The ten (10) eligible Entrants whose Custom Suit obtains the highest scores (in the opinion of the judging panel) subject to the terms herein, shall be declared potential Semi-Finalists and advance to Phase Two. For the resolution of ties, see the Resolution of Ties section below. If a potential Semi-Finalist is deemed ineligible or subject to disqualification for any other reason in accordance with these Rules, such Entrant will be disqualified and the eligible Custom Suit, if any, that garnered the next highest score (in the opinion of the judging panel) will be declared the new potential Semi-Finalist.

Should the pool of Entrants be deemed ineligible or otherwise not in compliance with these Rules, Sponsor may at its own discretion decide there is no Semi-Finalists or Grand Prize Winner. Sponsor’s decisions in all matters relating to this Contest will be final and binding.
As stated above, each eligible Custom Suit will be judged (by the judging panel) in accordance with the following equally weighted judging criteria (the “Judging Criteria”):
#1 Originality | 0-25 points |
#2 Creativity | 0-25 points |
#3 Technical Skill Displayed in the Quality of Work Presented | 0-25 points |
#4 Adherence to Spider-Man DIY custom suit Theme | 0-25 points |
JUDGES’ SCORING WILL BE AVERAGED AMONG PARTICIPATING JUDGES. NO ENTRANT RECEIVING A TOTAL AVERAGE SCORE OF LESS THAN 80 POINTS WILL BE ELIGIBLE TO WIN THE CONTEST.
In the event of a tie, the tied Custom Suit that received the higher total score from all judges in the “Originality” category will be declared the applicable Semi-Finalist. In the event of a remaining tie, the tied Custom Suit that received the higher total score from all judges in the “Creativity” category will be declared the potential Semi-Finalist. In the event of a remaining tie, the tied Custom Suit that received the higher total score from all judges in the “Technical Skill” category will be declared the potential Semi-Finalist. In the event of a remaining tie, the tied Custom Suit that received the higher total score from all judges in the “Adherence to the Spider-Man DIY custom suit Theme” category will be declared the potential Semi-Finalist. If needed, the judges will re-score the tied Custom Suits in all four (4) categories until the relevant tie is broken.
The Entrants declared to be the potential Semi-Finalists will be reasonably notified by Sponsor via email and/or phone within three (3) days of the end of judging.
If a potential Semi-Finalist cannot be reached within a reasonable period (as determined by Sponsor) and after a few reasonable attempts, and/or if a potential Semi-Finalist is found not to meet the eligibility requirements or is otherwise found not to be in compliance with these Rules, or if any notification is returned as undeliverable for any reason, the potential Semi-Finalist may at Sponsor’s sole discretion be disqualified and, as determined by Sponsor in its sole and exclusive discretion, the Entrant associated with the Custom Suit that received the next highest score (as described above) may be deemed a potential Semi-Finalist. If the new potential alternate is found not to meet all the eligibility requirements set forth in these Rules, Sponsor may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, continue this process and seek to select one (1) or more new alternates from the pool of Entrants. Any new selectee, if any, will have to meet all eligibility requirements and otherwise be in compliance with these Rules in order to be declared a potential Semi-Finalist.
Provided that at least some Semi-Finalist Entries are in compliance with these Rules, Phase Two consists of public voters (“Voters”) logging on to the Contest Site and voting for the one (1) Semi-Finalist, based on the Judging Criteria, to be the best among the Semi-Finalist’s Custom Suits posted on the Contest Site. THERE IS A LIMIT OF ONE (1) VOTE PER VOTER THROUGHOUT PHASE TWO. By voting on the Contest Site, Voters acknowledge compliance with the voting process and understand that no robotic, programmed, script, macro or other automated votes (collectively "Automated Votes") are permitted. Automated Votes or votes that have been tampered with will result in disqualification of all such votes. Contest Entities are not responsible for any problems or technical malfunctions of any telephone network or lines, computer on-line systems, servers or providers or computer equipment or software on account of technical problems or traffic congestion on the Internet or at any website or combination thereof, including injury or damage to Voter’s or to any other person’s computer related to or resulting from participating in Phase Two. If, for any reason, any aspect of the voting process of Phase Two is not capable of running as planned, including infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, or any other causes beyond the control of Contest Entities which causes corrupt or affect the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper conduct of the Phase Two voting process or for any other reason Sponsor deems it necessary, Sponsor reserves the right at its sole discretion to cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the Phase Two voting process. Should the Phase Two voting process be terminated prior to the stated expiration date, notice will be posted on the Contest Site.
At the end of Phase Two, the five (5) eligible Semi-Finalist Entries who have received the most votes will be declared potential Finalists. For the resolution of Phase Two ties, see the Resolution of Ties section below. If a potential Finalist is deemed ineligible or subject to disqualification for any other reason in accordance with these Rules, such potential Finalists will be disqualified and the eligible Semi-Finalist, if any, that garnered the next highest number of votes in this Phase Two will be declared the new potential Finalist. The new Finalist, if any, will need to meet all eligibility requirements and otherwise be in compliance with these Rules in order for such Finalist to be declared the potential prize winner. This process will continue until all five (5) potential Finalists have been determined from among the Semi-Finalists If Semi-Finalist is deemed ineligible or otherwise not in compliance with these Rules, in which case Sponsor may at its own discretion decide not to award the Grand Prize. Sponsor’s decisions in all matters relating to this Contest will be final and binding.
In the event of a Phase Two tie (i.e., more than one Semi-Finalist has received the same number of votes), Sponsor will declare the Semi-Finalist that scored highest in the “Originality” category will be declared the potential Finalist. In the event of a remaining tie, the tied Semi-Finalist that received the higher total score from all judges in the “Creativity” category will be declared the potential Finalist. In the event of a remaining tie, the tied Semi-Finalist that received the higher total score from all judges in the “Technical Skill” category will be declared the potential Finalist. In the event of a remaining tie, the tied Semi-Finalist that received the higher total score from all judges in the “Adherence to the SpiderMan DIY custom suit Theme” category will be declared the potential Finalist. If needed, the judges will re-score the tied Semi-Finalist in all four (4) categories until the relevant tie is broken.
Each eligible Finalist’s Custom Suit will be judged by the costume designer, if available, or an individual selected by Sponsor in accordance with the Judging Criteria specified above. The one (1) Finalist with the highest score will be deemed the Grand Prize Winner (“Grand Prize Winner”).
At the conclusion of Phase Two, the Entrant declared to be the potential Grand Prize Winner will be contacted by telephone or email on or about June 14, 2017. Potential Grand Prize Winner will be required to respond to this notification within two (2) days of issuance, verifying eligibility in the Contest (per these Rules) and providing a complete mailing address (no post office boxes) within the Eligibility Area. Once the potential Grand Prize Winner responds to this notification, the Contest Administrator will send via overnight delivery, a package that includes an Affidavit of Eligibility/Release of Liability and (except where prohibited) Publicity Release form (the “Affidavit”). In order for the potential Grand Prize Winner to be declared the Grand Prize Winner and to be able to redeem the prize, the potential Grand Prize Winner will be required to execute and notarize the Affidavit and return it to the Contest Administrator within three (3) days of issuance.

