@FissureTV Twitter Contest
To participate in the “@FissureTV Twitter Contest”, participants must have a valid and active Twitter account. Twitter accounts are free and can be registered at www.twitter.com. Each week, participants will be told what message to broadcast related to that week’s webisode on the Twitter account. Each Twitter message broadcasted correctly will be an entry into the Fissure TV contest. Weekly prizes will vary. Participants can broadcast the correct Twitter messages multiple times for multiple entries, but a maximum of 10 tweets/retweets per day will apply towards the contest entries.
