As someone in the EU who takes really great screenshots and has a library of doppelganger ones already, this upsets me.

One day my time to shine will come...!

I didn't see this discussion thread when I made a new topic, please disregard the topic and I'll post my request here:

Please don't make the same mistake that FFXI makes with their forum contests. Many of us have more than 1 paid service accounts on our 1 square enix account to play with family members and with this contest rule: "One entry per person. If multiple entries are posted, only the first one submitted will be accepted." Basically than means if you have family members on the same square enix account, in which each person pays the subscription fee, yet only 1 person in that family can enter the contest. FFXI gets a lot of grief on its forums because of this restriction and for years I've had to step aside and let my wife enter the contests instead of me because only 1 of us can enter, even though we both pay to play the game. I ask of you, please don't exclude me from these contests. Thanks.

I think you didn't read. It said per person, not per square enix account

FFXI has the same rule and it never accepted my entries. I know this because there were participation prizes that were distributed to the moghouse. My wife would get the participation prize and I wouldn't. They just ignore the second entries.

Think it would be okay to put both entries on 1 post? With the words FINAL FANTASY XIV1 and FINAL FANTASY XIV2 (which is what they call each service account.) SE, I would really love to know where I stand here, I would really like to enter this contest along with my wife but we're both under 1 Security Token/Square Enix Account and we each pay for our own subscriptions, so it is 2 separate people under 1 SE account.

And as always Quebec is excluded from the contest, awesome, looks like I'll never be able to participate to a contest here.

How are you excluded from the contest you are in North America - The Whole Continent not just The United States - it says North America not United States so think about that - Quebec is in North America is it not?

Quebec has a bunch of laws/regulations when it comes to contests. So rather then deal with it most contests just void Quebec.

Yeah, the contest didn't say the top 100 with the most likes wins... the problem with contests where winners are chosen based on likes is that more often than not it's a popularity contest and who has the most friends... someone can have a not so good photo and a ton of likes just based on the amount of friends a person has. Contests are much better when it is judged by a panel of judges working with the contest holder, I believe those are more fair
