Q u o t e:

Q: Why can't players from all countries participate in your contests?
A: Unfortunately there are restrictions outside our control that apply to contests of this kind, and we as well as our sponsors have to abide by the laws and regulations of the different countries in Europe. Some restrictions apply due to the value of the prizes, some due to the nature of the contest - wherein the definition of "game of chance" is a tricky one. We do our best to work with (or around) this and adapt our contests to the different regulations, but we will not gamble with the law and must therefore exclude some countries from our contests. We will continue to adapt our contests, gather additional information and look into the fine details of national lottery and contest laws to try include as many countries as possible in the future.

Q: Why can people who don't play the game participate?
A: Requiring that participants own the game is in some countries defined as a promotional contest, i.e. a contest encouraging you to buy the product to be able to win. The rules for such contests are very strict. Between excluding more countries from our contests and allowing people not playing the game to participate, we usually choose the latter.
