A user may maintain only 1 account per IP and/or household. Use of multiple accounts to access Company services is grounds for termination of service and withholding of account earnings, funds and disqualification from all contest participation.
Only the registered user of an account may access or in any way participate in the services and contests provided by Dober. No account co-ownership shall be allowed. Use of an account by more than one individual, as determined in the sole opinion of Dober, shall constitute a breach of these Terms and shall be cause for account closure and withholding of account earnings, funds and disqualification from all contest participation.

Many portions of the Site require registration for access (the "Restricted Areas").

Entrant further acknowledges that the forfeiture and/or return of any prize shall in no way prevent Dober from pursuing criminal and/or civil proceedings in connection with such conduct. Further, this service may not be used for any form of gambling.
Absolutely no form of automated script can be used to access any part of the Dober services. Use of a script to enter a contest, log into an account or do anything that is not initiated by a keyboard, mouse or audio/visual impaired device will not be allowed. Use of audio/visual impaired devices will need to be done for medically approved and proven reasons in the event that the use of such devices comes into question. Use of any form of automation to enter or use the Dober services will result in account closure, possible loss of funds and disqualification from current and past games.
Dober and any partners are not responsible for: any incorrect, invalid or inaccurate entry information; human errors; technical malfunctions; failures, including public utility or telephone outages; omissions, interruptions, latency, deletions or defects of any telephone system or network, computer online systems, data, computer equipment, servers, providers, or software (including, but not limited to, software and operating systems that do not permit an entrant to participate in the service), including without limitation any injury or damage to any entrant's or any other person's computer equipment relating to or resulting from participation in the service; inability to access any website, or any web pages of Dober; theft, tampering, destruction, or unauthorized access to, or alteration of, entries and/or images of any kind; data that is processed late or incorrectly or is incomplete or lost due to telephone, computer or electronic malfunction or traffic congestion on telephone lines or transmission systems, or the Internet, or any service provider's facilities, or any phone site or website or for any other reason whatsoever; typographical, printing or other errors, or any combination thereof.
Your use of Dober is AS IS. Dober and any partners are also not responsible for incomplete, illegible, misdirected or stolen entries. If for any reason the service is not capable of running as originally planned, or if the service or website associated therewith (or any portion thereof) becomes corrupted or does not allow the proper usage and processing of entries in accordance with the rules, or if infection by a computer (or similar) virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, actions by entrants, fraud, technical failures, or any other causes of any kind, in the sole opinion of Dober corrupts or affects the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper conduct of the service, Dober reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual implicated in such action and/or to cancel, terminate, extend, modify or suspend the service, and select the winner(s) from all eligible entries received.
You agree to provide us with any information we might require to verify your identity, social security number, residence, location or other information related to your account and your use of the Company Services. Dober will also request tax documentation from winners. In the event that we request any verification documents or tax documentation, we reserve the right to withhold earnings and funds until such verification is provided. In the event that verification documents are not provided, you understand that Dober retains the right to withhold all account winnings and funds. Failure to provide tax documentation based on winnings can result in disqualification from the contest from which such winnings were derived and loss of winning funds.
In January each year all winners who have won $600 (or the equivalent in Euros) or more (net of all deposits and payouts) over the previous year will be mailed a 1099-MISC tax form to claim their personal gains. These details will be used to file a 1099-MISC with the Internal Revenue Service. All users are required to input their personal information (for the possibility of filing the 1099-MISC tax form) upon their initial cash out request. This information will be kept private in a secure database.
All payments are final. No refunds will be issued. In the event of a dispute regarding the identity of the person submitting an entry, the entry will be deemed submitted by the person in whose name the account was registered.
Through use of company services, users hereby represent and warrant that the user is of sound mind and fully able to enter into this agreement and the obligations, affirmations, warranties and representations herein. Use of company services implies user is representing and warranting that:
Dober Games reserves the right to verify eligibility of users by requesting documentation of such eligibility and/or a written affidavit attesting to user eligibility and compliance with the terms and conditions contained herein.
If a user is found to be ineligible for participation or use of the contests provided by Dober, then Dober reserves the right to, not withstanding any other existing rights Dober has in law or equity, to withhold earnings, payment and cancel any contest participation and prizes won by ineligible user participation. All ineligible accounts will be closed and deemed fraudulent.
Depositing of funds by the user to Dober shall be done with the sole purpose of participating in real money contests provided by Dober. Depositing of funds for any other purpose, including but not limited to money laundering, tax evasion, hiding of assets or any other non-contest participation motives as determined in the sole discretion of Dober will constitute a violation of these Terms and shall be cause for account closure. Dober reserves the right to contact relevant authorities and share the information of users that engage in such activity.
Dober’s fantasy sports based contests are a game of skill. Dober determines winners in accordance with the criteria that can be found in our Rules and Scoring page along with the guidelines posted here and on the pages of each individual contest. Users utilize their knowledge and skill to pick match ups which are based on the performance of individual athletes in real life sporting events. A minimum of two player match ups must be selected to enter contests. Colorado and New York are restricted to fantasy points only contest due to state legal restrictions.
