Entering the Search for Bourne iPhone drawing without getting all the sightings
August 3rd, 2007
Just a quick note to let readers know that it’s possible to qualify for the Ultimate Search for Bourne iPhone contest without getting enough sightings. The official rules let you enter with a postcard but it must be postmarked by tomorrow, Saturday, 4 Auguist 2007.
Here’s the relevant passage:
Entrant(s) who obtain surveillance points that fall in the range from twenty-five (25) to thirty-two (32) points online during the Sweepstakes Period will automatically receive one (1) entry (“Sightings Internet Entry”) into the Sightings Sweepstakes. To enter the Sightings Sweepstakes by mail without Game play, legibly hand-print your first and last name, complete home address (including street address, city, state/province and zip code/postal code), date of birth, telephone number (including area code), email address and the surveillance code name “Sighting Mission” on a postcard (no larger than 6” x 8”) and mail, with proper postage affixed to: The Ultimate Search for Bourne with Google, P.O. Box 10301, Burbank, CA 91510 (“Sightings Mail Entry”). Each Sightings Mail Entry submitted will receive thirty-two (32) surveillance points (the maximum number of points obtainable by Game play) equaling one (1) Entry into the Sightings Sweepstakes. Online Entries for each Daily Sweepstakes and Grand Prize Drawing must be received by 11:59:50 p.m. EDT during that day’s date; Sightings Internet Entries must be received by 11:59:59 p.m. EDT on August 3, 2007; and Sightings Mail Entries must be postmarked by August 4, 2007 and received by August 10, 2007 (collectively “Entries”).
To everyone: good luck!

Don’t believe this!
You are being mislead, any one with 15 or more sightings wins an IPHONE.
YOU WILL BE NOTIFIED BY YOUR GMAIL ACCOUNT.

You may be right, Matt. The official rules are (as any official rules usually are) a little hard to parse. One thing’s for sure, sending the postcard is as good as getting the maximum number of points. The question is, do these “points” equal sightings? Looks like the don’t, like you get points more rapidly, but I’m not 100% sure.
So I sent the postcard.
