A MILLION TO ONE TRIVIA CONTEST

Updated: Sep 13

OFFICIAL RULES


NO PURCHASE OR PAYMENT OF ANY KIND IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE OR PAYMENT WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. PARTICIPATION IN THE PROMOTION REQUIRES ACCEPTANCE OF THESE OFFICIAL RULES, WHICH INCLUDE A CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE OFFICIAL RULES, YOU MUST NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE CONTEST.


Void where prohibited by law and outside the United States. Subject to all federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and ordinances.


1. Eligibility. The A Million to One Trivia Contest (“Promotion”) is open to legal U.S. residents currently residing in one of 50 United States or the District of Columbia who are 18 years old or older as of the date of participation. Employees, officers, and directors of Amazon Advertising LLC (“Sponsor”), its respective parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, representatives, consultants, contractors, legal counsel, advertising, public relations, promotional, fulfillment, and marketing agencies (collectively, the “Promotion Entities”) and members of their immediate families (spouses, parents, siblings and children, regardless of where they live) and those living in the same household are not eligible to enter or win. Participation in the Promotion constitutes entrant’s full and unconditional agreement to these Official Rules and to Sponsor’s decisions, which are final and binding in all matters related to the Promotion. Winning a prize is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements, as set forth herein. Sponsor reserves the right to verify the eligibility of winners.


2. Sponsor. Amazon Advertising LLC., 410 Terry Avenue, Seattle, WA 98109.


3. Promotion Period; Description. The Promotion shall consist of a series of seven (7) separate contests (each, a “Contest”). Each Contest will have its own participation period (each, a “Contest Participation Period”), its own set of winners (each, a “Contest Winner”), and its own pool of prizes(each, a “Prize”). Promotion begins on September 16, 2025 at approximately 7:00pm Pacific Time (“PT”) and ends on September 22, 2025 at approximately 7:30pm PT (“Promotion Period”). Sponsor’s computer is the official time keeping device for this Promotion.


Each Contest Participation Period will begin at 7pm PT each evening during the Promotion Period and will end once all Questions (defined below) have been asked and participants have been provided the allotted time to answer. Each Contest will be livestreamed at Twitch.tv/PointCrow (“Livestream”).

4. How to Participate. Contest participation requires (i) access to the internet; (ii) a valid Twitch account; and (iii) activation of the free “Million to One” Twitch extension (“Extension”) (available here). It is free to sign up for Twitch, and those who do not yet have a Twitch account may create one here.


At the start of each Contest Participation Period, you must log into your Twitch account (make sure you have the Extension installed (if you are a channel) or the Extension activated (if you are a Participant)) and watch the Livestream in one of four ways: (1) on a participating Partner channel; (2) on a participating Affiliate channel; (3) on the Main channel (https://www.twitch.tv/pointcrow); or (4) on any other channel that has the Extension installed. Choose carefully, because how an eligible player (“Participant”) views the Livestream will determine (a) how their score is tabulated; (b) whether they compete as an individual or as an individual and as a member of a Partner or Affiliate “Team” and (c) the Prizes they will be eligible to win. Once the Contest Participation Period begins, Participants will be ‘locked in’ and will not be able to change Teams.


Partner Teams. Participants who watch the Livestream on a Partner channel will compete in two ways: (1) as a Team (Partner streamer + all Participants in Partner channel) against other participating Partner Teams and (2) as an individual (each, an “Underdog”).


Affiliate Teams. Participants who watch the Livestream on an Affiliate channel will compete in two ways: (1) as a Team (Affiliate streamer + all Participants in Affiliate channel) against other participating Affiliate Teams and (2) as an Underdog.


Main or Other Channel. Participants who watch the Livestream on the Main Channel or any other channel that is not a Partner or Affiliate will compete only as an Underdog.


