Next, follow @RottenTomatoes (“Relevant Twitter Feed“) and retweet the marketing message “tweet”, calling for entries (the “Qualified Tweet“) using the “retweet” button. One (1) retweet of a Qualified Tweet during the Sweepstakes Period gets you an entry into the Sweepstakes (“Entry” or “Entries“). If more than one (1) Entry per person is received during the Sweepstakes Period, all additional Entries will be voided by Sponsor. Entrant’s Twitter account must not be in “protected mode” or the retweet of the Relevant Twitter Feed will not be a Qualified Tweet and Entrant will not be entered in the Sweepstakes.
Only one (1) Entry per Twitter account, and only one (1) Entry per household, is allowed during the Sweepstakes Period. If more than one such Entry is submitted only the first such Entry submitted will be accepted. Sponsor reserves the right to void entries by a participant who attempts to obtain more than the allowable entries by using multiple/different e-mail addresses, identities or any other methods.
By entering, entrants agree to comply with these Official Rules including all eligibility requirements. Illegible and/or incomplete Entries and Entries submitted by entrants who do not meet the eligibility requirements (including all requirements with respect to age and residence) are void.

Use of computer programs, macro, programmed, robotic, automatic and other similar means to enter the Sweepstakes is prohibited and may result in the disqualification of the entrant.

All Entries become the sole property of the Sponsor and will not be acknowledged or returned.
Qualified entries will be determined by Sponsor, in their sole discretion, by checking the Twitter @Reply function responses received in the Sponsor’s @Reply folder, for qualified and complete @Reply responses to Sponsor’s tweet message calling for entries. Sponsor is not responsible for changes to the Twitter @Reply function that may interfere with Sweepstakes or ability of entrant to timely enter. Winner will be selected from among all qualified entries received during the Sweepstakes Period, according to Sponsor’s time clock, in a random drawing on or about June 5, 2015, by Sponsor or its designee, the judge of the Sweepstakes, whose decisions are final and binding on all matters relating to the Sweepstakes (“Potential Winner” or “Potential Winners“).

Once Sponsor receives a Potential Winner’s Mailing Information and if required by Sponsor, a completed and signed Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release, Sponsor shall declare that Potential Winner is a winner (“Winner“). If an Affidavit of Eligibility and Liability/Publicity Release, and/or parental release are not required by Sponsor, which shall be determined in Sponsor’s sole discretion, a Potential Winner will be named as a Winner upon Sponsor’s receipt of the Mailing Information via email by the Deadline. Sponsor is not responsible for any failure of delivery of the Prize Notification through use of Twitter’s response functionality described in this Section 5. Return of any Prize Notification or Prizes will result in disqualification, and an alternate Potential Winner will be selected in a random drawing from all remaining eligible entries received for the original drawing. Sponsor shall repeat the winner selection and notification procedures set forth in this Section 5 until a qualified Winner has been selected, if time permits.
