    Unfortunately, we had to make the contest 21 and older ( ) and you have to live in the United States. Do you still fit into this description?

    I also can't enter because you only seem to have a way to enter via facebook or twitter!

    I do not use facebook and I refuse to use it ever as to twitter well what can I say I have no urge to be a twit.

    You have fourms and Ubi has its own website not like you can't make it so we can enter via one of these other places.
    If at first you don't succeed blame someone else!

    I agree with Morgan... I have no desire or plans to use Facebook or Twitter. However, if those are the conditions for the sweepstakes, then I'm okay with that as it is my choice then to not participate (by avoiding both sites). However, it would be nice to have the sweepstakes run through the game itself vs. a "third party site".

    zultani. trust me... sweepstakes, lotteries, etc that are "international" are a huge legal pain in the rear... so I'm sure that decision is a "legal" one! But I do agree that in game promotions should be set up so that all players are equally eligible. Or, as you indicated, have a giveaway that does not involve physical prizes (i.e. only prizes that are "in game"). I would be frustrated as well if there was an advertised sweepstakes for only residents outside the United States.
