Uh, I'm trying to sign up for the game, and when asking for location on the sign-up form, it only lists US states. Can non-US residents like myself just leave that option, or is there a non-US version of the game?

The game rules and conditions, specify only US.

However I do not think they do any checking on this, since they do not ask for detailed informaiton. However I Willnot advise you on what to do.

I'm from Puerto Rico and I've tried out the game a few times. I just chose a random state and I was able to play it without any problems.

This isn't the only case of US bias; the internet video services for both Cartoon Network and Adult Swim are US-only. Certain idiots at CN apparently want to alienate their international fanbase.

Be thankful that you can at least get past this through harmless falsification.

I think there's some legal an/or business reason for doing it because I've run across non-US stations (i.e. BBC3) that won't show videos outside the UK
