It's much like Tom's Hardware - competitions only in the States. I gave you my location. So why the h.. bother me with some (for me) useless competition?

Although I feel your pain what you and everyone else has to understand is that Asus has divisions and this is being run by Asus North America.
You get emails because you checked the box to get them.
No way for the program to distinguish between what you would like to see and what you don't.
Now if it's any consolation to you I'm in North America and I can't play either(staff) but I don't get mad about it.
It's just the rules and thats life my friend.
