Guys.
It's for legal reasons.
Just like any contest.
It doesn't mean BioWare or EA are ageist, racist, or sexist. 

Knock it the eff off.

You're missing the point

By 15 lightyears, give or take a couple of paces.

No, you are. Just because they COULD of done something does not mean that what they are doing NOW can be changed.

Still missing the point, what could have been done has little to do with changing anything in the now. Simply the majority of us want some sort of recognition as to why it was stated that this was going to be a US only event as opposed to their EPIC COMMUNITY EVENT that required a countdown timer for 6 days. Similar events that were nation/continent exclusive didn't get such big advertisment - point and case being the Candadian Xbox ME2 players going to BioWare....

I think you may be the only Anti-Bazaarian in this thread with a valid point.

I always assumed that that contest was only open to Canadians to show us what Canadian developers can do

I have a question about the prizes.

If and when I win a prize, does that mean I win the entire stated quantity of that prize? I really don't want to win dozens of t-shirts... Or, are they bundling certain prizes together?

Anyone answer my question?

Yeesh, I forgot MJ used to be black...It's almost creepy seeing him looking all...HUMAN like that.

Whereever he is now, i'm sure Michael is upset because he isn't part of the community either

They want answer before we are done. They'd get submerged.

Is it better to make everyone wait, then tell them that they can't take part and let them post over 50 pages of disappointment ?

There would of been 50 pages of disappointment either way.

10, perhaps. The rest of this thread is, "wtf you lied to us".

Disclaimer before the event stating only the US will be able to participate + properly stated reasons (legal issues) = estimated 10 pages of discontent and whining.

"Surprise, US only!" during the actual event launch preceded by a week of anticipation where everyone was led to believe it was a community (i.e. for everyone) event + no reason whatsoever = 60 pages of sh!tstorm.

I can't wait for this random bystander conversation on the Citadel in ME3:
Turian: "It's an outrage!"
Salarian: "I don't understand why they didn't express beforehand that the credit giveaway was limited only to humans."
Turian: "Epic Citadel Event MY ASS!"

So any statements yet from Bioaware/EA why the rest of the world is excluded ?

No and I doubt we will ever see any.

No they are just stupid or there marketing department at least.

BioWare does not set country law.

No they certainly don't and that was never the issue. They do control their own rules and policies though. They could easily provide some sort of "compensation" to "non-US residents" in the form of Bioware points, premium (future)digital content etc. They are probably 100 more creative ways that they could have implemented this, with little to no complaint and most importantly without insulting the intelligence of a portion of their fans/supporters. The way they chose to proceed was poorly though out and the actual implementation (artificial hype via the countdown) was even worse.

They're hiding from the trolls with flamethrowers.

[Corephyfish]

I'm Anti Bazzaar because it's only for USA and 'selected players' that long on at a 'selected time' at the Bioware forums.





Nah not really lol but as an Aussie Bioware fan all the hype just totally let me down, as i'm sure it did in every other non American/Canadian country.

They claim that only "412" prizes will be given out, yet there are over 2189 items up for auction.
