i hope your not saying about the guy who told people how to steal accounts that people paid for at gamestop people are not seeing this is a gamestop site and they want you to buy power up account i dont like someone stealing from another but of course the people stealing dont see it that way and if it works by simply giving the code to people i dont mind but taking someones account number is wrong

PowerUp accounts are free, PowerUp Pro accounts are not.

Just FYI, but several US residents have echoed the sentiment that country-specific restrictions on a non-country restricted game is herp-de-derp retarded.

You can enter by mail, but you still need to be a US resident.

So let me get this straight… there is a member of kong staff actively reading these threads, and this is the only point raised in the last two days that merits any response. Correct?

As was stated by ZShadow (I think that was his name), this is not the only contest that will be held, and there are likely to be other contests that are for non-US residents as well….except Australians. Now THOSE people I feel sorry for. The rest…? Less QQ, more Pew Pew.

Wait wait wait wait.
People think I’m not a US citizen? Please look at my tickets to see that I have the two Tyrant tickets, meaning yes I am an American.
I’m disgusted at the fact that a great game site like this decides to blatently favor one country over all the others with a contest.

It just happens that gamestop is in the US. They would extend it to other countries if gamestop were there.

“if were there”?
I live in Spain, we have GameStop here: [http://www.gamestop.es/](http://www.gamestop.es/)
But the shops don’t have any cards, and they (the guys running the store) don’t even know what Kongregate is.

What a silly thread. This competition isn’t for the players, it’s for Gamestop. They own Kongregate and they want people to come into their store. It’s that simple. And complaining over one little card is overkill. It’s a single card. It’s a decent card, but not necessary. Maybe, perhaps, some kind of company or something will do a competition in your country, but as it stands, since this IS being put on by Gamestop, they will do whatever they want.

Absolutely. And wet socks. I don’t like wet socks either.

Other contests weren’t US only… but, I remember one contest about winning something on White Castle, I don’t remember people complaining about this being unfair…

I’m surprised that nobody has mentioned yet that there’s a lot of legal issues in running a lottery or competition, and that this might be the reason this particular promotion is only running in the US.
