Good luck to those in the United States. I have to say it's a bit unfair though as they can enter everything yet us people that live in any other country, excluding America and normally the UK, can never seem to enter any of these competitions  .

Whenever there are restrictions based on location, this is because of outside forces and is completely and utterly out of our control. Whenever we can, we try to subsidise costs to make competitions international, but as we all use money from our own pockets to do so, this is not always possible. As I'm sure you can appreciate.

Well, you could launch a contest for everyone except US citizens in compensation for those US only contests from time to time. Or so?

also is tehre more than one winner? I'll answer it here, also, as I'm sure many more would like the answer. As entry to the contest is free, there are no additional charges for receiving the prize.  The winner will be notified by Private Message, and asked for a postage address, and the prize is sent to that address.
And yes, there will be several winners, at least one for each calendar. Quote:

You see, the thing is that we don't intentionally exclude people for the sake of it. As Emma previously said, shipping costs and things of that nature will always affect a few competitions, but we try our hardest not to let this have a significant effect... and so, on that note, if we're able to ship prizes worldwide, we wouldn't intentionally exclude a large number of members. That wouldn't be fair.
