- Voters must vote on all matchups in each round. One ballot per person per round.
- Voting can be done once per 24 hours, per device/browser.
- No automated voting or robo voting of any kind. (The software has protections against this, but it's a fun contest, let's not ruin the spirit of the tournament)
- Social media sharing, creative ideas to help your pizzeria win is highly encouraged!
- Pizzerias who decide to do giveaways will receive shares from the NEPA Pizza Review facebook page, but NEPA Pizza Review will not decide the winner or participate in the prize in any way. This is to connect you and your customers!
- TIE BREAKER - If a tie occurs in a particular round, the tie breaker will be determined by assigning a randomly drawn tie break value number from 1-64 to each contestant. From the Votion Software: The Tie Break value allows one competitor to be scored higher in case of a tie score in a matchup. A lower value here gives the competitor the advantage. It acts like a virtual seed value.
- Tie breaker values will be drawn randomly from a hat, and that drawing will be recorded for transparency purposes.
