Contest #2 (Play and Win) is a lot more challenging, but you get to win bigger prizes. The prize for Week 1 would be a USD 25 iTunes Gift Card, Week 2 would be a iPod Shuffle 2GB, Week 3 an iPod nano 8GB and the winner for Week 4 will get an iPod touch 8GB. How to participate? Players will have to play Pig Shot and submit their scores to OpenFeint. The top scorer in the weekly highscore chart (Week 1 – 3) will win the prizes from Week 1 to 3. Overall top scorer will be announced on Week 4.

Contest #2 Rules:

  • Winners from Week 1 to Week 3 will not qualify subsequent week except for Week 4, even if they lead the highscore chart for 3 consecutive week. E.g: If a player wins something on Week 1, that particular player will not qualify for Week 2 & 3 but the score will still qualify for Overall Contest.
  • If the winner is disqualified or fail to respond 2 week after the initial contact, the next rank will then qualify for the prize.
  • If all 3 placing are disqualified, the prizes will then be snowballed and be added to Week 4’s prize pool (sorted by highest value). E.g: If Week 3’s prize snowball, the #2 Overall Top Scorer will win the iPod Nano.
