entries is reached.
Entrants can enter the competition as many times as they wish until either the maximum
number of entries have been received or any maximum number of entries per Entrant has
been reached. Entrants submitting free entries must submit each entry separately. Bulk
entries, if received, will not be accepted and will only be counted as one single entry.
All Entrants (including those entering for free) must open an account on the Website prior

4. Choosing a Winner
The Promoter may use different methods of choosing the winner, depending on the
format of the competition:
(a) Main draw: All Entrants who correctly answer the Competition Question will be
placed into a draw and the winner will be chosen by random draw. If no
Competition Question is asked, all Entrants will be entered into the random draw.
The random draw will take place as soon as reasonably possible and, in any event,
within 7 days of the Closing Date ("Draw Date");
(b) Instant wins: All Entrants meeting the entry requirements will be randomly
allocated an entry number on completion and payment of their entry. The
Promoter will use a random number generator to select an entry number for any
Entrants entering via the free entry route and meeting the entry requirements. If
the entry number corresponds with the instant win number stated on the
Website, the Entrant will win that prize;
(c) Auto draws: The Promoter may use an auto draw system for choosing the winner
or winners of the Main draw and any Instant wins. For the Main draw, the system
will be set to randomly select a winner from all valid entries as soon as the Closing
Date is reached or all entries have been sold (including allocation of free entries),
whichever is sooner. For Instant wins, the auto draw system will automatically
allocate the relevant prize to a winner if their entry number matches the instant
win number.
All Entrants will have their names and entry numbers included on an entry list which may
be published on the Website and may be visible during the live draw. Names may also be
posted on the website to indicate that an instant win prize has been won. If you do not
wish to have your name included on this spreadsheet or posted on the website, you must
contact the Promoter via email at info@tommyfrenchcompetitions.com, as soon as
reasonably possible after you have completed your entry and in any event, at least 48
