Bryos-DN Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 For the next months until the winners are announced, I will change my nationality to one of the fifty (50) United States of America or Canada (OBVIOUSLY excluding Quebec!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arhangelos Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 OH yeah, that too, I am European, not only they sold us to FailForge, but they also exclude us from the contest. I have a friend from Quebec, he is not proud to be from there, I do not know why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesecake-DN Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 It's for their legal department. They are required to put it in the rules. Plenty of non-US players have participated in the past and won. I have a couple non-NA players I'm cheering for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryos-DN Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Sheer curiosity here, but why not Quebec? Anyone acquainted with American-Canadian politics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if someone in the EU (or Quebec!) were to submit a design and it wins, one could just -say- you lived in Texas.. if anyone asks you, which I honestly don't think anyone would ask.

The laws could be updated a bit, [ nare are in supposed to be, although I don't know the timeframe] but there is a logical reason for them. They protect the consumer. The reason that the US, or even some national (meaning pan-Canadian) lotteries don't include them is due to the relatively small population not justifying the legal cost for some contests, in the view of whomever is sponsoring the contest.

AhemCHU* Since I hail from the land of Canadia (I call it that to nyerk other Canadians off. Sounds more like a country IMO.), one thing I wanted to point out is that Canadia is made up of PROVINCES and TERRITORIES unlike our Murican counter parts. Quebec as a province is a little different for sure, but most mostly around the fact that they speak français which is FRENCH. There should be no difference in gambling/taxes. In fact being a Quebec residence actually affords you more social credits come tax time. That being said... THE EVENT SAYS COSTUMES. I don't care that much about costumes. There has been a weapon skin that I've wanted to have NC develop for the longest time. Do weapon skins count towards this event? @Cyan pika?

We had wings already, so next one would be weapons. The last time we had one was for weapons, I think, pistols for Gunners back in 4.0, unless those came from Korea.

This is main costume (I assume a one piece that covers all body skins) and a head piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, since a lot of what you said about Quebec is incorrect, including the language (in the larger cities around 1 million identify as English speakers, plus other cultures, so it's multicultural) , gambling laws and taxes.- social credits ?? - we we pay some of the highest taxes in NA. Get the pleasure of writing 2 tax returns as well - we also follow the Napoleonic code in the provincial courts (the French civil code) not the British civil code used elsewhere in Canada. All of this to say that there's a good reason for certain exceptions to contents, gambling, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also the separate issue of not being able to draw, any design I submit would probably win the prize for skin that you'd dress your alt in to craft ...
