I don't think so. I read it somewhere and then tried signing up anyway and United States wasn't one of the options under "country"

I'm not sure.
It would be weird if they didn't let people in america join or enter the competition seeing as it is a .com website not .co.uk.
and wow!
The first time i've seen someone on the same time as me!

Hey guys...

Unfortunately, we've had to limit this competition to the UK and Ire, but it's honestly not out fault...

The competition is not restricted. The publishing rights are. We'd be delighted to work with Hyperion if they were willing to give us proof copies for the US market, but we are not legally allowed to distribute UK copies in America.

You can contact Hyperion here if you'd like to complain:

But... Sending prizes isn't exactly "publishing", is it?

I suppose... so it's the GOVERNMENTS FAULT! Dumb laws...*shakes fist angrily* sigh... oh well...

Anyway, I've got amazing hints. Palindromes are numbers or words that are written the same way backwards and forwards like... "Hannah" and oh saaaay... "2002"...

And the one in a different language... that's french (just in case you didn't know). Translated it says "Letter of information. Twelve less in the past" sneaky sneaky... Unfortunately we don't know what the twelve less is... could be years, months, days, weeks, minutes, hours, seconds. Though I'm very sure you can rule out the last two...

And the third one I figured out was the written evidence of what's to come... I'm not sure how to hint at that one without completely giving it out...
There're my hints, use them wisely. Have fun you lucky people from Ireland and the UK.

Someone's on the ball... :P Don't forget to work out the ones for EC.com... there's three on each, ok?

They're a HELL of a lot harder than ours.
