at approximately 7:00 p.m. ET on the following dates: February 3, 2023 and February 10, 2023. Each potential Contestant must also agree that, if selected to continue, they will participate in Tournament Play via a livestream of game play from their perspective in Organizer’s livestreamed event on YouTube on February 21, 2023 and, if further selected to continue, they will travel to Los Angeles, California, (at Organizer’s expense, terms and limitations of which are outlined in Section 7) to participate in live in-person Tournament Play (which will also be broadcast on Organizer’s YouTube channel) on February 28, 2023 in order to be considered for the prizes. All Grand Prize winners will be asked to participate in one (1) additional Fortnite tournament after the Contest is complete, as well as to participate in the creation of one (1) of Sponsor’s social media posts, as directed by Sponsor and/or Organizer.

Potential Contestants’ agreement to participate and publicity and liability release must be received by Organizer within forty-eight (48) hours of the date and time the notification is sent. If a potential Contestant cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the publicity and liability release, fails to confirm they are available for all required Tournament Play or fails to provide any other requested information within the required time period, the potential Contestant forfeits the ability to continue participation in the Contest. Should any potential Contestant forfeit their ability to continue participating in the Contest, the entrant who received the next highest-scoring Contest Entry from the judges may be offered the opportunity to participate, time permitting, subject to the Verification Process outlined above. 
  
  
  d, All Tournament Play: In each Round of Tournament Play each Contestant or team will be given equal time to compete against all other Contestants or teams. At the end of each Round Fortnite will automatically generate a total score for each Contestant based upon kills and placement (“Total Score”). Where Contestants are grouped as a team, the team’s Total Score will serve as each Contestant’s individual score. Contestants and/or teams will advance to the next Round of Tournament Play based on their Total Scores as calculated by Fortnite and verified by Organizer as set forth below. In the event of a tie at any point during Tournament Play, the Contestant or team with the highest score for kills, as determined by Fortnite and verified by Organizer, will be deemed the winner of the applicable Round.
  
  Each potential winner of any Round is considered a potential winner pending verification of their Total Score and continued compliance with these Official Rules. A Contestant is not a winner of any Round, even if a Total Score should seem to so indicate, unless and until Contestant’s Total Score and continued compliance with these Official Rules has been verified by Organizer and Contestant has been notified they will continue to the next Round. Sponsor’s and Organizer’s decisions are final and binding in all matters related to the Contest.
  
  
  (i) First Round Tournament Play for the 72 Contestants: Organizer will present two (2) livestreaming Tournament Play events on YouTube on Friday February 3, 2023 and Friday February 10, 2023 both at approximately 7:00 p.m. ET in which each Contestant will compete via a livestream of game play from their perspective. For the Friday February 3, 2023 Tournament Play event, each Contestant will be randomly placed into a team of three (3) and all teams will compete against each other in Tournament Play. For the Friday February 10, 2023, Tournament Play event, each Contestant will compete as an individual. After the First Round is complete, the twenty-four (24) Contestants with the highest cumulative Total Scores will each be deemed a Semi-Finalist and advance to the Second Round, detailed below.
  
  (ii) Second Round Tournament Play for 24 Semi-Finalists/8 Teams: Four qualified judges, as determined by Organizer in its sole discretion, will each “draft” two (2) three-person teams (each a “Team”) from among the 24 Semi-Finalists, for a total of eight (8) Teams. Unless eliminated or otherwise disqualified, Semi-Finalists will compete in their Teams for the entirety of the rest of the Contest.

The Prize Claim Documents will include an IRS FORM W-9. All Prize Claim Documents must be completed and received by Organizer within twenty-four (24) hours of the time notice or attempted notice is sent. Due to the nature of the Contest, if a background check reveals that a Finalist has engaged in conduct that could damage the reputation of or reflect unfavorably on Sponsor, Organizer or any of the Released Parties, as determined by Sponsor and Organizer in their sole discretion, the Finalist may be disqualified. If a Finalist cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the Prize Claim Documents within the required time period, or their prize is returned as undeliverable, the Finalist forfeits the ability to continue in the Contest and/or the prize, as applicable. If a Finalist forfeits the ability to continue in the Contest or is disqualified for any reason, their place on a Team and any applicable prize may be awarded to the First Round Contestant with the next highest cumulative First Round Total Score, in Organizer’s sole discretion.
