Your complete and properly formatted email must be sent to TapSportsCommunity@glu.com during the Sweepstakes Period to constitute a valid Entry. Each properly formatted and complete email received before the end of the Sweepstakes Period by Sponsor at the above email address is an “E-Mail Entry.” Only properly formatted and complete Email Entries received from Entrants during the Sweepstakes Period will be included in the pool of all of the eligible Entries from which the winning Entries will be drawn.

An In-Game Entry or an E-mail Entry are each individually defined as an “Entry”.

Limitations on Entries: Limit one (1) Entry per person regardless of method of entry; You may not share the same username and/or email address with multiple entrants.  If you attempt to obtain more than the permitted number of Entries by using multiple or different email addresses, identities, or any other method, your Entries will be void.  If you use any automated process or cheat to participate, such as a bot, Sponsors will disqualify you from the Sweepstakes. An entrant may be disqualified from the Sweepstakes if Sponsor determines, in its sole discretion, that an entrant violates Sponsor’s Terms of Use governing the Game available at https://tos.ea.com/legalapp/WEBTERMS/US/en/PC/, as may be amended from time to time. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, interrupted or unavailable network server or other connection; miscommunications; failed phone or computer or telephone transmissions; technical failure; jumbled, scrambled or misdirected transmissions; late, lost, incomplete, delayed, inaccurate, invalid, un-intelligible, or misdirected entries; or other error of any kind whether human, mechanical, or electronic. Entries received within Game attained based on any tampering (cheating) or foul play will render that participant ineligible to receive any prize(s) and may result in participant no longer being allowed to enter Sponsor's other sweepstakes in the future, at Sponsor's sole discretion. All participant Entry information becomes the property of Sponsor and will not be acknowledged or returned. By submitting any online comments, you grant Sponsor an unrestricted, non-exclusive license to the content. Entrants must provide all information requested. Incomplete, unreadable, or unintelligible submissions will be void. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any Entry, the Authorized Account Holder of the in-Game account or email address used to register for Entry will be deemed to be the entrant. The “Authorized Account Holder'' is the natural person who is assigned an account by the Internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning such accounts or the account associated with the submitted email address, or by Sponsor for an in-Game account. The potential winners may be required to show proof of being the Authorized Account Holder. Entrants may not register with multiple email addresses, nor may entrants use any other device or artifice to register multiple times or as multiple entrants. Any entrant who attempts to enter with multiple e-mail addresses under multiple identities or uses any device or artifice to enter multiple times will be disqualified and forfeits any and all prizes won, in Sponsor’s discretion.  Sponsor reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the operation of the Sweepstakes or to be acting in violation of these Official Rules.  

3.   Prizes. There are ten (10) prizes available to be won (each a “Prize” and collectively the “Prizes”). Your odds of winning a Prize depend upon the number of eligible Entries. All values are in U.S. Dollars.

Each Prize consists of one (1) MLB baseball that has been autographed by Bryce Harper.  It is acknowledged and understood that the prizes and associated autographs have not been verified under the MLB Authentication Program or by any other third party. Sponsor reserves the right to make equivalent prize substitutions at its sole discretion. Maximum one (1) Prize per person, per in-Game account, per email address, per household. Prizes must be accepted as awarded and may not be transferred, substituted, or redeemed for cash or otherwise. Winners are solely responsible for all national, federal, state, and/or local taxes, and local contribution, and for any other fees or costs associated with the Prize, if any. If required, any applicable forms will be filed with the appropriate taxing authority. The approximate retail value (“ARV”) of each Prize is USD $175. Total ARV of Prizes is USD $1750.

4.     Winner Selection and Notification. Sponsor will conduct a random drawing from all eligible Entries to determine the potential winner(s) on or about July 5h, 2022, at San Francisco, California. All decisions regarding the selection of the potential winner(s) are final.

