Question? Why is this facebook only? Some of us don't have facebook. You guys have a Google+ account (along with each brand having Google+ accounts), but never post using it. You also have twitter.
Is it possible to use all of the social media platforms and not just Facebook.

Finally a contest where there is only one entry per person. I never remember to enter multiple times so have the much of a lower chance to win.

I disagree. First, they're giving stuff away. Free. We have no right of access. Second, perhaps they are trying to test different vehicles for access, Twitter v. Facebook v. FT v. direct email, etc.
I think that a more appropriate response might have been, "Thanks, William!!"

I can't speak to your country specifically, but it's usually not SPG's personal choice dictating which countries are included. These types of contests aren't legal in many countries or if they are, they can be a huge pain. I know that's why Quebec is usually excluded.
So your issue is likely not with SPG.
