A description of the giveaway prize – $500 Cash
How the winner is chosen – Four entries will be shortlisted by convenors. The winner will be decided by a public vote via Facebook, Instagram & TikTok. The votes will be calculated by adding up all the votes across the 3 platforms. The 4 finalists will be assigned an emoji for people to select to indicate which video they have voted for. Just a comment- Are we sure entrant will understand this… my initial inclination was just that people would just use a thumbs-up emoji.. wondering if Matt has used this system elsewhere and whether it worked?
Prize Collection – Via Bank Transfer or Cash from Times News Group
