I'm used to it by now. 9/10 times PR is excluded from contests and shit like that.
Sometimes I hate living in Maryland

Become a state and then you can talk.
Silly PR's.
You sir, are a hideous hermaphroditical character which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.
But seriously, Maryland, WTF.
We were excluded from Gears too.
It's kind of hard to change status when Congress won't tell us what's allowed and what's not, or even endorse any effort to change.Originally Posted by bbobb
fifty+ years of Congressional "whatever" = me not being able to participate in cool contests.
I thought you guys voted against becoming a full state a few years back.

They voted for the status quo in a local plebiscite that wasn't endorsed by Congress, so it was meaningless. Congress has repeatedly said that the current commonwealth option isn't viable as a permanent solution, but it does nothing to finally resolve the issue. We can vote until the cows come home, but nothing will change unless Congress endorses the effort.
Get everyone to speak English and PR will be a state in no time. Until then the mainlanders will be irrationally threatened by the notion.
Lol, that's not going to happen anytime soon.
In fact, I sincerely doubt that statehood will happen at all. 97% of the population rejects independence, so I think we'll probably end up as an associated republic or something. The U.S. doesn't want a Spanish-speaking state, and people here aren't going to drop the language they've been speaking for 500 years to assimilate.
GTFOOM IMO
