It is about those contests! Almost all countreys in Europe that have WoW can join in contest but we from the Netherlands can't join and about that i'm really pissed! Why are we treated like that we don't have WoW. For example take Luxembourg, That countrey is, what would it be, 50 times smaller then the Netherlands But they can join! Belgium, in the past it was a part of The Netherlands and they can join but we? Noooo we Dutch people can't join and why? we got WoW, we play it as much as other countreys, we also pay for it, we have many fansites and fans of course, So why can't we from the Netherlands join in the contests? It is so unfair! Dutch people also like to have a place in the beta of WoW The Burning Crusade, we also like special Blizzard and WoW stuff! I play this game from the beginning i have never complained before on Blizzard i have always loved the game i have been always satisfied about the performence and qaulity of WoW. I have even never conmplained about Lag Central (Ironforge) so this is the first complaining about Blizzard and i hope that Blizzard those who have worked hard to make us happy with WoW, also make me even happier by putting the Netherlands on the lst of contestends. Maybe you can't do this but atleast give me a message if it is possible. Thank you.
BTW for those from Belgium and Luxembourg it's nothing personal.

This has been brought up by so many people, not just the Dutch, by the way.
We didn't sit around the table, throw darts at a map of Europe and decide to exclude The Netherlands just for the heck of it.
I understand your frustration, but our hands are metaphorically 'tied'..

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.
You have to blame minister Donner instead of Blizzard, since he arranged the law and gave a licence to Holland Casino only.
And what he said.
