Thank you for your reply Eos.
'Participation is limited to the Nexon America / Global MapleStory service area'
So limited to North America and Canada, except for members of Southperry who registered before 2013, correct?

Canada is part of North America.
You left out the entirety of South America, Africa, Oceania, the middle east and probably a few I'm not thinking of.

Well... Canada is a part of North America. Plus, there's Oceania.
Edit : Ninja'ed by Eos.

I didn't know those were included. lol I never see those mentioned anywhere in "official" service region posts/announcements.

Well I got my code. Now I just need to get unbanned so I can start showing of the awesomeness that is the Chinchillin' Chair.

GMS works by exclusion, not inclusion.
Exclusion; Korea, Japan, China, Thailand, SEA, Europe, Hong Kong.

Yea sorry, didn't think about that I should ve known that Canada was a part of North America. And all those other places you mentioned that I didn't mention is because my friend can play & create MapleStory Global accounts in Brunei. And now that you mentioned all those other continents / countries I am thinking he is at Malaysia at the moment (he studies there). I know that Malaysia can't participate in this event. He didn't reply to me yet if he is in Malaysia or in Brunei.
Thanks Eos!

How do I get in contact with someone regarding this event? I need to speak to someone regarding them making me ineligible to participate. I entered one time with the email I used to make this account, never tried with another account or email, and only made this account to find out why in the world I've been restricted from participating. I went to do today's questions and was greeted with a "you've been disqualified" statement of some sort. Any help would be appreciated. Ty.

Okay nevermind

That would be impossible. I don't live with anyone else and I'm the only one on this computer. Y'all can be 100% assured that nobody else from this IP attempted to even go on Southperry, period. The only thing that happened that was strange was when I first attempted to answer the questions was this:
1. I put in my email address.
2. I answered the 5 questions and hit the button.
3. It refreshed the previous page, as though I had never answered the questions.
4. I realized the cookie handling for this site had the cookie blocked.
5. I went into the privacy settings and allowed cookies from southperry.
6. I put in my email again and answered the questions, getting 5/5 correct.
7. It told me gratz or w/e and to come back the next day.
8. I got on today and got "We're sorry, you have been determined inelligible for this contest based on prior participation or other criteria."
I didn't cheat, only used this one IP address, and there's nobody else here. Now I cannot participate unless I cheat. I could easily just proxy, change my IP, and use other email accounts, milking the event for chairs.
That's not what I'm trying to do. I just want to know why I was restricted from participating, and I assure you, there's NOBODY else here. Just me using one email address from the same IP. I in no way cheated and no one else used this IP to attempt to participate.

I'm sure as a former basil mod the appropriate response isn't; "Oh, well you guy's gimped me so I'm going to cheat because I have no other way". The cookie clearing/refresh may have triggered it, unfortunately my knowledge on what triggers said flag isn't known to me, or anyone else. You'll have to wait until Eos get's backed to you to either resolve the error or explain what you did wrong.

I have no intention of cheating, no worries. I'll gladly wait for a response from Eos. The cookie handling thing is the only thing I can figure that would have triggered it, but I assure you, I did nothing wrong. Using advance cookie handling procedures for sites is something I've always done. I never had a SouthPerry account before now, so there was never any reason to store a cookie from the site. I appreciate the response and look forward to having the situation rectified. Sorry if I seem annoyed, this is just the second time I've had another site's event mess up on me. When disqualified from HS's, I was literally told, "Why complain about the error? Why don't you just cheat? Geez!", to put my statement in more perspective. I have no intentions of cheating the system. I only created the account to avoid such actions. I didn't agree with HS when I was told that was the solution, and I don't agree with that as the solution now. Tyvm for your time.
@Eos above: I made this SP account after it wouldn't let me use my email today already, already saying I was disqualified, and haven't even once yet attempted to even do the event with this account. At all. I have only posted on this forum with this account, and it's made with the same email that told me I was already disqualified on. The yellow high-lighted portion of that doesn't apply to this situation. This SP account was never used to attempt the event, and was made after the email had already been disqualified for no reason. Again, I only made this SP account to speak with you guys about what's happened. I have not attempted to do the event with this account. At all. The message, "We're sorry, you have been determined inelligible for this contest based on prior participation or other criteria. ", was received earlier, before this account even existed.

Tyvm for your help. Idk what happened this morning. I didn't even have a SP account and it gave me that message. o.o
Anyway, your help has been much appreciated. =]
I'd much rather get an issue fixed like this than get told "well, just go cheat. Geez!"
+points for SP. Thanks again. ^_^

Thanks, Southperry staff!
