Uh oh.

Microsoft says those in attendance "will have a chance to be among the first in the world to have hands-on play with the final version of Halo 2 multiplayer."

"will have a chance to be among the first"
"will have a chance"
"a chance"

Hmm. It sounds as if not everyone is going to get to play. Let the rioting commence! Confused

Sorry...couldn't resist:

That looks like a BLUE Badge. I don't think that Blue Badge gives you clearance to be in this Section.

You could read it that way, but that's not how I read it.

"Chance" can also just mean "opportunity". Chance doesn't have to imply uncertainty, it can simply mean doing something that otherwise couldn't have been done.

Examples:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm glad that I have the chance to speak to you today." (there's no uncertainty about speaking to them)

"I made the right decision going to Washington, because I got the chance to see the White House." (there was no uncertainty about getting to see the White House)

Now, however, it appears ilovebees.com might--might--actually have some concrete information on an actual Halo 2 event. On Sunday, the site posted a farewell message from "Melissa," the woman who apparently orchestrated the whole ARG.


inside info about lanyards and all, the press is still missing a few details Smile

He took a few freedoms and embelishements, but did a really nice job I'd say.
