“Where’s Lopy?” official rules

1. Organiser

The game “Where’s Lopy?” is run by the publisher of lopy.fun (see the legal notice). Contact: hello@lopy.fun.

2. Free entry

Taking part is completely free, with no purchase necessary. No sign-up or personal information is required to play.

3. How it works

A grid of 1,000 × 1,000 pixels (1,000,000 squares) is displayed. At the start of each season, the server randomly picks the position of one winning pixel. The first player to test that pixel wins the season.

Each player gets 100 tries per day, reset at midnight (UTC). A shared cap also applies per internet connection to limit abuse. Testing a pixel that has already been tested does not use up a try.

4. Duration

A season starts on its opening date and ends as soon as the winning pixel is found. A new season may then open with a new position.

5. Fairness and verification

At the start of each season, the SHA-256 fingerprint of the string lopy:s[season]:[x],[y]:[secret code] is published on the game page. At the end of the season, the position and the secret code are revealed, so anyone can check that the position was never changed.

6. Prize

The winner of each season receives a lollipop, mailed free of charge. The prize cannot be exchanged or converted into cash.

If the winner’s country bans or restricts importing food by post, or if shipping by post is impossible for any other reason, the winner will instead receive a lollipop bought and delivered by any other lawful means (for example an order from a local shop), or a voucher of equivalent value so they can get their prize. The organiser chooses the solution and makes sure the winner can always obtain their prize.

7. Claiming the prize

When finding Lopy, the winner receives a unique winning code. It must be sent to hello@lopy.fun within 30 days, together with a postal address. The code is checked before shipping. Minors take part under their parents’ responsibility.

8. Fraud

Using bots, scripts, automation tools, multiple connections or any other means of getting around the daily try limit is forbidden. The organiser may cancel any win obtained fraudulently.

9. Personal data

No identifying data is collected to play (see the legal notice and privacy policy). The winner’s postal address is used only to ship the prize and is then deleted.

10. Liability

The organiser cannot be held responsible for service interruptions, technical problems or parcels lost in the post. The organiser may change or end the game at any time without any right to compensation.

11. Governing law

These rules are governed by the law of the organiser’s country, without prejudice to any rights participants have under the law of their country of residence.
