These restrictions aren't done because SE hates the rest of the world, it's because setting up contests with actual/physical prizes aren't easy to organize at all and all sorts of international laws need to be considered including things like age restrictions, value of the prize (some countries will allow more, some less) and pretty much every little detail.

So seriously stop crying all the time, it's not their fault. I've had to run contests in my line of work before and you have no idea how difficult it is to run these things (legally).

They also might be planning to do other similair/identical contests for other regions and just haven't posted them yet?
Oh please, don't be an gullible fool. Or a white knight. Not sure which. Either way, don't be.

Did we complain when they had the moogle doll contest? No. We realize SE has to deal with things such as shipping and country laws or getting goods outside said country (although this is BS, a single doll is less than 50$ and doesn't even get taxed).

We are complaining because this is an ingame item. DO tell whats stopping SE from making this a world wide contest. Do explain to me how your line of work has taught you this to be a difficult task.

The servers are staying whereever they are. Adding some 0s and 1s doesn't go against any law in the world.

So please don't try and paint SE as the underdog. FFS we are talking about a multi million video game company.
