WINNING A GAME

answer at least 6 questions correctly
Answer a question incorrectly, the game ends but you can
immediately play again!
In the shootouts you must answer all 6 questions correctly to be
considered for a
prize. In the hot streak games any number of correct answers is
eligible for a
prize. In shootouts and hot streaks when two or more players have
answered the
same number of questions, the one answering in the fastest time
will win the prize.
ELIGIBILITY RULES
All TryTrivia games are available to anyone
18 years of age or older, residing in the U.S.
The speed of a player's Internet connection will not be a factor
in determining the winner.
Dial-up and high speed connections have equal chance to win.
A day runs from 12:00 AM to 11:45 PM (ET).
LIMITS ON WINNERS
In order to give the most number of players a
chance to win prize money on TryTrivia
we are installing the following limits:
A player is limited to $100 in winnings for each 30 day period
Each day a player will only collect the highest single prize won on
that particular day.
Example: A player comes in
second in a shootout and wins $2.00.
The same player then on the
same day wins a Fast 5 game for $5.00.
In this case $5.00 is credited
to the player's account. All the other
shootout players will move up
one place in the leader board. This might
result in a higher prize to
the player moving up.
All scores posted during a current game day are not final. Final
results for a game
will be posted the following day. Since a player is only allowed to
keep the highest
prize won during a single day, there is a chance a player may
receive a higher prize
than originally indicated. E-mail notification of winners and the
amount of the prize
will be made the day after the game is actually played.
IF A PLAYER LEAVES TRYTRIVIA DURING A GAME
Any time a player happens to click on any link while playing a game,
then that game will be over and not be counted. Once an actual game is started
it must be completed. A player can return to any non-game page by either clicking
the "Back" button or by clicking on a link to TryTrivia.com
if a player does not return within 20 minutes, they will have to log in again.
In shootouts, clicking to leave the game causes that specific game to be cancelled.
