Any follower who re-tweets Maxim’s initial tweet (including the hash code “#MaximImmortals” and the link to these official rules), will be automatically entered into the Sweepstakes. Followers must re-tweet the entire original Maxim tweet in order for their entry to be valid, including any URLs embedded in the tweet. Entries must be received by 11:59:59 PM Eastern Time on November 21, 2011 to be eligible. All re-tweets made after the end of the Sweepstakes Period, and re-tweets without the entire original Maxim tweet (including the hash code and URL link) will be deemed void. No Purchase Required.

PRIZE(S); ODDS OF WINNING. One (1) Grand Prize winner will be awarded the following: one (1) Xbox 360 game console, and one (1) copy of UFC Personal Trainer (total approximate retail value: $250.00). Prizes may not be combined with any other offer. Winners will be responsible for all applicable taxes, fees, and/or any other expenses associated with acceptance and/or taking delivery of the prizes. Prizes are not redeemable for cash, and no substitution, assignment or transfer of any prize will be permitted, except that AMG reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to substitute any prize with either the cash value of the prize that would have been awarded, or a prize of equal or greater value. Odds of winning are determined by and depend upon the total number of eligible re-tweets received. A purchase will not improve your chances of winning.
WINNER SELECTION. AMG will make a random drawing of all re-tweets sent by Maxim followers that contain the original tweet, including the URL link. Winners will be chosen by random drawing on or about November 22, 2011 by AMG from among the total number of eligible re-tweets received.

The potential winners will be notified on or about November 22, 2011 by a direct message from Maxim on Twitter requesting email information in order to officially notify the potential winner. The potential winner will then be notified by electronic mail on or about November 25, 2011. If the initially selected winner is ineligible, cannot be contacted after two (2) attempts by AMG, or fails to complete and return any required documents to AMG within five (5) days of receipt of the documents, the prize will be forfeited and an alternate winner will be selected from all eligible entries. Each potential prize winner will be required to sign and return a notarized Affidavit of Eligibility/Compliance (including his/her Social Security Number if required for tax reporting purposes) and a Liability/Publicity Release, as allowed by law, within five (5) days of receipt of the documents or his/her prize will be forfeited, and an alternate potential prize winner will be selected at random from the remaining eligible entries.
