The Political Pundit (Breakout Broadcaster) Competition (the "Competition") is a skill-based Competition in which Contestants will compete to become one of two  Grand Prize winners. Though Contestants will be able to upload their Video entries (the "Competition Entry(ies)"), which must in the English language,from Monday, January 28, 2008 ("Soft Launch Date"), the Competition officially begins at 12:00:00 AM Eastern Time ("ET") on Monday, February 11, 2008 (the "Competition Start Date"), when Contestants (the "Contestant(s)" or "You") will be invited to enter one (1) video ("Video") into Round 1 of the Competition. There is no fee required to enter the Competition or your Video. Video submissions in any Round must be no longer than ten (10) minutes in total running time.

Each of the two (2) winners of the Competition will be flown, all-expenses paid (travel, accommodation, meals) for three (3) nights, to either the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado ("DNC") or Republican National Convention in Minneapolis, Minnesota ("RNC") to serve as an official Project Breakout Webcaster reporting at either the DNC or RNC. (the "Grand Prize(s)").

Members of the general public ("Public Voters") are invited to access Project Breakout's Internet website and the Broadcasting Competition tab to view the Competition Entries and to vote for their favorite Contestant. (See Section 3, below, for the classes and definitions regarding participation in the Competition.) Immediately upon upload of the Contestant's Entry Materials, the Public Voters will be able to view, share, comment, and from the Competition Start Date, vote, on each Contestant's Entry Materials. Contestants may submit their Competition Entries from the Soft Launch Date until 11:59:59 PM ET on Sunday, April 20, 2008 (the "Round 1 End Date"), and their Competition Entry Materials may be voted on by the Public Voters during any weekly voting and entry period (the "Weekly Competition Period").

For a period of ten (10) weeks, beginning at 12:00:00 AM ET on the Competition Start Date and on each of the nine (9) successive Mondays thereafter, Contestants will be able to enter the Weekly Competition until 11:59:59 PM ET on the following Sunday (each such period is a "Weekly Competition Period"). The three (3) Contestants receiving the greatest number of votes each week, from the Public Voters will move into the final round (the "Finals"). Those Contestants not advancing into the Finals will be automatically entered into the next Weekly Competition Period and until the Round 1 End Date will remain eligible to advance into the Finals, but each such Contestant's Public Voter vote count will be re-set to zero at the beginning of each Weekly Competition Period. Any Contestants not advancing to the Finals by the Round 1 End Date will be eliminated from the competition.

On the Round 1 End Date, a total of thirty (30) Finalists will have been selected by the Public Voters. Beginning at 12:00:00 AM ET on Monday, April 21, 2008 (the "Finals Entry Start Date"), each Finalist will be required to submit one (1) new, original Video (the "Finals Entry(ies)") by no later than 11:59:59 PM ET on Sunday, April 27, 2008 (the "Finals Entry End Date"). Other than their Round 1 Competition Entry, each Finalist's Finals Entry may be, but it is not required to be, selected from other Videos uploaded to the Finalist's public profile page (the "Profile(s)"). Beginning at 12:00:00 AM ET on Monday, April 28, 2008 (the "Finals Voting Start Date") until 11:59:59 PM ET on Sunday, May 4, 2008 (the "Finals Voting End Date"), the Public Voters will be able to view and vote on, and our panel of judges (the "Judges") will review and vote on, the new Competition Entries from the Finalists. Following the Finals Voting End Date, for each Finals Entry the Operator will calculate the Judges' average ranking and tabulate the vote of the Public Voters and determine the final ranking of each Finals Entry based on a vote weighting of seventy-five percent (75%) in favor of the Judges and twenty-five percent (25%) in favor of the Public Voters (the "Combined Voting"). On Monday, May 5, 2008 (the "Winner Announcement Date"), the Operator will notify the two (2) Finalists receiving the highest (the "Grand Prize Winner") rankings in the Combined Voting, and announce the Grand Prize Winners on the Competition Site.
 
Judging Criteria: In Round 2, the Judges will evaluate Contestants based upon each Competition Entry's abilities as a broadcaster.

