I want to participate in the contest too...

Every single country in the world has their own contest rules. Whether it be baed on a contest that is judged or a contest that is based on chance, such as gambling.

It comes down to a simple thing, Square Enix obeys international laws or they would face a penalty. It has nothing to do with you being "second class", you aren't that special.

I feel for you, I truly do. It's a shame that some countries are not able to participate in events. However it is totally out of SE control and has everything to do with the country you live in and the laws that restrict you from participating in such events.

If you don't like it you only have a few options.
#1 - Petition to the appropriate government officials/department in charge of these restrictions and start a movement to overturn such laws.
#2 - Move to another country


I just thought of something else and I wonder if this may have any affect on things. I am not a lawyer so I really don't know but it's just a thought.
I wonder if the fact that we pay a subscription has anything to do with it. Only people with an account can participate in these things, correct? Hosting a contest where people have to pay to enter may most definitely be against some countries laws. The reason SE can get away with it in some areas is because we aren't winning anything with monetary value. Iunno, just a thought.
