[JC1]This is not a sweepstakes since winners are being judged and not selected at random. We should refer to it as a “CONTEST.”
[JC2]There are a LOT of steps to enter. Though not legally required, reducing the number of steps may increase the number of valid entries.
[JC3]This is duplicative and could create confusion.
