Contest Rules Please read!

1. By posting a tweet on Twitter with the hashtag #ccefgg, you signify that you agree to and will abide by all rules listed herein.
2. Employees--whether full-time, part-time, or contract--of the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation (CCEF) and New Growth Press and their immediate families are not eligible for this contest.
3. To be considered valid entries, Twitter messages must contain both of the following:
   • The hash tag #ccefgg.
   • A link to some active page on the web site http://www.ccef.org and a description of the content of the linked page (such as an article title). Because a Twitter message ("tweet") is limited to 140 characters, we suggest using a URL shortening service to encode and reduce the size of your link. Our favorites are tr.im and cli.gs. Others include tinyurl.com and bit.ly.
4. Only one Twitter message per day per Twitter account will be counted as a contest entry. You are welcome to tweet about CCEF as often as you like, of course, but only one tweet per day (meeting the requirements above) will be counted as an entry.
5. Entries must be posted on Twitter by a human entrant. CCEF reserves the right to declare ineligible any entry it suspects of being generated by automated means. The creation of multiple Twitter accounts by the same owner that appear to exist for the sole reason of creating entries to this contest may result in their owner being banned from the contest. CCEF reserves the right to disallow any entry it deems inappropriate, obscene, vulgar, or offensive. All entry tweets should reflect the character of Christ underlying the values of CCEF and http://www.ccef.org.
6. All prizes will be awarded. For the Daily Prizes, a drawing will be held each evening of the contest from all valid tweet entries posted between 5:01 p.m. the previous day and 5:00 p.m. the day of the drawing. Daily Prize winners are not eligible to win another Daily Prize (only one Daily Prize per Twitter account), nor are they eligible for a First Prize. However, all Daily Prize winners remain eligible for the Grand Prize drawing at the end of the contest. Otherwise, one prize per Twitter account.
7. Winner of Grand Prize is responsible for all other expenses for the Conference other than the admission, including but not limited to transportation, meals, and lodging. Grand Prize is transferrable (perhaps you'd like to give it to your pastor!).
8. If winner of book or audio course resides outside the United States, CCEF reserves the right to substitute the same or similar resource in downloadable mp3 format for the physical prize.
9. A drawing for the Grand Prize and the two First Prizes will be held on September 16, 2009, from all eligible entries.
