Ironic considering the devs are _in_ SEA. \*facepalm

Bear in mind we can all still aim for the other stuff, just not the PS4. Oh wait no we can’t. Well sh!t.

The sponsor of the competition is 505 Games (who are based in Italy it seems? O.o) rather than the devs, so they get to set the rules I guess.

And yeah I found it weird the ingame stuff was opened to EU people, but not SEA…

I think it has to do with the laws in those countries. Not sure what they are, but they must make it really difficult since it’s always the same places discluded. Call/Write your representatives?

If you would still like to enter for the other prizes you must be a legal resident of the US, Canada (excluding Quebec) or the European Union (excluding Spain and the UK.)

I am a US citizen but I am not currently residing in the States. Do I still qualify?  
And, assuming the small chance that I can win, would it be possible to simply have one of my US friends claim the prize?

Also, what is up with Conneticiut, Maryland, Nevada, North Dakota and Vermont? Is this something political? Did they do something bad recently? 😕

Unfortunately this competition can’t be open to every country due to legal issues. Of course we’d like it to be completely international, but it’s not possible at this time.

@Jainus, You can participate if you’re part of the EU. I know it’s not ideal, but it’s better than only being able to enter if you’re a US citizen.

Spain is part of the EU, and the UK is still (technically) part of the EU, for now…

Sorry to make some good news sound divisive and bad news… sour grapes probably…

Sweets Or Gems  
Courtesy of danOzzzy189talentlessstosspot

Everywhere I look it’s the same old scene  
Zombies staring into eeevil screens  
There seems no point to what’s going on  
Spending pleasure units on some moronic con

Sweets or gems, it’s all the same  
Mindless zombies playing mindless games  
Gems in your sleep, sweets on your mind  
The tasteless part of the daily grind  
Sweets or gems it’s all the same  
Mindless zombies playing a mindless game

This crazy craze is just a curse  
All part of the plan to make us worse  
Who’s behind it and what’s the plan?  
Conspiracy, elite group, government scam?  
Maybe peeps from OZ land have a hand in this  
Because sometimes this game takes the piss

Sweets or gems it’s all the same  
Moronic morons playing moronic games  
Why we do this no one knows  
Addicts cascading almost coming to blows  
What’s the answer to this plight  
Continue on with the daily fight?  
Or smash the TV or ps4  
Nah, screw it I’m gonna play it some more.

There are too many comments and chatters in this thread.  
@Saltypatra, would you mind starting an official thread that only limits submissions later during the month?

More than happy to do that. When we are getting more entries I’ll compile them all into a thread so everyone can see them and then limit it to new entries.
