Once you have an Account, during the Entry Period you must: (i) be present during the Twitter Chat, (ii) participate in the Twitter Chat by posting an original post or “Tweet” (retweets don’t count as entries) during the Twitter Chat that is an “Appropriate Response” (defined below) to a Twitter Chat question posted by @RookieMoms, and (iii) use the hashtag, #LuvsClubParty in your “Tweet”. Successful completion of these steps by an eligible entrant shall result in an “Entry.” Six (6) winners will be selected at random from those eligible entrants that submit an eligible Entry during the Entry Period. In addition, eligible entrants may follow @RookieMoms on Twitter so that Administrator can direct message you in the event that you are selected as the potential winner but this is not required (and you may unfollow @RookieMoms once the promotion and prize notification period has ended). There is no cost to view the post or to leave a comment. Your Tweet on the Site will count as one (1) Entry.

In the event of a dispute as to the identity of the winner, such winner will be deemed to be the person whose name appears on the Twitter account associated with the above-described Twitter address at the time of Entry.
For purposes of this Sweepstakes, only Entries that are recorded by Administrator through Twitter’s servers will be considered. Note: Administrator may not receive Entries from Twitter users with “protected” updates (i.e. user has set the Account so that only people the user has approved can view updates) due to the way Twitter operates its services.
Sponsor is not responsible for any changes or unavailability of the Twitter service that may interfere with the Sweepstakes or ability of entrant to timely enter, receive notices or communicate with Sponsor via Twitter, in which case Sponsor, in its sole discretion may terminate or modify the Sweepstakes.

Entries/”Tweets” that are lost, late, misdirected, illegible, incomplete, unreadable, damaged, destroyed, delayed, tampered with, incomprehensible, forged, mutilated, stolen, misdirected, inaccurate, unintelligible or otherwise not in compliance with these Official Rules will be disqualified. All Entries generated by a script, macro or other automated/repetitive electronic means will be disqualified and ineligible for the Sweepstakes.
Winner Selection:Â On or about 10/29/2015, six (6) potential winners will be selected in a random drawing by Administrator from among all eligible Entries received throughout the Entry Period. The random drawing will be conducted by Administrator or its designated representatives, whose decisions are final. Odds of winning will vary depending on the number of eligible Entries received. Site will encourage entrants to include “@reply” for ease of tracking Entries. Winner will be notified by publicly viewable tweet, containing the Twitter handles of the potential winners, within 48 hours of the random drawing (the “Winner Notification”). Potential winner must follow directions specified by Administrator in the Winner Notification within 48 hours of the date/time the Winner Notification is sent in order to verify eligibility and provide address to which Prize will be sent if eligibility is verified. If potential winner fails to respond to the Winner Notification as directed within time frame specified, or if a Winner Notification is returned as undeliverable, such potential winner may be disqualified and prize forfeited. Sponsor shall have no liability for any Winner Notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential winner for any reason. In Sponsor’s sole discretion, a selected winner may be disqualified and required to forfeit his/her prize(s) and an alternate winner may be selected in accordance with these Official Rules from among the remaining eligible Entries if the selected winner: (i) is unreachable as described above or if Winner Notification or Prize is returned as undeliverable; (ii) declines or cannot accept, receive or use the prize for any reason; or (iii) fails to comply with these Official Rules.
