It says in the T&C just above the entry button, it's for UK Residents only. i just stuck in the belfast postcode (BT11AA) instead. works for some freebies in the BA forum.

EA giving away three Crysis 2 Nano packs

Seems some gamers have become a little attached to their new copy of Crysis 2, pulling sickies from work, mitching off studies and missing appointments - sound familiar?

We want to hear your best excuse for getting out of a ‘Crysis’ and our three favourites will each pick up a Crysis 2 Nano pack. Plus we’ll be giving away some limited edition ‘Crysis Management’ Excuse Books for the top entries.

To enter sign into Twitter and tweet what event/appointment/deadline you missed through overplaying Crysis 2 (optional) and the excuse you used to rectify the situation.

All entries/tweets must contain the hashtag #CrysisManagement – entries not in accordance with these instructions are invalid and will not be entered into the competition.

There is no limit to the number of entries that can be tweeted/submitted by an individual. Entries will be judged on originality, creativity and humour. The best excuses as deemed by EA™ will be shortlisted. Winners will be selected at random from this shortlist.

The closing date and time for receipt of entries is Thursday 28 April 2011 at 23:59 GMT. Top tweets win - good luck!

Read our terms and conditions.

Says UK residents but I always enter them anyways just in case it's an oversight!

I know man sites like yours, Click and TGL are excellent Irish sites but not many people bother with them even when they are giving away free games, its boggling! Only reason I didn't enter your 3rd comp was cuz I didn't want Tiger for the Wii and I don't like entering comps to win games when I don't own the console. Not fair on the people who genuinely want them. I'll gladly enter yer next comp anyway

As the Lotto says 'ya gotta be in it to win it!' I'm a fan of Clickonline.com and Gameswap.ie on Facebook. Both of these have had recent competitions. I see it in my updates, enter either through facebook or email and there you have it. The gameswap one was baffling, giving away games and no one will enter :eek:. I mean even if you didn't have interest in that game, you could get good trade in value. I'm in another competition on Click for an Xperia Play phone, would love that! They have another competition for Green Hornet at the moment but not pushed with that so will leave it to someone else

Jerichoholic · 03-05-2011 2:40pm

I was hoping to win Shift 2, but Tiger 12 and an xperia play will just have to do.