5. Scoring. Scoring varies depending on whether a Participant is competing as a Team or an Underdog. During each Contest Participation Period, Participants will be given the opportunity to answer a series of trivia questions (each, a “Question”) during each “Round” of play. Each Question will have (i) a point value and (ii) a designated time period during which an answer may be provided. The point value, time to answer each Question, and number of Questions per Round will be determined at Sponsor’s sole discretion prior to the start of each Contest Participation Period and may vary by Question and/or Contest. Sponsor, in its sole discretion, will also determine what qualifies as a correct answer to each Question.


Point values for each Question will be calculated as follows: base x multiplier, where the base is determined by the Sponsor in advance, and the multiplier equals the number of seconds provided to answer the Question. To add some fun, the multiplier will drop every 5 seconds. So, the faster a Participant correctly answers the Question, the more points that Participant (or Team) can earn.



Points per correct answer: question_point_value × time_multiplier. Time multiplier starts at the question's total time in seconds and decreases by 5 every 5 seconds (minimum 1). Points are awarded only for correct selections. Applies only to server-scored participants (Partner/Affiliate/Underdog). Client-only answers are not transmitted or scored.


An example of how points are calculated is below using a base of 10 and a multiplier of 30.

For Partner/Affiliate Teams:

A Team’s score will then be calculated as follows: 50% Partner or Affiliate streamer’s score + 50% average score of top 20 Participants on the Team (or all, if fewer than 20 Participants). Team scores will be revealed after each Round and tracked on the leaderboard, which will be visible on the Livestream.


Team scoring (per Round): 50% broadcaster component + 50% normalized top viewers component. Broadcaster component: Sum of the broadcaster's points across all questions in that Round. Top viewers component: Take the top 20 viewers on the team for that Round by total points (use all if fewer than 20), sum their points, then divide by 20 (missing slots count as zeros). Team Round score is rounded to the nearest whole number.


Leaderboards: After each Round, Partner and Affiliate leaderboards display each Team's cumulative total (sum of Team Round scores across all completed Rounds).


For Underdogs:

Participants competing as Underdogs will have individual scores calculated based on that Participant’s total points awarded during the Contest Participation Period. Unlike Team scores, Underdog scores will not be revealed until the end of the Contest. Scores are the sum across all questions in all Rounds; standings are revealed at the end of the Contest. Client-only players are excluded.


6. Elimination. After each Round, only the top 90% of Partner and Affiliate Teams will advance; other Teams will be eliminated. When a Team is eliminated, a notification will appear/be visible in the Extension.

Important: even if a Team is eliminated, Participants can (and should) continue to play in the channel as an Underdog.


7. Selection of Winners; Prizes. At the end of each Contest Participation Period, scores will be tabulated by Sponsor, and Potential Winners will be determined based on each Participant’s and Team’s cumulative score during the Contest. Each Contest will have a total of twenty-four (24) Participant Winners and two (2) Team Winners, determined by Sponsor as follows:


Partner and Affiliate Teams: The one (1) Partner Team and one (1) Affiliate Team with the highest overall score at the end of the Contest Participation Period will be deemed a “Winning Team.” Up to one hundred (100) individual Participants on each Winning Team will be given a gifted subscription to the Winning Team channel (ARV: $6), which will be awarded randomly by Sponsor.


Participant Winners: The eight (8) individual Participants on each Winning Team and the eight (8) Underdogs with the highest individual overall scores throughout the Contest Participation Period, as tabulated by Sponsor, will each be deemed a Winner and will receive a Prize as follows:

ALL WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR WHOSE DECISIONS IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE CONTEST ARE FINAL AND BINDING. A PARTICIPANT IS NOT A WINNER OF ANY PRIZE UNLESS AND UNTIL SUCH PARTICIPANT’S ELIGIBILITY HAS BEEN VERIFIED AND PARTICIPANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THAT VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE.


Winners will be notified of their winning status via Twitch Whisper, and will need to respond within the time period provided in the notification. Failure to respond to the attempted notification or to comply with any other provision herein, may result in the Winner being disqualified, at Sponsor’s sole discretion, and Sponsor may award the applicable Prize to the Participant with the next highest score.


