The Legality of Skill Gaming

Skill-based gaming has a well-established legal, social, and commercial history. From classic board games to major sports tournaments, games of skill have long offered participants a chance to compete based on one’s ability. Today, games of skill are available on most major media sites like AOL, MSN, and Yahoo, and are complemented by the electronic sports (eSports) industry, which lets professional gamers compete in popular video games with real money at stake.

‍

Exponential Corp (including but not limited to all branded gaming platforms that it operates, TallyUP, Rock Paper Scissors FU, FU games) (hereinafter referred to as EC) is a platform that advances this trend, enabling skill-based multiplayer tournaments on mobile or other internet connected devices while offering gamers the ability to compete for real prizes. Games powered by EC have the clear distinction of being games of skill -- and not games of chance -- a difference which makes EC tournaments legal in the majority of the United States, as well as many countries.

Are Skill-based Tournaments Gambling?

Cash-based tournaments in games of skill are not considered gambling because the generally accepted definition of gambling involves three specific things: (1) the award of a prize, (2) paid-in consideration (meaning entrants pay to compete), and (3) an outcome determined on the basis of chance. Without all three of these elements, a competition that rewards real prizes is not gambling. In the case of EC tournaments, outcomes are not determined by chance, but are rather achieved through a player’s skill or ability.

How are skill-based games different from chance-based games?

Games of skill require a physical or mental ability and a learned capacity to carry out a result. These games commonly include the use of strategy, tactics, physical coordination, strength, technical expertise, and/or knowledge. Games of chance are those with an outcome strongly influenced by random chance or uncertainty. Common randomization devices include dice, playing cards, or numbered balls drawn from a container. Games of chance may have some skill, and games of skill may have some chance, however, most U.S. courts use either the predominance test or the material element test to look at the role that skill and chance each take in determining the outcome of the game.

The Predominance Test

The predominance test is the most commonly used indicator of whether a game is skill- or chance-based. Under this test, one must envision a continuum with pure skill on one end and pure chance on the other. On the continuum, games such as chess would be almost at the pure skill end, while traditional slot machines would be at the pure chance end. Between these ends of the spectrum lie many activities containing both elements of skill and chance. A game is classified as a game of skill if the game falls predominantly closer to the skill end of the continuum.

The Material Element Test

The material element test is the second most commonly used test in the U.S. and is relied upon by 8 states to evaluate whether a game is skill or chance based. The test asks the question of whether chance plays a material role in determining a game’s outcome. As an example, in games like Minesweeper, a great deal of skill is generally exercised by players, but there are moments when players are forced to guess at random, with the results of that guess determining the winner and loser of the game. Skill predominates but chance plays a material role in determining the game’s outcome.

Where does EC offer real prize competitions?

In the U.S., the legality of skill-based competitions is determined at a state level and EC has taken extensive measures to ensure that its products are in full compliance with all the applicable laws. As of today, EC powers real prize competitions in roughly 80% of the world and 40+ US states. Additionally, real prize gameplay may also be restricted in certain locations if playing cards or dominoes are involved (see below for full details). Our virtual currency tournaments are available globally.

‍

What happens if someone logs in from a place where real prize gaming is not legal?

For locations where skill-based real prize gaming is not allowed, a player who logs in to EC will still be able to compete in such activities as virtual currency tournaments, airdrop points tournaments and perhaps more. EC uses IP address or other location signalingl aspects of a smartphone in order to determine location and eligibility to play for real prizes.

EC Compliance

EC provides a forum for safe, friendly, and competitive entertainment with monetary stakes tied to the competition of players at all levels. EC operates in full compliance with U.S. Federal and State laws, verifying the residency of anyone seeking to open an account and using IP address as well as other location-based services to determine a player’s eligibility for real prize competition.
