II. Transactions on the Site

1. Intent of the Site. The Site is designed for registered users (“Users”) to (i) create private or public on-line sports betting leagues on the Site (each a “League”), (ii) to join public Leagues, or private Leagues by invitation, and (iii) and to “friend,” “follow” and communicate with other users on the Site; and (iv) to participate in forums and other interactive features of the Site. Each League is governed by a set of rules designed by the sponsor of the League within the constraints of the Site Rules, including the primary rule that no real money, item of value or consideration of any kind be awarded to the winner of any bets or Leagues (the “League Rules”).

2. Only a Venue; Role of TheWagerLeagues. Each private League (including its League Rules) is designed exclusively by the user identified as the sponsor of that League (a “Sponsor”). You agree and acknowledge that TheWagerLeagues does not award any money or other valuable consideration to any winner. Winners on the Site are awarded virtual dollarsand bragging rights only. The Site is only a venue for users to interact with other users, intended primarily for entertainment value and to allow for the enjoyment of legal betting on sports through virtual winnings only. We have the right, but not the obligation, to monitor, edit, refuse to post, or remove any User Submission (as defined below) from the Site, in our discretion. Likewise, the Site Rules or functions of the Site may provide guidance to users and sponsors in designing their Leagues and League Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we do not screen all User Submissions, and you agree not that we are not responsible for the legality or content of User Submissions including any communications among users, nor for any actions or failures to act by any user of the Site. The information, photos and content a user posts for public view as part of his Profile, or in any public comment or communication, are referred to here as “User Submissions.”

3. Assumption of Risk. You agree that you participate in the interactive functions of the Site, including becoming a League Sponsor, at your own risk. In particular, we make no representation, and give you no assurance, that:

· A League (including its League Rules and the virtual money offered to winners) is legal in your jurisdiction or is being carried out in compliance with the legal requirements of any country, state, municipality or other government authority or regulatory entity applicable to the sponsor or participants in such Contest (“Legal Requirements”), even if designed in accordance with the Site Rules.

· Users (a) are not misrepresenting their identity, location or authority to undertake their activities on the Site, (b) are of legal age and capacity to enter into contracts; or (c) will comply with this Agreement or the Site Rules.

You will execute the League according to your League Rules.

In the event that you have a dispute with another user of the Site (whether about a League or about User Submissions made by such user), you hereby release us, our managers, members, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential, and including attorneys’ fees) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes, and you agree that you shall assert such claims only against the other user. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”