In the event of a tie between/among Participants, the Participant who answered the most Questions correctly will be deemed the Winner. In the event of a further tie, the Participant who answered Questions correctly in the fastest time will be deemed the Winner.


8. Prize Restrictions. All applicable federal, state, and local tax liabilities, fees, and expenses related to acceptance and use of Prize not specifically stated herein, shall be the sole responsibility of Prize Winner. Prizes cannot be substituted, assigned, transferred, or redeemed for cash; however, Sponsor reserves the right to make equivalent Prize substitutions, at its sole discretion.


Prizes may be delivered by U.S. Mail or other delivery service, including email, depending on the Prize, at Sponsor’s sole discretion. If a Prize is returned as undeliverable or is unable to be awarded for any reason, the applicable Prize will be forfeited. Sponsor will not replace any lost or stolen Prizes or components thereof. Awarding of a Prize is subject to the Prize Winner’s acceptance of all requisite conditions within these Official Rules and Winner’s ability and agreement to grant the rights set forth in these Official Rules and execute the required documentation (if any is required). By accepting a Prize, the Winner acknowledges and affirms compliance with these Official Rules.


9. General. Participation is limited to one Twitch account per Participant/per Contest/Contest Participation Period. Any attempt by an individual to use multiple accounts to participant may result in disqualification. By competing in a Contest, Participant agrees to be contacted by Sponsor or Sponsor’s designees by Twitch Whisper, direct message, or email to the email address associated with a Participant’s Twitch account.


Automated participation in the Contest or participation by third parties will result in disqualification, at Sponsor’s discretion. Multiple Participants are not permitted to share the same email address or Twitch account. In the event of a dispute as to the identity of a Participant, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register the Twitch account will be determinative. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider, or

other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. If there is no email address associated with the Twitch account, then the authorized account holder of the phone number used to register it will be determinative. Sponsor may, at its discretion, require a Potential Winner to show proof of being the authorized account holder. Failure to do so may result in forfeiture of Prize.


Question responses, comments, and/or any content submitted or uploaded to Twitch or other public sites in connection with each Contest (collectively, “Submissions”) may not contain, depict or show any content that: (i) is sexually explicit or suggestive, offensive, lewd, profane, obscene; (ii) promotes any activities that may appear unsafe or dangerous, or any political agenda or message; (iii) defames, misrepresents or contains disparaging remarks about the Promotion Entities; (iv) contains any personal identification, such

as license plate numbers, last names (first names are permitted), e-mail addresses or street addresses for any person other than entrant, or otherwise infringes on the privacy of any person other than an entrant; (v) communicates messages or images inconsistent with the positive image and good will of the Promotion Entities’ brands; and/or (vii) violates any law. Any Submissions that contain such content will be disqualified. Sponsor reserves the right in its sole and unfettered discretion to disqualify any Submission that it believes is inappropriate, that does not comply with these Official Rules, or that is not consistent with the spirit or theme of the Promotion.


10. Publicity. Except where prohibited by law, participation in the Promotion and acceptance of a Prize constitutes Prize Winner’s grant to Promotion Entities (which grant will be confirmed in writing on request of Sponsor) and their designees the right and permission to use Prize Winner’s name, likeness, biography, statements, voice, image and any other personal characteristics, in any and all media now or hereafter known, for any purpose, including without limitation, marketing, promotional, and publicity purposes without additional consideration, compensation, permission, or notification to such Prize Winner, and such individual hereby releases the Promotion Entities and their designees from any liability with respect to such use.


11. General Conditions. This Contest is governed by the laws of the United States. Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.

In such event, Sponsor reserves the right to (a) cancel or terminate the Promotion (or any portion thereof); (b) modify or suspend the Promotion to address the impairment and then resume the Promotion in a manner that best conforms to the spirit of these Official Rules; and/or (c) modify the Prizes and/or award the Prize(s) at random from among the eligible, non-suspect entries received up to the time of the impairment.


12. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution; Limitation of Liability; Releases. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Official Rules, or the rights and obligations of the entrant, and Promotion Entities in connection with the Contest, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Washington, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of Washington or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Washington.
