1. Eligibility:
- Must be 21 years of age or older to participate.
- Open to legal U.S. residents within [list coverage area if applicable].
- Employees of 105.5 WNSP or any Sound of Mobile Station, its affiliates, sponsors, and their immediate family members are not eligible to participate.
2. How to Play:
- Each day, a Secret Word will be chosen and kept confidential.
- To win the prize, a caller must say the Secret Word naturally during their on-air call.
- If no one says the word, the prize rolls over to the next day, increasing by $20 per day until won.
- The Secret Word remains the same until someone claims the prize or the max limit is reached.
3. Prize & Payout:
- The starting prize is $20 and increases by $20 per day until someone wins or the maximum cap of $500 is reached.
- Once the cap is reached, a new Secret Word is chosen, and the prize resets to $20.
- Winners may only win once per calendar month. If a caller has already won in a given month, they are ineligible to win again until the next month.
- Winners will be verified and must claim their prize within 30 days.
- Prizes are non-transferable and may be subject to tax obligations.
4. Call Conduct & Spam Prevention:
To keep the contest fair and prevent disruptions, the following caller behavior is strictly prohibited:
- Rapid-firing random words in an attempt to guess the Secret Word.
- Forcing unnatural speech (e.g., listing a bunch of words quickly or speaking in a robotic/meme-like way).
- Over-explaining or obviously fishing for confirmation (e.g., “Is the secret word banana? Or is it apple? Maybe it’s football?”).
- Repeatedly calling in just to guess the word, without contributing to the show in a meaningful way.
🚨 Violations may result in disqualification and caller bans at the station’s discretion.
