In that event, they would forfeit their entry (and their entry fee) and the first place prize would go to the second place winner, second place would be awarded to the third place winner and we’d choose another third place winner. By rights, the contestant in question ought to notify us of a contract offer when it happens (rather than waiting until they are notified) and withdraw their entry — although, under those circumstances, they would still forfeit the $25 entry fee. Return to list I would like to know if it is possible to send my entry by email and send the entry fee by mail, because I live in [name your place] and my entry would not arrive in time for the deadline if I do not email it. We don’t accept entries by email for the initial stage of the contest but that needn’t worry you. As long as the entry is postmarked by April 30th, we’ll still accept it — even if we don’t actually receive it until mid-May.
