in the October 28, 2004 issue of Sports
Illustrated on Campus and will be
distributed at 74 selected college
campuses nationwide. To play using a

www.gmoncampus.com during the entry period
and follow all on-screen instructions to
complete and submit the official entry
form. Once you have reached the
NetDecoder® Game Page, follow the on
screen instructions to reveal if you are a
winner. All NetDeCoder Game Pieces must be

Method #2: Play GM ON Campus Virtual Game:
To play the GM On Campus Virtual Game
("Virtual Game") without a

during the entry period and follow all
on-screen instructions. Limit: One entry
per person per day regardless of entry
method.
If you are the
potential winner of an Instant Win Prize,
you will receive an email explaining fully
how to claim your prize. Use of any
automated system to submit entries is
prohibited and will result in
disqualification. In the event of a
dispute as to any online entry, the
authorized account holder of the email
address used to enter will be deemed to be
the entrant. The "authorized account
holder" is the natural person assigned an
email address by an Internet access
provider, online service provider or other
organization responsible for assigning
email addresses for the domain associated
with the submitted address. Potential
winners may be required to show proof of
being the authorized account holder. 122
random-computer-generated winning times,
will be created for the Entry Period. If
you are the first entrant to play at or
after one of the randomly generated times,
you will be a potential winner of an
Instant Win Prize. If you are the
potential winner of an Instant Win Prize,
you will automatically receive a
notification message at the email address
you used to register on the official entry
form. All potential instant prize winners
are subject to verification by the sponsor
and/or the independent judging
organization, whose decisions are final.
An entrant is not a winner of any prize,
even if the instant win game should so
indicate, unless and until entrant's
eligibility and the potential winning play
has been verified and entrant has been
notified that verification is complete.
Sponsor will not accept screen shots or
other evidence of winning in lieu of its
validation process. Any play that occurs
after the system has failed for any reason
is deemed a defective play and is void. No
responsibility is assumed for lost,
mutilated, misdirected, incomplete,
illegible or postage due prize claims.
NetDecoder® Game Pieces that contain
printing errors, are tampered with,
illegible, mechanically reproduced,
distributed where prohibited by law or not
obtained through regular channels will be
deemed null and void. Liability for any
irregular NetDecoder® Game Piece will
be limited to replacement with another. If
through programming or production errors,
more Instant Win Prizes are distributed
than those prize quantities offered in
these rules, no more than the actual
number of prizes per these rules will be
awarded. Should such a situation occur,
each winner will be determined in a random
drawing from among all submitted eligible
and verified winning prize claims at that
given level. All materials submitted
become the sole property of the Sponsor
and will not be returned.