Following the Winner Announcement Date, the Operator will make arrangements for the Grand Prize Winners to be flown all-expenses paid (travel, accommodation and meals) for three (3) nights to the DNC or RNC to enjoy their Grand Prize (See Section 8, Competition Prizes).

California Release of Claims. All California Contestants acknowledge that there is a possibility that, subsequent to its involvement with the Competition and adherence to this Official Rules, the Contestant may discover facts or incur or suffer claims which were unknown or unsuspected at the time agreeing to these Official Rules, and which if known by the Contestant at that time may have materially affected its decision to participate in the Competition. Such Contestants acknowledge and agree that by reason of these Official Rules, and the release contained in the preceding subsections, the Contestant is assuming any risk of such unknown facts and such unknown and unsuspected claims. Such Contestants acknowledge that they have read these Official Rules and, as such, hereby have been advised of the existence of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides:

(1)      "A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."
Notwithstanding such provisions, this release shall constitute a full release in accordance with its terms. Such Contestants knowingly and voluntarily waive any statute, law, or rule of similar effect, and acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material term of these Official Rules, and without such waiver the Contestant would not have been permitted to participate in the Competition or compete for or receive a prize. Such Contestants acknowledge and understand the significance and consequence of this release and of this specific waiver of such laws.

At any time during the Competition, Operator reserves the right, in its sole and unfettered discretion, to disqualify and remove any Competition Entry that it believes contains any inappropriate content, infringes the rights of any third party, or otherwise does not meet any other requirements in these Official Rules. The Operator reserves the right to disqualify any Participant, including any Trivia Participant or any Weekly Trivia Winner, and/or Competition Winner in the event that the Operator believes, in its sole discretion, that such Participant and/or Competition Winner used technology to gain an unfair advantage over other Participants or Contestants (including but not limited to use of software and computer programs intended to automatically vote or fill out website forms); has engaged in fraudulent conduct; or has failed to comply with the Operator's Terms of Use, or if the Participant is in breach of these Official Rules in any manner. The decisions of the Operator on this and all matter relating to the Competition are final and binding.

All eligible Competition Entries will be displayed on the Competition Site starting on the Competition Start Date. Between the Competition Start Date and the Finals Voting End Date, anyone will, according to the Competition Description noted in Section 1 hereof, have the opportunity to view and vote on Competition Entries, which Public Voters may do simply by playing a Video and clicking on the Vote button. To be a Public Voter, you must complete basic registration and be logged in when voting. Contestant Competition Entries not advancing through to the Finals in any given week will have their Competition Entries automatically entered in the subsequent week through to the Round 1 End Date. Public Voters will be able to vote again on such Competition Entries, though the vote count of such Competition Entries from the previous week will be re-set to zero. If for any reason any of the Competition Winners or Contestants advancing through to the Finals is disqualified due to a violation of the Official Competition Rules or the Operator's Terms of Use, then the Contestant receiving the next highest number of votes will be deemed a Competition Winner or advance through to the Finals and receive, along with the other non-disqualified Competition Winners the according prize, or qualify for the Finals, as the case may be.

Multiple Competition prizes (the "Competition Prize(s)") will be awarded, as noted in this Section 8.

 

The likelihood of becoming a Competition Finalist or the Grand Prize Winner depend upon the number of eligible submissions, each Contestant's broadcasting skills, and total votes cast.

Participants will also have a chance to win prizes by participating in random, daily 3-question trivia challenges ("Trivia Challenge(s)") which involves responding to regular questions posted on the Site by the Operator relating to the Competition and/or Competition Entries, as follows:

(a) Participants must be registered and logged into the Competition Site to participate in a Trivia Challenge. A Participant entering a Trivia Challenge is referred to as a "Trivia Participant".

