How would we know? Unless they entered with the same email they registered here I guess.

If email addresses match etc.

@jj1000 - the link to the deal from this page still goes to the Attica deal.

I hope whatever method you use to prevent duplicate entries doesn't also block someone who enters a bunch of different people on their behalf (like my entry for Suave ;)).

This would guarantee all entries are removed, and all future entries are autoblocked.

A big Jewish Camp director actually did this 39 times. 

Someone on the IT team wanted them Doxxed :-O

@jj1000 I was able to check the box for second entry and submit without entering a phone number (I added a bogus entry for Test Tester to make sure I wasn’t crazy)

Ouch. It's hard to imagine how anyone can justify that to themselves.

I even wondered if one can justify entering their spouse each day (with spouse's name and contact info) if said spouse isn't actually doing it themselves. On day one I texted the link to DW so she could enter herself, but she didn't seem into it, so I haven't pushed it since. If I'm meant to win, G-d will just have to figure out how to make that happen without DW's entry :)

I admit I was tempted to double enter. But then I told myself this and the temptation dissapeared. I did enter others (I asked them first, and they had to click the confirmation email themselves). But when I enter someone who doesn't have email (or Suave) using one of my spare emails, it is their ticket, not mine. At least if JJ doesn't ban my entry. (He can probably recognize some of my emails.)

I'm surprise how many people put in their full name, am I the only concerned (a bit) about privacy?