Potential winners will be notified on or about July 5th, 2022, by either an in-Game message or by email message via the email address specified in the Entry. Within two (2) days of the Sponsor’s notification, winners must supply any requested information for the administration of the Sweepstakes in English including an affidavit of eligibility and prize/publicity release. Potential winners are subject to verification, including verification of age. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, is ineligible as determined by Sponsor, fails to comply with these Official Rules, fails to respond to the notification within the required time period, fails to provide the requested information, fails to comply with Sponsor’s Terms of Use or the Sponsor’s instructions, or if the prize or notification is returned as undeliverable, the potential winner forfeits the prize.

If a potential winner is disqualified, or the prize is forfeited for any reason, Sponsor will award that prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from all remaining eligible Entries. Only 2 alternate drawings will be held, after which Sponsor may donate the prize to a charity of Sponsor’s choice.

Participation constitutes entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules and to Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Sweepstakes. Sponsor reserves the right to cancel, suspend, or modify the Sweepstakes, (or any part of it) if fraud, technical failure, human error, or any other problem impairs its proper operation. In that event, Sponsor may hold a random drawing from among all eligible Entries received up to the date of suspension for any of the prizes offered. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any person it finds to be in violation of these Official Rules (including tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes) or acting in an unsporting or disruptive manner. If you attempt to deliberately undermine the legitimate operation of the Sweepstakes, it may be a violation of criminal and/or civil law, and Sponsor reserves the right to seek damages from you to the extent permitted by law. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term in these Official Rules shall not be a waiver of that term. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Official Rules shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. If any provision of the Official Rules is determined to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, then the Official Rules will be construed in accordance with their terms as if the invalid or unenforceable provision was not contained therein.

9.   Limitation of Liability. The Released Parties are not responsible for: (1) inaccurate information, whether caused by entrants, typographical errors, or by equipment or programming associated with the Sweepstakes; (2) technical failures, including without limitation network malfunctions, interruptions, or disconnections; (3) unauthorized intervention in the entry process or the Sweepstakes; (4) technical or human error in the administration of the Sweepstakes or the processing of Entries; (5) late, lost, undeliverable, damaged or stolen mail or electronic communications; (6) ineligibility for any reason, including entrant’s misunderstanding of the Official Rules and requirements or the entry process.  If for any reason your Entry is confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost, or otherwise destroyed or corrupted, your sole remedy is another Entry in the Sweepstakes, if possible. Sponsor will award no more than the stated number of prizes. If production, technical, programming or any other reasons cause more than the stated number of prizes to be available and/or claimed, Sponsor reserves the right to award only the stated number of prizes. Some jurisdictions prohibit the limitations described above, so some or all of them may not apply to you.

10.           Disputes. All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to the Sweepstakes, including the marketing and promotion of the Sweepstakes ("Disputes"), shall be determined exclusively by binding arbitration. The only Disputes not covered by this paragraph are claims (i) regarding the infringement, protection, or validity of your, Sponsor's or Sponsor's licensors' trade secrets or copyright, trademark, or patent rights; and (ii) those brought in small claims court.

●      You and Sponsor shall first attempt to resolve any Dispute informally for at least 30 days before initiating arbitration. The informal negotiations commence upon receipt of written notice from one person to the other ("Notice of Dispute"). The Notice of Dispute must: (a) include the full name and contact information of the complaining party; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Sponsor will send its Notice of Dispute to the contact information in your Entry, or other address you provide for this purpose. You will send your Notice of Dispute to: Electronic Arts Inc., 209 Redwood Shores Parkway, Redwood City CA 94065, ATTENTION: Legal Department.

●      If you and Sponsor cannot resolve a Dispute informally, you or Sponsor may elect to have the Dispute finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator shall make a decision in writing and shall provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. You and Sponsor may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

●      YOU AND SPONSOR AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator shall not consolidate another person's claims with your claims and shall not preside over any type of representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.

●      Arbitration will take place at any reasonable location convenient for you.

●      If the arbitrator rules in your favor on the merits of any claim you bring against Sponsor and issues you an award that is greater in monetary value than Sponsor's last written settlement offer made before Sponsor makes its final written submissions to the arbitrator, then Sponsor will: pay you 150% of your arbitration award, up to $5,000 USD over and above your arbitration award and reimburse the arbitration fees that you paid to the AAA.
