  Why are only some countries included in the sweepstakes, as in the february wolf creek challenge. Theres a lot of Australian members here, why can't WE have a chance at winning credits?

  I am not 100% certain but 2 reasons come to mind.

  1. your country's laws may prohibit it

  2. logistics of getting a prize there may be a problem

  Australian laws do not prohibit online gambling, gaming etc. We are legally allowed to pay for services and receive winnings from sports betting, poker sites etc etc.

  The logistics of adding in-game credits to a players account in Australia is surely no different to crediting an account in England, US or anywhere else in the world.

  Anyone else got a better reason???