If the new potential Finalist is found not to meet all the eligibility requirements set forth in these Rules, Sponsor may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, determine that there is no Grand Prize Winner or, time permitted, as determined by Sponsor in its sole and exclusive discretion, continue this process and seek to select a new potential Grand Prize Winner from the remaining Finalist. Any new potential Grand Prize Winner, if any, will have to meet all eligibility requirements and otherwise be in compliance with these Rules in order to be declared the Grand Prize Winner.
The Grand Prize shall consist of a 3-day/2-night trip to the SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING (“Picture”) premiere, if held (“Trip”).

Grand Prize will be awarded as detailed above but may subsequently be rescinded by Sponsor at any time if Sponsor determines that a Grand Prize Winner who was awarded his or her prize did not meet the eligibility requirements set forth in these Rules or was otherwise not in compliance with these Rules. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any potential prize winner and/or not award the prize to a winner if it is discovered that such winner has been charged with (and currently pending final resolution) or convicted of any criminal offense (felony or misdemeanor) or is found to have committed any act which might tend to bring prize winner, Sponsor, the Picture or its promotional campaign, or any advertising campaign of the Sponsor, or any other individual or entity into public disrepute, contempt, scandal, or ridicule, or which might tend to reflect unfavorably on Sponsor, the Picture or its promotional campaign, as determined by Sponsor in its sole and exclusive discretion.