Contests have a fixed entry cost and a fixed prize that will be displayed to the user before contest participation. User can select different contests based on the US dollar amount the user wishes to place at risk. Dober may offer free contests with real money prizes which shall be listed in US dollars. Prizes are to be awarded to the username that submits the entry. All entry fees are final upon submission and there shall be no refunds or cancelations.
Dober reserves the right to cancel, amend or change any contest at any time without notifying the user of such changes.
Contest results are based on the final statistics and scoring results at the completion of the last professional sports game of each individual Contest. Once Contest results are reviewed and graded, prizes are awarded. The scoring results of a Contest will not be changed regardless of any official statistics or scoring adjustments made by the leagues at later times or dates, except in Dober’s sole discretion. Dober reserves the right to cancel and reverse any payments made from contests with adjusted scoring and user agrees to facilitate the return of any payments made on incorrectly graded plays or plays with scoring adjustments.
Dober may cancel or disqualify a user from contest participation if Dober, in its sole discretion, finds a user to be in breach of the terms and conditions contained herein, in the terms and conditions of any individual contest, or if a User is engaged in improper, fraudulent or unfair activity or any activity that is adverse or detrimental to the functioning of the services of Dober or any of its users.
User acknowledges that the return or forfeiture of any contest winnings or funds in no way shall prevent Dober from further pursuing civil or criminal charges against users engaged in improper, fraudulent or any activity that violates these Terms related to Company Services.
There shall be no substitution or transfer of prizes in any manner unless previously authorized by Dober in writing. In the event of a dispute as to a contest winner or the proper recipient of a contest prize, Dober shall be the sole judge in such disputes and Dober’s decision shall be deemed final and binding.
With the exception of customers from Maine, a customer may not enter any individual contest more than 3 times. Customers from Maine are further restricted to only 1 entry per contest. At Dober's sole discretion, Dober reserves the right to place customer wins under a review period for up to two weeks to verify all related events and registrations before issuing a payment on any contest winnings.
Contests shall have the duration as required for the completion of the respective sporting events for the contest at hand. Generally our contests are designed to last between one day and one week, but given that users can create their own contests with our highly granular system, some contests may have a longer duration.
By participating in Dober’s fantasy sports contests, user agrees to have user image, photograph, likeness, voice, location and prize amount utilized by Dober and its associates, business partners and affiliates in the creation and distribution of marketing and promotional materials that can be published on the internet, radio, TV, podcast, newspaper, magazines and any other advertising mediums. User agrees not to seek any remuneration, charge, fee and not to impose any conditions or obligations for such usage of user data in connection with advertising and marketing campaigns. There may be additional requirements for advertising waivers when participating in certain contests. Any winner of a prize above $5,000.00 USD may be required to submit a video recording detailing their experience that can then be used for advertising and publishing purposes before a payout request for such earnings will be processed.
In the event that a user accepts a bonus or promotional offer, any deposits from such account will be required to complete a minimum of a one time play through of the deposit (so a user must enter contests for the total value of deposit). In the case of the Instant match bonus, users must playthough the bonus one time before being able to convert to cash. Then all cash conversions and original deposit have a one time playthrough before being eligble for withdrawal.
All cash balances that originate from a bonus balance, free contest, VIP points, or any and all promotional offers where a cash balance is provided will have a 1x roll over requirement before being eligible for withrawal.
Some bonuses will be released as a user enters real money contests. In the event that a user is awarded such a bonus and the user fails to complete the real money entries required to clear the bonus amount within 45 days, Dober reserves the right to cancel such bonuses.
In the event that Dober shall offer a bonus based on deposit alone, and the user immediately withdraws the deposit after the provision of the bonus, Dober will retain the right to retract such bonus or bonuses. In any event where Dober, in its sole discretion, determines a user is abusing the bonus system, Dober retains the right to cancel any and all bonuses such a user might have received.
Each bonus includes specific bonus terms and conditions. Please consult the applicable bonus terms and conditions before accepting a bonus. If your bonus has any of the following conditions, please note the following:
Play Through: A bonus might not be convertable to cash until a certain amount of play has been completed. This is measured in multiples of the bonus amount. If a user receives a $100 bonus with 2x playthrough, that means the user must enter $200 worth of contests before the bonus amount can be converted to cash.
Sticky: A sticky bonus is an amount that will be taken back before the amount can be converted to cash. For example, if a user receives $100 in sticky bonus, and wins $250, the user will only receive $150, as the original $100 will be taken back, generally at the time of completing playthrough. If sticky bonus is not automatically removed at playthrough conversion it shall be removed upon the second bonus to cash conversion initiated by the user.
Maximum Cashout: A maximum cashout is the maximum amount a user might win with a bonus, it is generally measured in multiples of the bonus amount. For example if a user receives a $100 bonus with a 5x max cashout, this means the user can convert no more than $500 worth of bonus money to cash. So if the user reaches $900 in balance from the previously mentioned bonus, the user can request no more than $500 in cash conversion; the other $400 will be removed and lost.
If the last transaction of a user was a withdrawal from a no deposit bonus, the user will be ineligible for any further no deposit bonuses unitl the user has made a deposit and made a least 1x playthrough on the deposit. Any withdrawals from back-to-back no deposit bonus will be deemed ineligible and the winnings forfeit.
Unless specifically stated otherwise by Dober in writing or as stated within these Terms, there shall be no third party beneficiaries to these Terms.
