The Promotion Period will consist of six (6) weekly periods, each beginning immediately following the end of the initial Eastern coast broadcast of a new episode of Design Star and ending five (5) minutes prior to the start of the next week's initial Eastern coast broadcast of the next new episode of Design Star, except for the first weekly period which will begin at 3:00 p.m. ET on July 16, 2007 and end five (5) minutes prior to the start of the initial Eastern coast broadcast of a new episode of Design Star scheduled to air on July 29, 2007.

The fantasy point totals earned will be totaled to determine each participant's weekly and overall score which will be used to determine the Weekly and Grand Prize winners.
Challenges
(I) Design Challenge:
Participants will be asked to predict which designer will win the assigned challenge on the applicable week's episode. Each participant will be provided 1,000 fantasy points each week to assign to designers based on his/her confidence in which designer will win the challenge during that week's episode. A participant may assign fantasy points to just one designer he/she feels has the best chance of winning that week or he/she can spread the fantasy points among different designers as the participant deems fit. There is no limit to the number of fantasy points a participant can assign to each designer as long as he/she does not exceed 1,000 total fantasy points for the week. Fantasy points can be assigned to designers and changed at anytime prior to the weekly deadline of 5 minutes prior to the initial Eastern coast broadcast of the Design Star episode at issue. Following the announcement on the applicable Design Star episode of the winner of that week's challenge, the number of fantasy points, if any, the participant assigned to that winning designer that week will be awarded to the participant. For example, if a participant assigns 500 fantasy points to Designer A and 500 fantasy points to Designer B, and Designer B wins that week's challenge, the participant will be awarded 500 fantasy points. If, however, Designer C wins that weekly challenge, the participant will receive 0 fantasy points for the week. Bonus Fantasy Points: If a participant assigns all 1,000 fantasy points to one single designer in a week and that designer is the designer that wins that week's challenge, such participant will earn an additional 500 bonus fantasy points. For example, if a participant assigns all 1,000 fantasy points to Designer A and Designer A is the designer that wins that week's challenge, that participant will be awarded 1,500 fantasy points for that week in Design Challenge.
(II) Weekly Elimination Challenge:
Participants will be asked to predict which designer will have his/her show cancelled on the applicable week's episode. Each participant is provided 1,000 fantasy points each week to assign to designers based on his/her confidence in which designer will be eliminated in that week's episode. A participant may assign fantasy points to just one designer he/she feels has the best chance of being eliminated that week or he/she can spread the fantasy points among different designers as a participant deems fit. There is no limit to the number of fantasy points a participant can assign to each designer as long as he/she does not exceed 1,000 total fantasy points for the week, except in the weeks in which two designers will be eliminated, in which case a participant can allocate no more than 500 fantasy points to any one designer. Fantasy points can be assigned to designers and changed at anytime prior to the weekly deadline of 5 minutes prior to the initial Eastern coast broadcast of the Design Star episode at issue. Following the announcement on the applicable Design Star episode with respect to which designer has had his/her show cancelled, the number of fantasy points, if any, a participant assigned to that winning designer that week will be awarded to the participant. For example, if a participant is undecided with respect to which designer will be eliminated in a particular week and assigns 500 fantasy points to Designer A and 500 fantasy points to Designer B, and Designer B is eliminated that week, the participant will be awarded 500 fantasy points. If, however, Designer C is eliminated, the participant will receive 0 fantasy points for the week. In addition, in any episode in which more than one designer is eliminated, the fantasy points a participant assigned to each designer that is actually eliminated that week will be awarded to such participant. For example, if a participant assigns 250 fantasy points to Designer A and 750 fantasy points to Designer B and both Designer A and Designer B are eliminated, such participant will receive all 1,000 fantasy points. Bonus Fantasy Points: If a participant assigns all 1,000 fantasy points to one single designer in a week and that designer is the only one to be eliminated that week, such participant will earn an additional 500 bonus fantasy points. For example, if a participant assigns all 1,000 fantasy points to Designer A and Designer A is the only one eliminated in that week's episode, such participant will be awarded 1,500 fantasy points for that week in the Weekly Elimination Challenge. In the weeks in which more than one designer is eliminated, if a participant divided his/her fantasy points evenly between the two designers who were eliminated, such participant will earn an additional 500 fantasy points. For example, if a participant assigns 500 fantasy points to Designer A and 500 fantasy points to Designer B, and both Designer A and Designer B are eliminated in that week's episode, such participant will be awarded 1,500 fantasy points for that week in the Weekly Elimination Challenge.
(III) Predict the Design Star Challenge:
Participants will be asked to predict which of the 10 designers will ultimately win the Design Star Season 2 competition. Participants may submit or change predictions at any time during the Promotion Period; however, fantasy points awarded will carry a lower weight as the show gets closer to the finale. The earlier in the Promotion Period a participant submits a correct prediction of the ultimate Design Star for Season 2, the more fantasy points he/she will earn.
A participant who correctly predicts the winner of Design Star Season 2, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, will earn fantasy points using the following calculation:
Number of Designers Remaining at the time of Submitting the Prediction
multiplied by
Number of Days Left to the Final Episode the time of Submitting the Prediction
multiplied by
10
For example, if a participant predicts the ultimate winner to be Designer B on August 10, 2007 and Designer B wins the competition, the participant will be awarded 2,960 fantasy points (8 designers left x 37 days remaining to final episode , with the resulting number x 10 = 2,960).
All predictions must be accepted and acknowledged by the computer servers by the applicable deadline (as determined by Sponsor) to be considered valid, timely, and eligible. If, for any reason, any episode is pre-empted or not broadcast, no points will be awarded for that week and no Weekly Prize winner will be determined for that week. Awarding of fantasy points is subject to compliance with these Official Rules. Fantasy points or predictions generated by script, macro or other automated means will be void. Sponsor's and judges decisions with respect to awarding of fantasy points are final and binding.
Weekly and Grand Prize Winner Determination
Weekly Prize Winner Determination: Each week for the first six (6) weeks of the Promotion Period, the six (6) participants with the highest fantasy point totals for that week, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, will be deemed the Weekly Prize winners. In the event of a tie, Sponsor reserves the right to determine the Weekly Prize winners in a random drawing from among all remaining tied participants. Fantasy points from one week will not roll-over into subsequent weeks when determining Weekly Prize winners. Grand Prize Winner Determination: The participant with the highest fantasy point total for the entire Promotion Period, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, will be deemed the Grand Prize winner. In the event of a tie, the participant from among those tied who received the highest number of fantasy points in the Predict the Design Star Challenge will be deemed the Grand Prize winner. If a tie still exists, the participant from among those tied who received the most fantasy points in the sixth week of the Promotion Period will be deemed the Grand Prize winner. Each week in reverse order will be reviewed until a Grand Prize winner is determined. If a tie still exists, Sponsor reserves the right to determine the Grand Prize winner in a random drawing from among all remaining tied participants. All prize awards are subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these Official Rules.
