So much for an European Union and we still gotta have separate laws for this kind of stuff per country.

What the hell ;_;

Cool thanks for the intel Taylor ^.^ 

Do we need to just login or there is a consecutive time to play ?

First read the rules and check if you are elegible to participate, as most of the countries are banned for the giveaway

Why is Florida excluded exactly?

Quote

Each state has its own rules governing sweepstakes, occasionally making it more difficult for a sponsor to offer a promotion in a particular state.Florida, New York and Rhode Island often are excluded because they have more restrictive laws governing prizes of high value. Although not legally restrictive, Alaska,Hawaii, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Canada are often omitted due to higher shipping costs for distributing prizes. Some other common restrictions include California, Tennessee and Utah for alcohol-related sweepstakes; Massachusetts, Michigan and Virginia for tobacco-related sweeps; while Quebec has particularly stringent laws about sweepstakes. 

Taken from some random other sweepstakes after searching 'excluding florida' on google.  Basically Florida (and various other states of US and countries) prohibits a lot of high value prizes being given to their residents.  Take it up with your senator or whatever.

Is there any chance that you could open it up to everyone, but make the stipulation that they have to pick it up from DE headquarters within 14 days?

It doesn't have to do with delivery. It has to do with the laws and regulations of your country.

Everyone needs support DE's, but.. DE cannot support another countrys.. what a shame

You know, we do get it, it's not their fault, perhaps not for the rules and such of our illegible countries, but they -could- have considered.. in fact, they no doubt have considered, whether or not this contest is worth the S#&$ storm from everyone who is excluded.

Apparently, to them, it's worth it, they apparently concluded a contest for probably around half their eligible player base, is better then nothing, there's merit to it, sure, but it means they also chose to endure the S#&$ storm from the rest of us.

i understand that you get it, but there are other people that are looking here and posting upset that they are ineligible. all I'm trying to do is pass information to those that are upset in such a way that their frustration is not directed twards DE for stupid rules and restrictions of their own contries/states/provinces.

Will there be any plans for giveaway for other regions like *winkwink* Asia any time soon? Or the regulations will prevent this for a long time?

Listen, just leave in a trash can on the corner of oak and Freeman around 6pm.  A man with a gold watch will show up and say "lovely day we're having".  He will slide you the winning ticket, the take out the trash....we can do this @[DE]Taylor .  ;)

Very sad and weird that Spain is not in the list of eligible countries and regions.

Good luck to those who can participate.

hmm, ok weird question here, what if we have family/friends who could receive the price for us in the eligible countries, but we ourselves aren't there?, for example, i have a few cousins in Los angeles who could easely take the task, they are lega lresidents of the US and have valid IDs etc, but i'm not, can i have them act as middlemen for me?

[Kutsus]

Those all look awesome, its pretty sad that there's such a limited amount of countries that are eligible tho :(

got nothing to do with that, it's about where they managed to get authorisation for the giveaways, also some countries/cities/etc have giveaways prohibited, so they can't the authorisation for it there.

[JesterTheNight]

No Italy or Spain...

They would have to enter giveaway, meet criteria, and if they win, whatever they won is theirs. and NOONE IN DE will tell them what to do with it.
Their country however may have some tax-gift regulations so check that on your side.

What a nice giveaway. It is a shame that Austria is excluded. But I understand the reason.

But what if someone of our relatives lives in these mentioned countries? Wouldn't it be possible to let them recieve the price and send it to the players country?

So Asia and any country within Asia is not eligible huh ?..

For a second i felt like i could get a chance to get a good pc only for gaming warframe on it..

And then i read the Mail-in form and it says eligible residences limited..

Guess im stuck with this lame PC system for warframe gaming until next year again.. sigh!!

 

Anyways im gonna be logging in as always everyday just like how I have been since 2013 .. LOL..

 

Good luck to everyone who live in  eligible countries and who have participated in this giveaway.. hope this giveaway goes to the one person who really desparately needs a good gaming PC for all his gaming needs..

Best of Luck to everyone one ..
