We'll also have two side voting contests on best still image and best video. There will be some freegraphics cards and a high end PC as prizes for those. If you live in Australia, you're not likely to be able to participate - your laws are real damn hard. We promise to do a contest just for Australia at some point though, because their laws are just that damn hard.

Not that I really care about the campaign or anything, but the above has made me curious. What Australian laws they're talking about... any ideas?

Its actually a very good trailer and you would understand that if you had a basic understanding of marketing.

Sure it doesnt reflect what eve is really like but its not trying to, its trying to get people who have never heard of eve to try it.

Very well derailed. But your inability to read a post and reply ON TOPIC aside.

Downtime scheduled during Aussie prime time.

No laws broken, CCP just hates us (v0v, we seem to be excluded from many competitions. Founded by criminals and such)
