What is it with these damn web-contests that let anyone register but to actually be able to enter, you have to be american.

I tested this out with the contest for mountain dew. I registered fine but couldn't enter the ****ing contest!

No offense to anyone american on here but, IF YOU DON'T WANT US CANADIANS TO ENTER YOUR DAMN CONTESTS THEN PUT IT IN BOLD ON THE DAMN FRONT PAGE, INSTEAD OF IN TINY PRINT IN THE RULES !!!!

There rant over.

American Tophattians! scream scream scream
Make your own contests!

I think the only reason they do that is because the laws may differ from here to there..

All the rules that apply to several different states... different rates...
It's more time consuming and not as cost efficient, especially when your target demographic aren't 10 year olds from Australia.

Indeed they target the 9 year olds of South Carolina!
