The Promotion is subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations. Participation constitutes entrant’s (or if you are a minor in your jurisdiction of residence, your parent/legal guardian’s) full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules and Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Promotion. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein. The Promotion consists of a sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”).

2. Sponsor
The Sponsor of the Promotion is Raffstar, LLC, which is located at 1002A S. Mingo Road, Suite 256, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74133.

3. Timing
The Promotion begins on 6/23/2009 10:15 am ('ET') and ends on ticket number 50000 (the “Promotion Period”). Sponsor’s computer is the official time keeping device for this Promotion.

4. How to Enter
During the Promotion Period, go to www.raffstar.com, fill out the online register form completely by providing your name, email address, the zip code where you live, date of birth, and gender you will also be asked to create a screen name and password and submit the form.  Once you have submitted the form, you will be directed to a web page where you click on “enter/get ticket.”  By clicking on “enter/get ticket” you have entered the sweepstakes... Limit: Limit one entry per person every one (1) hour during the Promotion Period. Any attempt by any participant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that participant’s plays and that participant may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible or misdirected registrations, which will be disqualified. All entries become the sole and exclusive property of Sponsor and will not be returned. Sponsor reserves the right to contact entrants and all other individuals whose email address is submitted as part of this promotion.

5. Winner Selection:
On or about ticket number 50000, Sponsor or an independent judging agency will select entries for the prize described below in Section 8 in a random drawing of all valid entries received. The entrant will be contacted using the email address provided with the entry and may be awarded the prize (subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these rules.) Sponsor’s decisions as to the administration and operation of the Promotion and the selection of potential winners are final and binding in all matters related to the Promotion.

The potential winner will be notified by email, after the date of random drawing. The potential winner must assert his/her claim to the prize by responding to the email from the Sponsor indicating he/she is the winner within one (1) hour after receiving the email notification.  If the potential winner does not claim the prize within one (1) hour, another potential winner will be selected and will be notified that he/she is the potential winner.  Until a potential winner asserts his/her claim to the prize within one (1) hour of being notified that he/she is the potential winner, the Sponsor will continue to randomly select potential winners as described in Section 5 above.  After a potential winner asserts his/her claim to the prize, potential winners have to submit official name and shipping information.  Potential winner of total prize values at $600 or more (or if you are a minor in your jurisdiction of residence, your parent/legal guardian) will be required to sign and return to Sponsor, within fifteen (15) days of the date notice is sent, an affidavit of eligibility, and liability/publicity release (except where prohibited) in order to claim his/her prize if applicable. If a potential winner of any prize cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the affidavit of eligibility and liability/publicity release within the required time period (if applicable), or if the prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, potential winner forfeits prize. In the event that a potential winner of a sweepstakes prize is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor may award the applicable prize to an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Any prize won by a participant who is deemed a minor in his/her jurisdiction of residence may be awarded to a parent or legal guardian of such minor on the minor’s behalf.

Regarding the ipod itself, the Shuffle is the cheapest since it has no screen, other ipods could be given, but it will take longer to get the needed number of ads viewed, unless the number of users increases.

Yes. The prizes attract people. But, the causes are the point. And to see people complaining that the prizes aren't good enough kind of makes me think that some people don't care about the causes. You should be sharing links to every cause on twitter, or facebook, or where you blog on a regular basis.

@damianmann Obviously, you do not pay attention to izual1 in ALL comment sections. If you did, then you would know that he informed me on the month of prostate cancer awareness. Be wary, those that you point fingers at are probably the ones that do the most charity work. (And I don't mean opening up your wallet.)

Based on the first page of Google, you have a facebook, twitter, and linkedin account, you live in Las Vegas, you like Jimmy Kimmel, you quote people like Carlin and Thompson, you also live in Oregon, you seem to like digital art, you recently listened to a Michael Jackson song at last.fm, you like Bill Clinton AND Bill Maher, you know a lot about Computer Mediated Communication, oh, and you may or may not also live in Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania. ok, I'm about Google'd out. =)

I love anything that helps these charities out. I would accept a free dirty sock if that's what was offered. I do understand the importance of getting these numbers up as well. I'm trying to tell everyone I know you come in and click the button as much as they want. My job may be on the line soon if I don't stop clicking the buttons.
