For clarity, individuals who reside with an employee of ACTIVATE or its affiliates, subsidiaries, parents, agents or licensees may participate, provided they meet all eligibility requirements.    

(e)    Players must not already be registered to participate in the same AGL season, as part of another team and/or at another ACTIVATE location.  For clarity, players are only eligible to participate at one ACTIVATE location per AGL season, and on one team per AGL season.

2. AGL Registration :

To validly register for an AGL season players must: (a) meet all Eligibility Requirements; (b) register a team of three (3) to five (5) eligible players; and (c) register to participate in a specific AGL season through a single authorized ACTIVATE location online at the following link (https://leagues.playactivate.com/en-ca/season/team/register)  at any point after the registration window for that season opens, and prior to it closing. Once a player registers to participate through an ACTIVATE location, the player is no longer eligible to register for any other location or team for the remainder of that AGL Season. PLAYERS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THEY AND ALL THEIR TEAM MEMBERS MEET ALL ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS BEFORE REGISTERING AND/OR PARTICIPATING IN THE AGL, AN AGL SEASON, OR PART THEREOF.  ACTIVATE RESERVES THE RIGHT, IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION, TO VERIFY ELIGIBILITY AT ANY TIME, AND DISQUALIFY ANY TEAMS WITH PLAYERS THAT ARE DETERMINED TO BE INELIGIBLE.

    Substitutions:  Teams may substitute one or more registered players with another player (“Substitution”) to play for the team on a particular round during AGL during the first five weeks only, provided there is at least one registered team member playing that day. Substitutions are not a member of the team.  Each Substitution must meet the following eligibility requirements: (a) they must acknowledge and agree to abide by these Supplemental Terms and Conditions and that they are not a member of the team and do not stand to win or partake in prizes; (b) they must otherwise  agree to ACTIVATE’s Waiver , Notification of Risk, Terms of Service and Privacy Policy; (c)   they must not be registered as part of any other AGL team; (b) if they are an employee, agent or representative of ACTIVATE, they), must be the only team member participating that day that is an employee, agent or representative of ACTIVATE (i.e. they must be the only ACTIVATE employee, agent or representative playing for the team that day).


3. Conduct & Disqualification

AGL players must be respectful and play with integrity.  Players may not act in an unsportsmanlike or disruptive manner.  Players must not discriminate against, harass, abuse, threaten, bully, or act with the intent to annoy any other person or show disrespect or violence towards anyone else, including without limitation other participants and staff.  Players must also not attempt to undermine the legitimate operation of AGL.  

ACTIVATE reserves the right in its sole and absolute discretion, to disqualify any player and team from the AGL, and to revoke and cancel any player’s prizes or claims to a prize, for any reason whatsoever at any time.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if ACTIVATE determines in its sole and absolute discretion that a player engaged in such unsportsmanlike etc. conduct, ACTIVATE may disqualify that player and their team’s participation in the AGL season, terminate the player and their team’s account, and revoke any coins, badges, prizes or other rewards, and deem points void. Disqualification will prevent the player and team from competing in the remainder of an AGL season from which they are disqualified.  By way of example only, a player’s eligibility may be automatically revoked should they do, or attempt to do, any of the following, as determined by ACTIVATE in its sole and absolute discretion: increase their odds of winning, or their placement in any competition or division, through any activities outside of normal game play; or increase another player or any team’s odds of winning, or their placement in any competition or division, through any activities outside of normal game play.   

If a player is disqualified from an ACTIVATE program at any time, ACTIVATE reserves the sole right and absolute discretion to ban that player from ACTIVATE facilities, or to prohibit that player’s participation in any ACTIVATE Program at any time.

ACTIVATE employees, representatives and agents may not use ACTIVATE confidential information to participate in the AGL, and should ACTIVATE determine, in its sole an absolute discretion, that confidential information has been used by an employee in a manner that results in an unfair advantage to an ACTIVATE team, ACTIVATE reserves the right in its sole and absolute discretion to disqualify the team and/or take other measures. Please note that such action may also result in disciplinary action against the employee, agent or representative. 


4. AGL Structure:

The following outlines the AGL structure, and ACTIVATE reserves the right to amend, modify or alter the structure at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, including to ensure the AGL operates as intended and remains fair and fun.  Please note that it is each participant’s respective responsibility to ensure that available times have been booked for their respective teams, and failure to book and//or attend the time that has been booked will be deemed a forfeiture. Failure to attempt your game bookings will result in a loss.  ACTIVATE recommends you book AGL game times ahead of time; bookings will be based on availability, and first come-first served.


AGL Teams: Each AGL Team includes three (3) to five (5) eligible players, all of whom must be registered to participate in the AGL. Each AGL team may substitute one or more eligible players per day but no more than the amount of registered players on their team.    Players are solely responsible for ensuring that any and all substitutes that participate on their AGL team meet all eligibility requirements (including ensuring the substitute is not registered as part of another AGL team for that AGL season), and that Substitutions are recorded as participating on the applicable day. .     


AGL is divided into “seasons” and includes competitions among different “divisions”.  The number of “divisions” will depend on the number of teams that sign up.  ACTIVATE is aiming for a minimum number of 36 teams per division.


Each “AGL Season” is seven (7) weeks in length, and consists of a “Regular AGL Season”, which runs from week one (1) to week five (5); “AGL Playoffs”, which is held on week six (6)); and “AGL Finals”, which are held on week seven (7).  


Weekly Rounds: Each week of an AGL Season, registered teams will be provided with a list of eight (8) randomly selected levels they will compete in, and the opposing team(s) they will compete against, and a one-week interval in which to complete each level assigned (each, a “Weekly Round”).


Wins and Losses: Teams are provided with three (3) attempts per level to score the highest score they can. When teams compete against one another in a level, the team with the highest total score for that level is given a “win”. Failure to complete a level will result in a score of zero (0) points for that level.  


Regular AGL Season: The Regular AGL Season includes five (5) Weekly Rounds. During the Regular AGL Season, registered teams will compete against a different team for each level assigned.  Only the top eighteen (18) teams (i.e., those with the highest number of “wins” during the AGL Season), will advance to the AGL Playoffs for that season.  


AGL Playoffs: The AGL Playoffs include one Weekly Round. During the AGL Playoffs, each team will face one other team total. For the Weekly Round of the playoffs, every team will compete against one other team for all of the seven (7) levels assigned in a Weekly Round. Only the top nine (9) teams will advance to the AGL Finals for that season.  


AGL Finals: The AGL Finals are composed of a single Weekly Round.  During the AGL Finals, all teams compete against all other teams in all seven (7) levels assigned for the last Weekly Round. The team with the highest overall score wins the AGL Season.


AGL Prizes: A prize of 25,500 Coins may be awarded in each Division, which prize is to be split between the top (3) three teams (i.e. the teams with the highest final cumulative score in the final round, as determined by ACTIVATE in its sole and absolute discretion) in the respective Division as follows:

(i)    Grand prize: 15,000 Coins,

(ii)    2nd place:  7,500 Coins,

(iii)    3rd place: 3,000 Coins.
