    Does the "only US residents" apply to the LTS as well?

    OFFICIAL RULES:

    2. Only open to residents of the United States.

    That's a nice way to treat your non-US based players :(
    Definitely not an Arc User.

    Got 4 Entries
    Read the blog site posting, the Netgear Nighthawk Router and Switch page, and went to both Facebook pages

    I don't do Twitter.
    I don't stream at all. But I do watch Twitch streams sometimes, since I have Amazon Prime I could take advantage of it I guess...

    If I win it's mostly for the LTS, but the Router though, I already have a Nighthawk X6-R8000 ( better known as the dead 6 legged bug one), but would upgrade to the newer one maybe. Or give it to a friend. IDK.

    Pretty sure it is the whole competition. Still not surprised, getting used to being stitched up by these monkeys for not living in the US.

    Keep your router and LTS, as I am perfectly happy living in the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

    Come on, get a grip.

    You have an international product, but you are unable or unwilling to run competitions internationally. Hell, you can't even open it up to the same continent as the US.
    Star Trek Offline is currently online. We apologise for the convenience and are working to remedy the situation.

    When you complete all the requirements right before seeing the US-only rule...

    Was tempted to let my friends and family know about the offer, but it's been a while since I've chatted with my American cousins.... ;)

    I figure the router is US only because of shipping, but the LTS is digital. Thought maybe that's possible.

    I am sure they don't exclude the world because they are mean. It's either logistical or legal reasons but how that applies to the LTS I don't know.

    US only.. who has time for that TRIBBLE.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Its so unfear for every European Players that when cryptic and pwe host a competition the ar always for the US and not for the for the everybody in different countrys :(
  • tigerariestigeraries Member Posts: 3,492 Arc User
    max entry is 7. going back the next day does nothing.
  • locutusofcactuslocutusofcactus Member Posts: 651 Arc User
    Non US players: I hear you but sweepstakes prizes almost always have restrictions of this nature. This really isn't something that can be blamed on STO/Cryptic.
  • h29829282h29829282 Member Posts: 38 Arc User
    Been playing this game since it became free to play. I really hope I win this cause LTS would help me a lot. But I just want to say good luck to everyone that entered.

    Does anyone know when they are going to announce the winner?
  • tigerariestigeraries Member Posts: 3,492 Arc User
    also keep in mind of taxes... could be the taxes on the value of the prize is something they don't want to deal. easy work around is to put in a US address, use a family or friend you trust to forward you the prize if you win.
