Message: [QUOTE="Bob23bk, post: 2624822, member: 133743"] I understand your desire to play here, I mean who wouldn't like to play the world series?! Lying is not a good line to take, and feigning ignorance will only blow up in your face when they find this thread and bring up the fact that an agent mentioned it at a meeting and passed the information along to you. I understand your point here on background checks, but if given the chance I think any organization would seize a few hundred thousand $ due to a loophole in a contract and they would surely investigate winners (if you did happen to run [I]that[/I] good that day!). I'm not a lawyer either, or an English teacher... But from my understanding, a comma in this situation is usually meant to be read as 'and' if you refer to other legal documents or even in the MSM (look at the headlines on CNN for example). I'll give you both sides' argument as I see them: [B]You are eligible[/B] to play because the rules disqualify a spouse or anyone who lives with an employee of the company (but you don't live with her anymore, and I'm guessing you didn't marry your mom :p). [B]You are not eligible[/B] to play because children of any employee are disqualified and the agent you spoke with advised you that you were ineligible. I guess if it comes down to it, a few hundred grand or a million $ (god forbid) would be worth a phone call to get your mom to quit... On the other hand, I wouldn't enter a tourney without accepting the fact that you may be denied your winnings even if you stack all the chips! (but I think this is a risk we all accept for any tournament due to the insane variance) [/QUOTE]
