hi,

at the bottom it says it will only ship to america and canada, and we have to arrange someone else to send it out of america/canada. is that 'really' true or was it written for a joke.

and yesss goood luck everyone and i hope to win too (how unfortunate only five will be lucky)

i've only won these kind of things once in my entire life.

(on a side notr i have no dvd animes. i need some to put along side ps2 games.)

Damn, I'd love to enter that compo... but since I live here in Britain I can't even get a wiget in.
BUGGER BUGGER BUGGER!

Oh well, good luck to all those who enter. Cool

I've never won anything...um, ever, but I guess it can't hurt to try. So, entered! I'm a student (and therefore terminally broke), so winning this would be completely awesome. It kinda sucks to have to weigh groceries vs. dvds when it comes budget time. "Yeah, I can do without milk this week..."

I enter college next year, so I can see myself in this situation very soon... The prospect kinda scares me...

Good luck, everyone! I'm almost wishing I hadn't entered now, because I'm just slimming the chances for someone poor-er than me... Embarassed

can't wait for the winners to be announced -- even though i know better and shouldn't get my hopes up -- but still...

goodluck to all who are fortunate enough to live within the US or Canada as the rules dictate.

Them's the rules, it wasn't written as a joke. It's there to protect our sponsors from having to pay an obscene amount of shipping. Most of our sponsors are also only active in the North American market, so they want to make people in that market happy.

If a UK address wins, I leave it up to Funimation to decide whether or not they are willing to ship it to the UK. So they might make an exception, but that choice is theirs.

If only the company can reach out here in the Philippines. I hope Funimation would do their job on winning entries outside Canada and US. I hope the best of it!
