8. All prizes shall be awarded at the discretion of Thinkbox.

9. You must credit all participating agencies in your submission.

10. You may enter the same campaign for multiple categories. However, the same campaign can only be shortlisted once in any given awards year, so this would be in the category where it scored the highest during the shortlisting process.
