          For those who cannot share it using the 'Share' Button, I suggest you manually share it on your wall by copying the link and posting it on your profile. The main reason could be that your FB filters are set to high. Anyhow, just copy the contest page link and insert it in the 'link' part of your status.

          For the rest, thank you for joining and it another 8 days more! Good Luck!
