Series 13 minifigure contest question

[BirdOPrey5]

So I recently started with the minifigure collection... Have got 13 of 16 including Unicorn and Hot Dog guy. FIgured I might as well get my money's worth so I started putting in the codes into the website and every single time it tells me 'You've Won' but of course that isn't the real contest. I do a couple more clicks and enter the contest to win sets and submit my email and done.

Well the other day I put in like 15 codes before I thought to look at the contest rules.

The rules say 1 entry per day per person... But the form doesn't stop me from entering as many codes as I have.

Well once I read that I stopped and am now doing 1 a day- but does anyone know if that rule is enforced? Are those multiple entries just going to be tossed out? I wasted like 20 minutes entering them.

Has anyone ever won a set from this contest?

I just started entering the codes, once a day, yesterday. What are the "couple more clicks" that you need to do? I enter the code and there is only a green check box. Once I click that, I don't see an option to enter the contest.

[BirdOPrey5]

Oh man I just did it... You enter the code, it says "You Won" it tells you what piece you got and below all that is a "Next" or "Play" button, I click that and then there is a screen where I choose whether I want to enter the contest for sets (there are pictures of the Parisian Restaurant, Sydney Opera House, and Tower Bridge) on the left or something in the game on the right.

I click on the left, then i go to a page where I have to enter my email (my Lego account email is already showing though) so I just have to check the box I agree to the rules and then hit submit.

By the way here is a full copy of the rules you agree to-

Yes it's:

Enter code, then Next, Next, Next (on the left), confirm email, check box, submit, done.

[Blakstone]

Then I shouldn't try it on my iPhone.

When I use Chrome on the laptop:

I enter code, click Redeem Code, then there is a green check box. Once I click that, I am back on the account page.

Well the other day I put in like 15 codes before I thought to look at the contest rules.

The rules say 1 entry per day per person... But the form doesn't stop me from entering as many codes as I have.

Well once I read that I stopped and am now doing 1 a day- but does anyone know if that rule is enforced? Are those multiple entries just going to be tossed out? I wasted like 20 minutes entering them.

Has anyone ever won a set from this contest?

I've been wondering the same thing. I nearly blew all of my codes, but I read the rules after a few of them. LEGO said they'd post the winners, so I guess we just have to wait until they do.
