[Ninnygunk]

I tried.....kept saying there was an error! I just figured everyone is trying to do it. I'll have to try again tomorrow. Fingers crossed!!!

 

[junebugTN]

I kept trying, but the site was throwing an error back at me. So I thought I'd go price out a vacation and now http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/ is down. Sheesh....I hope this isn't a sign of how my Disney relationship is going to go in 2012.

Good luck with the sweepstakes....it would be great for a fellow DIS reader to win!

I enter every Disney vacation contest out there. Yes, I've entered. Heads up -- ABC and Disney websites do not work well in Chrome for entering their contests. I have to use Firefox to get entries through. Enter daily here: http://disney.go.com/memories/

I'd love to see a winner from the DIS.

Has anyone read the rules.... This is near the bottom....granting the right to conduct background checks....is this normal now? I understand Disney is saying it doesn't want to have someone on the FBI's most wanted list as a grand prize winner , but still it seems extreme.

That's an easy way for them to cover their butts in case, say, a registered sex offender wins. If the person that wins doesn't jive with their image, they have the right to disqualify that person.

Nevermind.

Does anyone know what the "Grand Sweepstakes" prize is...we couldn't seem to find it in the rules or the website.

Odds of winning each Daily Sweepstakes depend on the total number of eligible Entries received for the applicable Day, except the odds of winning the Grand Sweepstakes shall depend on the total number of eligible Entries received for all Daily sweepstakes except the Entries of the winners. Dates below are each "on or about."

I understand the reason, but what's next, background checks before you can buy a ticket into the parks?

I think it's a smart move. Imagine the headlines: Disney awards prize to convicted child molester and muderer and allows them to sleep on Disney grounds for 4 nights.

You can't control who is sleeping in the hotel room next to you, but it would look really bad for them (and would be a huge liability) if they awarded people with such records a hotel stay and park visit.
