I think this is a great idea for a giveaway because it encourages play! Clever one PD team.
I have two questions. First, I read upthread that the bet has to win, is this correct, so it is not a risk free bet, it is like a bonus bet?
Yeah, the bet has to win.
Not exactly a risk-free bet, but it almost is. Just depends on how you see it - If you win a bet and lose a bet, you will get the same profit as if it were a risk-free bet. The difference is that the profit is doubled instead of the loss being covered, which essentially has the same effect.
Second, for the eligibility do you have to have BOTH .25 wagered and 50 activity or is it enough to have only ONE of those two things. I ask because lots of newbie accounts are claiming or "reserving" a spot and they wont make it if both of those need to be satisfied! (and they certainly wont make 100 activity)
Finally, I'll RESERVE this spot in case I make it!
Thanks for a great site and giveaway!
Currently, both the restrictions apply.
You need to have both the 50 activity and 0.25 BTC wagered or 100 activity and 10k rolls.
We have received suggestions for removing the 50 activity restriction. If it gets approved, the entries would be taken as valid, otherwise we only make the changes on future contests.
Thanks and good luck
