heartsofiron.fi competition: Win HOI3 / Suggestions we've received posted now here!

Background of the heartsofiron.fi community:
http://www.heartsofiron.fi is a totally free community maintained by Hearts of Iron (and other Paradox title) fans. It is a non-commercial community and this is the basis for this competition. Because we are a non-profit organization and recent advertise incomes exceeded our server costs, we decided to use the few extra euros to buy & give out Hearts of Iron 3 games to our members. By finnish laws organization such as heartsofiron.fi cannot do any profit whatsoever. We want to promote the Hearts of Iron game series and in addition we get new members for our multiplayer community (heartsofiron.fi is primarily meant as a "home base" for finnish Hearts of Iron multiplayer games). And also we want to bring the game series that we love so much out into the public. We have posted information about our competition also into all major finnish gaming sites.

Restrictions:
Unfortunately we have a lot of members that speak only finnish, so this competition has to be restricted into finnish language only. The competition involves writing ideas, suggestions and stories about Hearts of Iron 3 in finnish.

The competition:
In order to hand out our support to Paradox, we decided not to just draw out the game(s) to random people. Instead we will draw the winner from all the ideas, suggestions or improvement suggestions received. We will also translate the suggestions into english and send the selected ones here after receiving enough. Unfortunately we are a finnish community and we have a lot of people who speak only finnish. That is why we have to restrict the language to include finnish speaking people only.

The actual winner(s) will be selected closer to the games release, so there is plenty of time to take part. But the sooner we get ideas and suggestions, the faster we can provide all this to the forums and Paradox.

Very, very, very pointless indeed.
Why do you find this pointless? You dont speak finnish?

We couldnt figure out any better way to thank our community.

Or do you think providing feedback is pointless?

What were you referring to?


BTW: What was that "spam warning" referring to? I hope not our site, because the disclaimer at the competition clearly says that no information will be passed forward and no e-mail will be sent to the people taking part, not taking into count an e-mail to the winner(s) (one e-mail notifying they have won).

i think it would be nice to get a free hoi3! would't you? so why would it be pointless? if someone wants to give a free copy to someone fore ideas, than why would it be so bad to have the ability to maby get something fore something so simple. and on the other hand it recruits more members to the finnish community that in turn make use fore paradox, since they get more fans, more buyers of their games. so what is wrong, spammy and pointless about that?

EDIT: and since paradox dosen't have a Finnish language forum here, we made one of our own, so that mean that this represents the finnish speakers. paradox have forums for others and competitons/events here are up to them! and you can still participate but then it would be in finnish.
