5. How to Enter the Promotion: You will need an eDecoder to play the eDecoder Game. eDecoders will be distributed at community events or you can obtain an online virtual eDecoder when you register for the Promotion. During the Promotion Period, go to http://www.NationalCity.com/win and follow the directions for entry. Fill out the registration form completely and submit the form. If you have an eDecoder, check the "I have an eDecoder" box. Once you submit the form, you will automatically receive one (1) entry into the Grand Prize Drawing and one (1) eDecoder Game play. You will automatically advance to the eDecoder Game Page. To play the eDecoder Game:
a. If you have an eDecoder and checked the "I have an eDecoder" box on the registration page, place your eDecoder over the scrambled message displayed on your computer monitor to reveal the hidden image; or
b. If you did not check the "I have an eDecoder" box on the registration page, use your mouse to drag the online eDecoder over the scrambled message to reveal the hidden image. The eDecoder Game results will be instantly displayed. Entrants will be notified immediately by email if they are potential winners of the eDecoder Game and will be provided directions for validation. All potential winners are subject to verification before any prize will be awarded. Administrator is responsible for the functionality of the eDecoder Game. Limit: Each participant may enter/play one (1) time per day during the Promotion Period. Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same email address. Any attempt by any participant to obtain more than the stated number of plays/entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that participant's plays/entries and that participant may be disqualified. All entries must be received during the Promotion Period. Use of any automated system to submit entries is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any online entry, the authorized account holder of the email address used to enter will be deemed to be the entrant. The "authorized account holder" is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Potential winners may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder.
6. ALL POTENTIAL WINNING PLAYS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR OR ADMINISTRATOR, WHOSE DECISIONS ARE FINAL. AN ENTRANT IS NOT A WINNER OF ANY PRIZE, EVEN IF THE EDECODER GAME SHOULD SO INDICATE, UNLESS AND UNTIL ENTRANT'S ELIGIBILITY AND THE POTENTIAL WINNING PLAY HAS BEEN VERIFIED AND ENTRANT HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THAT VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE. SPONSOR WILL NOT ACCEPT SCREEN SHOTS OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF WINNING IN LIEU OF ITS VALIDATION PROCESS. ANY PLAY THAT OCCURS AFTER THE SYSTEM HAS FAILED FOR ANY REASON IS DEEMED A DEFECTIVE PLAY AND IS VOID AND WILL NOT BE HONORED.
7. Grand Prize Drawing/eDecoder Game: All selected winners must comply with all terms and conditions of these Official Rules and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. Administrator is an independent judging organization whose decisions as to the administration and operation of the Promotion and the selection of potential winners are final.

Except where prohibited, the winner of the Grand Prize Drawing must sign (or have his/her parent/legal guardian sign if winner is a minor in his/her state of residence) and return, within ten (10) days of being notified, an affidavit of eligibility and liability/publicity release in order to claim his/her prize. eDecoder Game: One Thousand (1,000) random, computer-generated winning times, one (1) for each of the eDecoder Game prizes listed in paragraph 8 below will be created. If you are the first player to play the eDecoder Game at or after any one (1) of the randomly generated times you will be a potential instant winner. For all prizes: If a potential winner of any prize cannot be contacted, or fails to sign and return the affidavit of eligibility and liability/publicity release within the required time period (if applicable), potential winner forfeits prize. In the event that any potential winner is disqualified for any reason, an alternate winner will be selected in his/her place in a random drawing from among all eligible entries received. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held after which the prize will remain unawarded. Grand Prize will be received 8-10 weeks after winner confirmation. eDecoder Game prizes will be received 8-10 weeks after the conclusion of the Promotion.
