You are not eligable for entry into HoNTour due to your local regulations.

They're giving you REAL money.

Hey Talesavo how´s Dota 2 :D?

On topic also wondering about the location issue.

Jareth

Why is the address an issue?

It's not as if S2 are going to send 'the boys' round whenever you insult them.

You most likely give out your address willy nilly whenever you buy something online anyway.

Also correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Paypal charge a percentage for money that passes through their system. Also I don't believe it works with every country.

You need to give more info on HoNtour. All we see is "Hontour announced" sticky threads and trailer videos but there's nowhere any real info on it.

How do the divisions work? What countries are eligible? What is the format of the tournament? What is the schedule? etc etc

Do agree with this. A friend asked me about it recently and I had difficulty describing it.

Best I could come up with was that it's like HonWars but directly set up by S2.

I am getting the message " You must specify your State/Province."

There is no field for this information though. Hjelp!
edit: I put my state on Address 2 and it accepted it.
You may want to rename this field.

There is a field for country right under address and when you select a country it creates a new box for state/province under the country.

What's up with these tournament things outside websites are running that don't tell you anything? So many questions left about this website, but none of them are answered. This seems like a massive joke, which I suppose given the game is fitting.

I'd prefer if Quebec was it's own country at this point, your myopic views on language really screw over the other 99% of the English speaking country. :(


We get to keep Montreal though.

Signed up only for 100 silver coins, didn't bother putting in real information because my country isn't accepted nor was I interested in being scammed.

This is due to extremely strict Quebec laws to do with competitions. You can read more here: http://contests.about.com/od/sweepstakes101/f/VoidinQuebec.htm?rd=1

I do not like sites where they ask tons of information that they do not need.

I register for HoN game and all they ask is an email, for hontour they need tons of other information. How come Honwars does not need to know your address ad telephone number? And yet give away prises?

THANK YOU.

You should work for s2…

they cant even build a form to fill out online? let alone this fail game…

Nidhogg
11-25-2011, 01:34 PM
The form actually has no key constraint/form code constraints. You can type in I hate Hon into the date of birth if you choose. Should really have cleaned it up, you know simple things like numericals only for MM/DD/YY (and not DD/MM/YY which is weird), setting the tab order to include the state drop-down menu if you select US, etc..

I was really looking forward to this but I live in Quebec so i'm screwed.

You should let us dodge our shitty laws and let us sign up with a paypal account.

By "often-used" you mean only in USA & Canada.

DD/MM/YYYY is used everywhere else.

Why isn't Estonia on the list? It can not be a legal issues since HonWars.com has Estonia listed. Fix it.
