How does the contest work?
Contestants submit their photos and stories beginning 4/15/14 at noon. Viewers can log-in and begin voting for their favorite. Each registered voter will be allowed five (5) votes per day. Contest entries will continue to be accepted until 11:59 p.m. Sunday, May 4, 2014. Votes will be accepted until 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, May 7, 2014.

Please remember ... Per the contest rules:
KSN, KODE, and/or Fourstateshomepage.com reserve the right to restrict the winners to only persons whose primary residence is within the KSN/KODE viewing area (approximately a 50 mile radius of the affiliate's' office).

IP Addresses will be monitored to insure multiple accounts are not being used for voting by the same individual. If multiple user ID's are set-up from the same IP address, those accounts will be blocked and votes will be voided.

Admin votes will be taken into account before the final tally is taken and winners announced.

Can I still play if the contest has already started? Yes. As long is it is prior to the deadlines mentioned above.
