Listen to KQXL-FM for the designated instructions to call the station to participate in the contest, and be the randomly selected 10th caller taken by the station to participate in the contest.
Finalist Selection: A maximum of one (1) contestant will be selected for each contest attempt. The eligible contestant will be the 10thcaller as identified by the contest administrator, who is eligible to participate in the contest. Any selected caller who does not meet the eligibility requirements or does not wish to participate in the grand prize contest will be disqualified. An alternate contestant will then be selected by taking the next caller. This process will continue until an eligible contestant has been identified to participate in that scheduled contest attempt.
The eligible caller selected will be allowed to participate in the grand prize contest. Decisions of the contest administrator in determining the correct caller and official finalist for each contest attempt are final and binding in all matters relating to this contest. Any difficulties with phone lines or busy signals to enter the contest are not the responsibility of the Sponsor.
How to Play: A predetermined grand prize winning (4) digit number for this contest has been randomly pre-selected and placed in a sealed envelope prior to the start of the contest. This winning number will be programmed into the key pad and locking mechanism on the designated “Bank Vault” that will be used for all contest attempts. The random selection of the winning 4-digit number and the programming of the “Bank Vault” will be conducted by an independent 3rd party promotions company. Each eligible contestant will each be given a maximum of one opportunity to attempt the contest.
Once selected as an eligible contestant, the contest will be played as follows:
- The eligible contestant must provide their full name, address and phone number along with their (4) digit number guess to the Administrator conducting the contest. This information will be recorded by Administrator;
- The Administrator conducting the contest will record the contestant’s name and their (4) digit number guess exactly as recorded on air into the contest registration binder;
- The Administrator will then enter the contestant’s (4) digit number guess exactly as recorded in the registration binder into the digital key pad on the ‘Bank Vault’, followed by the *-key on the key pad. (Example – if the contestant’s number guess is 1-2-3-4, the Administrator will enter 1-2-3-4-* on the casino vault key pad.)
By participating in the contest, contestants agree not to hold Sponsor liable for any accidental human error in the recording of the contestant’s 4-digit number guess, or the entry process of entering the guess into the keypad on the vault. The grand prize will not be awarded as a result of an incorrect entry into the key pad.
Claiming the Grand Prize: In order to claim the grand prize:
- The contestant’s 4-digit number guess as recorded on air must exactly match in order with the predetermined grand prize winning number that is contained in the sealed security envelope, and that was programmed into the vault;
- The Administrator must trigger the locking mechanism and open the vault only by means of entering that winning (4) digit number guess into the key pad on the vault.
The (4) digit number provided by the contestant on-air, recorded by the Administrator in the official registration binder and entered into the key pad on the vault must exactly match the predetermined winning (4) digit number that was randomly pre-selected for this contest, and that is contained in the sealed master envelope. The grand prize will not be awarded as a result of any of the following reasons including, but not limited to:
- Any number guess recorded on air and entered into the digital key pad that does not match the actual predetermined grand prize winning number contained in the sealed master envelope;
- Any tampering, malfunction, damage, or use of physical force that causes the bank vault to unlock or open by any means other than by entering the winning combination;
