PixelMaster Grand Prix Mechanics

In order to join, participants would need to follow these instructions:

Interested participants would need to sign up as an official member on the ASUS ZenTalk forum. Once joined, participants must then sign up at the official microsite. You would also need to indicate which leg you would be joining as each run will be led by a certain group of ASUS ZenFone Pixel Masters:

• Manila Leg – April 27
• Cebu Leg – May 4
• Davao Leg – May 5

Participants are only eligible to win the main prizes if they are ZenFone users. However, limited slots will be opened to non-ZenFone users who will get to successfully register. These non-ZenFone users will be lent a ZenFone, but they will only be eligible to win the minor prizes.

ASUS Philippines will be filtering the participants who have successfully signed-up due to the limited slots available for each leg. Shortlisted participants will be messaged via SMS and Email as early as April 5, 2019. Shortlisted participants are then given until April 12, 2019 to re-confirm their availability on the leg day. No confirmation means forfeiture of slot/s.
