    You can get a US passport in as little as a few weeks, if you pay extra fees, for the rush service.

    Very true - Got mine next day when going in person to the office directly. Even through the normal rush process, it can happen in two weeks easily.

    So what if the leaders don't make the deposit or have a passport will the first place that meets the requirements get it regardless or will it just be void? What if the best guy who deposits and has a passport is in like 10th place or something also who do we contact to inform the deposit has been made

    You can send me a PM to confirm the deposit was made and I'll mark it down.

    The Grand Prize package will go to the best finisher among those that were Grand Prize eligible. The overall leader of the contest at the conclusion of the contest, assuming not GP eligible, will just have won that final week's $200 prize.

    What does it matter. I can drive to Pittsburgh, buffalo, Detroit, Cleveland in under 5 hours. I'll fly from the US if that's a problem.

    You can do same day US passports if you go to one of the regional centers. It's more expensive, $187 last time I had to, but well worth it if you need one on short notice.

    It says a US Passport but I assume us Canadians are welcome too. Just because we are smarter and better looking no reason to prejudice against us.

    sounds like a cool and different contest idea... Does everyone get the freeplay (or just new customers)? I currently have a regular balance and freeplay balance from a first deposit a few months back which I was waiting for football season to use...

    The freeplay is a perk for depositing along with the Grand Prize eligibility, it is available for anyone who joins this contest and posts up $100 or more.

    I already have around $2000 at Phoeix. Do I need to deposit another hundred to be eligible for the grand prize?

    Yes sir, the Grand Prize eligibility requires the $100 post-up specifically for this contest.

    They are going to work you like a dog "helping them out", from serving coffee, to doing their taxes, to moping the floor.

    I decided not to deposit the money, because there weren't details about the grand prize.

    I've added the following tiebreaker terms for this contest, I've updated the original post and the contest side-bar rules tab:

    TIEBREAKER for weekly & grand prize winner:

    Weekly
    1.) # of wins. If one is 5-1 and one is 4-2 and happen to be same units, 5-1 guy gets paid.
    2.) Action points on Best Bet. How many point did your Best Bet beat the spread by?
    3.) If still tied after #2, the winner will be those whose six weekly games had the most positive action points.

    Grand Prize
    1.) # of wins. If someone is 50-22 and +60 units, and someone is 49-23 +60 units, the 50-22 guy wins contest.
    2.) # of action points won by each of last 12 Best Bets.


    Also remember that you must play 12 full weeks to be eligible to claim Grand Prize..

    Not sure what you mean sir, the original post and the contest side-bar has had Grand Prize details well before the contest started. The only thing added today were details concerning tiebreakers.

    No issue really, both winners who had the same record , units this week were each paid $200 by BetPhoenix; but going forward the tiebreaker rules will ensure only one lucky winner wins each week and the Grand Prize..

    I mean the kind of details you see in those official rules pages.

    When would the flight leave, when would it come back, etc.