(b) Questions are randomly drawn from the Operator's database and a Trivia Participant must answer three (3) consecutive questions correctly in order to be entered into the random weekly draw that will occur at 12:00:00 PM ET each Monday ("Weekly Draw") during the Competition beginning on Monday, February 11, 2008 until Monday, May 5, 2008, for a chance to win a fifty U.S. Dollars (US $50) gift card (the "Weekly Draw Prize") for use at an online retailer to be determined from time to time by the Operator and published on the Site in conjunction with a given week's Trivia Challenges. If successful, a Trivia Participant shall be notified promptly that they have correctly answered a Trivia Challenge and have qualified for the random Weekly Draw. A Weekly Draw winner shall be referred to as a "Weekly Trivia Winner". Each Weekly Draw will be conducted on a random, computer-automated basis, and the Weekly Draw Winner shall be notified promptly by the Operator. Odds of Winning: The odds of winning the Weekly Draw are dependent upon the number of Participants qualifying each week for the Weekly Draw.

(c) If a Trivia Participant answers any of the three (3) questions incorrectly, he/she will have unsuccessfully completed that Trivia Challenge and will not be entered in the Weekly Draw, but may immediately participate in another 3-question Trivia challenge and, if successful, qualify for the Weekly Draw. Note that Participants must answer 3 consecutive questions correctly and may not have 3 correct answers from different Trivia Challenges combined in order to qualify for the Weekly Draw.

(d) Participants may enter as many Trivia Challenges as are offered by the Operator on the Site from time to time.

(e) The Operator reserves the exclusive right to post as many Trivia Challenges as it determines suitable, will not be required to post a minimum or maximum number of Trivia Challenges during the Competition, and in its sole determination may modify, terminate or delay the posting of Trivia Challenges at any point in the Competition. At its sole discretion, the Operator may also suspend or cancel any Weekly Draw during the Competition. Trivia Participants shall have no right of recourse against the Operator for any such modification, delay, suspension, cancellation or termination.

(f) The odds of winning a Weekly Draw depend on the number of Trivia Challenge winners. A Trivia Participant's chances of winning a Weekly Draw are increased by the Trivia Participant successfully answering as many Trivia Challenges as possible. Once a Trivia Participant has successfully completed a Trivia Challenge in a given day (the "Daily Trivia Challenge"), he/she will not be able to answer further Trivia Challenges that day and must wait until the following day to attempt to answer additional Trivia Challenges. A Trivia Participant will be able to successfully complete a maximum of seven (7) Daily Trivia Challenges in a given seven (7) day week.

(g) The cash prize value of the Weekly Draw Prize is fifty U.S. Dollars (US $50).

(h) Only residents of the United States & District of Columbia and Canada, who are 16 years of age and over, can participate in the Trivia Challenges. Void where prohibited or restricted, including the states of Rhode Island, Arizona, Iowa, Vermont and Connecticut, and the province of Quebec.

In addition to the Competition Prizes noted above, Contestants entering the Competition  from February 18 to 24, 2008 (the “Special Prize Period”) will be automatically entered into a special prize drawing (the “Special Prize Draw”) and be eligible for a special prize consisting of a Canon Digital Camcorder from Best Buy, with approximate cash prize value of three hundred fifty dollars ($350). The winner of this Special Prize Draw (the "Special Prize Winner") will be selected randomly from those Contestants entering the Competition during the Special Prize Period and whose entries are not disqualified (the “Qualified Contestants”). The odds of the winning this sweepstakes component of the Competition depend on the number of Contestants entering the Competition during the Special Prize Period.

Competition Prizes consist of only those items specifically listed as part of the prizes. No substitution or transfer of prize is permitted, except that Operator reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal or greater value in the event that an offered prize is unavailable.

Failure by each of the Winners to return or deliver the executed Release within the time periods specified, or non-compliance with these Official Rules, or inability to notify any of the Winners will result in that Winner's disqualification and forfeiture of the prize, and an alternate Winner may be selected from remaining eligible entries. If a Winner cannot be reached after a reasonable effort has been exerted, if the Winner is found to be ineligible, the Winner cannot or does not comply with these Official Rules, or if the Competition Winner's prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, such Winner will be disqualified and an alternate Winner may be selected at Operator's sole discretion.
