Each written story must be in English unless Sponsor expressly permits otherwise, must not exceed 500 words, and must be the Entrant’s original, truthful, and accurate account of the Entrant’s Furnished Finder experience. Entries must not include confidential, sensitive, or highly personal information of the Entrant or any third party; unlawful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, vulgar, lewd, hateful, discriminatory, or otherwise objectionable content; third-party intellectual property, including copyrighted text, images, music, video footage, trademarks, or logos; or the name, image, likeness, voice, or other identifying information of any third party unless Entrant has obtained all required permissions. Optional videos must not include music, television, movie, online video clips, or other copyrighted footage unless Entrant owns or has secured all necessary rights. Sponsor may disqualify any Entry that Sponsor determines, in its sole discretion, does not comply with these Official Rules or may expose Sponsor to legal, reputational, or other risk.
Sponsor is not responsible for any failure of the entry page during the Entry Period, including any technical malfunction of any computer, online systems, servers, access providers, computer equipment, software, or failure of any e-mail to be received on account of traffic congestion on the internet, or any combination thereof, including any injury or damage to an Entrant's or any other person's computer related to or resulting from downloading any material related to the Contest, all of which may affect a person's ability to participate in the Contest.
Subject to Sponsor's sole discretion, any Entry that incorporates elements that are lewd, offensive, vulgar, sexual in nature, involve nudity, defamatory, infringing, or otherwise considered illegal shall be disqualified from the Contest.
SKILL-BASED SELECTION; NO RANDOM DRAWING:
This is a skill-based contest. There will be no random drawing. An Entrant’s likelihood of winning depends on the quality of the Entrant’s eligible Entry as evaluated under the judging criteria below and on the quality and number of other eligible Entries received.
HOW TO WIN:
There will be a total of ten (10) winners, to include: (a) a total of five (5) landlord winners, and (b) a total of five (5) traveler winners.
Following the Entry Period, a panel of judges consisting of Sponsor employees and/or qualified designees by Sponsor will review Entries and select the winning Entries based on three equally weighted criteria:
(1) Authenticity: the extent to which the Entry appears genuine, personal, and based on the Entrant’s own experience;
(2) Emotional Resonance: the extent to which the Entry tells a compelling story about what Furnished Finder made possible for the Entrant; and
(3) Content Usability: the extent to which the Entry is clear, complete, appropriate for Sponsor’s potential marketing or promotional use, and consistent with the theme of the Contest.
In the event of a tie, the tied Entries will be re-evaluated based first on Authenticity, then Emotional Resonance, and then Content Usability, until the tie is broken. The judges’ decisions are final and binding in all matters relating to the Contest.
PRIZE:
Five (5) landlord winners will each receive an extension of their subscription on FurnishedFinder.com for a two (2) year period.
