lazzy i supose u are from usa right , is not about the contest itself , is a about not been fair with everyone , and again is not about the sponsor thing is about money stated by the admin itself , why should they pay 23$ to send it to a guy's in europe when they could just make the contest us only and pay nothing.

No im not annoyed at mmorpg.com at that, im kinda annoyed at NCsoft, they alway treat EU like the second class citizen (like every other gameing companies) even though we have the bigger NCsoft fanbase

Um, you guys do know mmorpg.com is primarily a North American gaming site, correct? Do you guys go to Eurogamer and cry that they don't cater to North America, too?

No, cos eurogamer is a crap site, especially for mmorpg.

I don't know. I liked their Darkfall reviews. lol

Point is, mmorpg.com is an NA site. They cover EU as a nice bonus and include them when they can.

this.

im tired of seeing 90% of offers to US/Canada only.

even if its international - 90% of winners are still from US/Canada.

-.-

is it like 'oooh US is much bigger than europe, so lets not make ANY european offers EVER' ?

It may be based in NA but the user base is international, anyway i wasn't giving MMORPG.com any grief just the sponsor that's tied there hands here. :)

I know you weren't jinxit. I was just posting for those who don't seem to get it.

Because people come to the site from other countries doesn't make it any less of an NA oriented site. I can view and even join gamesite's in Japan. Doesn't mean their contest are going to do me any good.

Sorry guys, shipping items from the US that are worth $50 just makes no sense.   It costs $20-$35 to  ship the item then when you get it 9 times out of 10 your country will require *you* to pay tariffs for receiving the commercial item.  It just does not work.
I am sorry but we don't have an EU division, we are a very small company based solely in the US.
We try to make all contests we can open to all countries but some just don't work that way - especially when the sponsor says no.

E-Mail CD-Keys, problem solved.

Sad, sad and sad again. Europe is out, again!

lol, i prefer the first review

The graphic is a bit misleading, just FYI.  It's the box which probably includes the first 30 days, but that's not necessarily a subscription give away.

I dont recall seeing that when i signed up, i could be wrong. Makes no mention of being a primarily US only site on the homepage.

Simple solution would be to ask them, maybe?
 

If its for US and Canada only, why did the community manager at eu.aiononline.com bothered to post news about this contest? Why do they encourage us to click on the link and enter the contest? I thought EU.aiononline.com was specifically for European users only?

I rather would like to get some kind of idea when it will be known to have won, or if there will be a list posted of the lucky ones somewhere?

 Um, every contest at the end has a listing of the winners...and if they have confirmed their winnings or if its still *PENDING*.  They also PM you when you've won...and you have 24hrs to claim.

Gotta wait till it ends & somebody actually wins :P

Am just curious and anxious i guess.  :)
