    It’s funny how everyone’s so quick to cry to kabam but none of you checked your own laws to see if that might be the problem.
    But I’ll save you the effort, it is your countries laws that are the problem.
    DNA3000 mentions a few of the countries and the laws stopping them from being included on the 2nd page.

    I speak for myself and my country. Italy is one of these countries? Please, stop putting all of us in the same pan.
    Italy is one of the most important country in the world (even for the bad things i know :D ) and there is a law that stop videogames tournaments? I don't think so. We're european champions of PES for example.
    Do you know what is funny? It's funny that you use arrogant words to assert your idea, without informing you and considering each country different from the other. So no, Italy is not the problem and I think many of other countries are not. But it is kabam's choice.
    It is partially Kabam's choice. They made a choice to not go through all the hassle of abiding by your country's rules. That's a reasonable choice. It's not particularly fair, but it's not at all unreasonable. Why should Kabam go through extra steps in one country when they could just go through one step in others?

    Complaining about this is kind of like complaining about how you could only get prizes from Kabam if you were at NYCC.

    at least let MSD compete. The kid won NYCC last year. #ageisjustanumber

    Well, age is just a number in the same sense your bank balance is just a number.
    exactly. So technically I'm correct.
    You're wrong, because people should face same rules. Being selective in applying them isn't a good way to go imo
    your missing my point. Techincally, ignoring everything else, I am correct. You are thinking too much about the connotation of things

    Since you’re being ignorant and arrogant, here’s the post I was referring too, so sit down, and look up the laws in your country.

    There were countries that restricted how you could advertise, when you could advertise, varied the definition of what a "material prize" was, and some even had specific laws that required prize awards to be monitored by a government agency (I believe Italy was one of those).

    He believes. When believe and be sure is the same thing?
    I didn't offend you so you don't do it. I just said don't talk arrogantly, but be civil, thank you.

    Just gonna add onto the bottom here, I googled Italian laws and while I can’t say either way whether the source was reputable, if it is and the info was correct, I don’t blame them for excluding Italy, one of the things mentioned was requiring an Italian someone or other to be present when the winners are picked (again I don’t know how reputable the source is), kinda hard with current world situation don’t you think?

    I quote you this sentence from an article.
    "The championship, organized by UEFA, was played remotely using the PES 2020 football simulation on the PlayStation 4. The winners were awarded a prize of 40,000 euros."

    As we read, it took place online, the prize was in money and all of it during quarantine, so sorry if my doubts about the laws that forbid kabam to let us Italians participate are more than legitimate. I'm asking for explanations, just it. If Kabam explain me their reason , but even if they don't it's ok, I deal with it. In Italy we say "ask is legit, answer is kind."

    Why do you have all this anger and frustration? Relax, your cholesterol rises.

    It is partially Kabam's choice. They made a choice to not go through all the hassle of abiding by your country's rules. That's a reasonable choice.

    Yes, it probably is. But like I said, I only ask, if they answer... good, I thank them.

    I’m not angry, just find it dumb for people to cry to kabam when I can guarantee kabam have looked at the relevant laws more than any one crying on this thread.

    That competition was sponsored by UEFA and the national UEFA organizations. You'd expect those organizations to have already fulfilled all the legal prerequisites necessary to hold a Euro-centric esports competition, given they are already, you know, a sports league.

    Hi. I would like to participate but I am from the Philippines. I have relatives in the US that can receive those items on my behalf if you allow me to participate. Is it possible? if registration would be a problem, I can use vpn and pick the state of my relatives in the US when I play.

    Makes sense. But when the items are shipped to your relative’s, then shipped to you, you might miss the deadline.

    Not to mention that there’s going to be only one winner and there’s a high chance no one speaking here asking for exceptions will win.
    Tell that to MegaSonicDude that already won one of their of the summoner showdown.
    There is a high chance that people who haven't been able to compete in the showdown due location is going to win it. You just watch and see.
