These are the rules for the SplashSports x Polymarket x PredictQ Survivor Freeroll. Enter and you're agreeing to them. If you want the plain-English version of how the contest works and how to play it, that's in the announcement article.
1. Who runs it
PredictQ administers the Contest. Splash Sports provides and pays out every prize. We never hold, deposit or distribute prize money at any point.
Polymarket is the required trading venue. Polymarket does not administer the Contest.
2. When it runs
Seven straight days.
Day 1: Thursday, September 3, 2026. Trades due by 7:00 PM ET.
Day 7: Wednesday, September 9, 2026. Trades due by 7:00 PM ET.
Final results: the morning of Thursday, September 10, 2026.
Every time listed is US Eastern. The 7:00 PM deadline is hard. A trade posted at 7:00:01 does not count.
3. Who can enter
You need all five of these.
You're 18 or older, or whatever the minimum age is to hold a Polymarket account where you live, whichever is higher.
You have a registered PredictQ account.
You're in the PredictQ Discord.
You have a Polymarket account in good standing.
You live somewhere the grand prize can legally be delivered. The eligible states are below.
Nobody who works for us can play. That covers employees, contractors and immediate family of PredictQ, Splash Sports, Polymarket, or any prediction market platform.
Win it and find you can't legally accept it, and the prize moves to the next eligible entrant in the standings.
4. How to enter
No entry fee. Nothing to buy from us.
Post your Day 1 trade in the #Splash-Sports-Contest channel in the PredictQ Discord before 7:00 PM ET on September 3. That post is your entry.
5. What you owe us every day
One trade, posted in #Splash-Sports-Contest before 7:00 PM ET, every day from Day 1 through Day 7.
Each post needs three things:
A screenshot of the placed position showing the market, the side you took, the price and the size.
The Polymarket market name or a link to it.
The username you entered under, and it has to match across all seven days.
And the trade itself has to be:
Placed on Polymarket. Any other venue and it doesn't count.
A $10 position. Not $9.80, not $12.
Placed on the day you're submitting it for, after the previous day's deadline.
One position in one market. No splitting the stake across two markets, no hedging both sides.
On a sports game or match. Politics, crypto, entertainment and everything else are out for this contest.
On a game or match that starts at 7:00 PM ET or later that evening. If it has already kicked off, tipped off, first-pitched or started play by the deadline, it does not count.
Must resolve by 7:00 AM EST at the latest, the following day, or it counts as an elimination from the survivor pool
Post twice in a day and your first post is the one that counts. - Deleting or editing a submission voids that day’s entry and eliminates you, whether you do it before or after the deadline. Post it once and leave it alone.
6. How you advance or go out
We score every submitted trade after each daily deadline.
Your side resolved YES and you advance. Resolved NO and you're out. Hasn't resolved at all when we score it, and you're out.
"Unsettled" counts as a loss and we won't be waiving it. Picking markets that resolve inside the scoring window is your job.
Postponed is not the same as unsettled. If your game is postponed, suspended before it finishes, or Polymarket voids and refunds the market, you advance to the next day with $0 profit recorded. Weather is not going to knock you out of this contest.
You're also out if you post nothing by the deadline, or if your trade doesn't meet the requirements in Section 5.
Scoring happens the morning after each day. Leaderboards go up in #Splash-Sports-Contest.
7. How the winner is decided
Anyone who's advanced through all seven days is a Survivor.
Survivors get ranked by total net profit across all seven days. That's the sum of (payout received minus $10 staked) for each of the seven winning trades, measured from the price in your submitted screenshot.
Highest total net profit wins the grand prize. Every other Survivor splits the runner-up pool.
Ties: identical net profit down to the cent goes to whoever submitted their Day 1 trade earliest.
If nobody survives all seven days, the entrants who lasted the most days become the prize group. Cumulative net profit across the days they completed decides it, and the highest one in that group takes the grand prize. Everyone else eliminated on that same day is a runner-up and shares the runner-up pool.
8. The prizes
Grand prize: one entry, valued at $1,000, into the Splash Sports x Polymarket $21,000,000 Guaranteed NFL Survivor contest. It's awarded as a contest entry. No cash alternative and it isn't transferable.
Runner-up prizes: $1,000 total in Splash Sports site credit, split evenly among all Survivors who finish seven days without taking the grand prize. If nobody survives seven days, it splits evenly among the deepest-day group from Section 7, minus the grand prize winner. Where an even split doesn't work cleanly, Splash rounds to the nearest cent and the remainder goes to the highest-ranked runner-up.
Splash Sports deposits every prize and emails winners directly. You'll need to complete whatever verification Splash requires, identity checks included, before anything is issued. Their terms and eligibility rules apply on top of ours.
The grand prize winner has to claim and complete Splash Sports registration before their registration deadline of September 13, 2026. Miss it and you forfeit the entry, and it passes to the next eligible Survivor.
Any taxes on what you win are yours.

9. Verification and disputes
We can ask for more proof of any trade: screen sharing, transaction hashes, wallet addresses. Don't produce it within 24 hours of being asked and you're eliminated.
Falsified screenshots, backdated posts, multiple accounts, or coordinated entries built to game the standings all mean immediate disqualification and forfeiture of any prize.
One entry per person. Multiple Discord accounts, multiple Polymarket wallets or multiple PredictQ accounts run by the same person count as one entry, and we'll disqualify all of them if we catch it.
Disputes go in #Splash-Sports-Contest within 12 hours of the leaderboard post containing the result you're disputing. Our decision on scoring is final.
10. What you're risking
This contest has you placing real trades with your own money on Polymarket. That money is at risk. Prediction markets are volatile and most retail traders lose. We don't give financial advice, we don't guarantee outcomes, and we aren't responsible for losses you take while playing.
Nothing in this contest, on the leaderboards or in the Discord is a recommendation to make any particular trade.
11. If we have to change or cancel it
We can modify, suspend or cancel the Contest if it can't be run as designed. Technical failure, a change in a partner's terms, a regulatory development. Cancel it mid-run and we'll say so publicly in the Discord and explain how prizes get handled.
12. Your data
Entering means we can publish your Discord username, your trades and your results on leaderboards, on the site and on social. We don't publish wallet addresses. Want an alias shown instead, message a moderator before Day 1.
13. Affiliate disclosure
PredictQ has an affiliate relationship with Polymarket and gets paid when people sign up through our links, including the link and promo code used for this Contest. It costs you nothing extra and it has no bearing on how the Contest is scored.
