Contest Rules

The following rules apply to all contests run at BobTheWizard.com.

I reserve the right to change the rules at any time. Certain contests might have additional entry opportunities and those will be listed on the contest post.
My contest will have the first, MANDATORY entry listed on the contest post. The following additional entries can be earned, but only after you do the first mandatory contest requirement. If your number is chosen on an extra entry, but you did not complete the mandatory first entry, then you will forfeit and a new winner will be chosen.
Extra entries:
• Tweet the contest @bobthewizard and earn one extra entry per tweet. You can tweet as often as you like for unlimited entries. You must link back in a comment showing me each tweet.
• Subscribe to my blog with email updates for two entries. The subscribe box is in the upper right hand corner. Leave two comments letting me know you subscribed. And although I appreciate the RSS subscriptions they do not count for entries, because I can’t verify them.
• Favorite this blog at Technorati and receive one entry. That’s right, leave me a comment with your Technorati user name so I can verify.
• Blog about my contest on your blog linking back to me and receive 3 entries. Leave me three comments, with the link.

So there you go. There are all the ways to earn extra entries into my contests.

I will not be responsible if you choose to do an entry with three extra entries, but you only leave one comment. That will only be counted as one. I will not go through and add in more entries. One comment = one entry, no matter what.

In addition, contest winners are chosen with Random.org. I will post screen shot of the number chosen as well as the winning entry. If the contest winner wins with an extra entry, I will verify that they completed the mandatory first entry before awarding the prize. The winner will be notified by email (please be sure you leave me a valid one) and will have 48 hours to respond. If the winner does not reply, I will either choose a new winner or give it away during a live giveaway.
Email addresses obtained here on BobTheWizard are used for the sole purpose of notifying contest winners and are never sold or shared. It is not necessary to type your email in the body of the comment since it’s required, and hidden, when you post the comment. I will see it, and nobody will.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thanks so much for entering my contests!
