     strive earnestly in good faith to win. The term includes, but is
     not limited to, any pseudocontest, the result of which has been
     prearranged, or any pseudocontest in which either participant
     does not, is not going to or is unable to use or is prevented

     reward or promise thereof, physical incapacity or disability,
     suggestion or agreement or any other improper or unlawful means.
