For each additional comment published to the Social Media Post that tags a different account/friend, Entrant will receive one (1) additional Entry. Each comment that includes a different tagged account/friend constitutes a separate and distinct Entry. However, Entrants may not tag the same account/friend more than once, or that will be considered a duplicate Entry. When there are duplicate Entries, only the first Entry will qualify. All duplicates will be disqualified. Entrants should not tag the Social Media Post. Tagging should occur only in the comment below the Social Media Post.
