ARG! can't spend $300+ to fly to any of these places from Idaho!!!!
Annoying to finally see what the "prize" for playing is and be unable to get to it.

Have fun, guys who can go. We expect word for word detail, hehe.
[Edit] So the purpose of this game is to be able to get on "the List" so you can jump ahead in line to play Halo 2? Fun stuff. Maybe it should be in MORE PLACES.

i can already tell this would be the coolest, once in a lifetime experience ever. I really do question the wisdom of scheduling it on a weekday though. I'm really far away from any of them, but on a weekend I just might be able to make it work.
To meet you all face to face and play some Halo 2... ugh I almost wish I'd never even seen this opportunity to tempt me.

Heres to hopeing that the training will be on Halo not Halo 2, as i can not go. by the way, it better not end this way, or i take back the idea of buying an Xbox just so i can play Halo 2. on the other hand if this is the darkness before the dawn, ill be thrilled again

I'm 16, and I live in Dallas, and I can't drive 3 hours to play a video game, no matter how much I want to! Stupid parents, making me be responsible... and theres the whole trimester exams on that date thing... and all region orchestra tryouts that day... stupid bungee...

Wow, sanfrancisco, on a thursday night!. horrible. I'm in los angeles, if it were friday night I could drive up there and participate no problem, but not thursday .
Let's hope we get some better hint as to how worthwhile this will be. if it's just halo 2, then meh, if it's something more special, then I can always use vacation time .

The "something more special" part for me is hanging out with a bunch of you beekeepers. I've loved this community, and I couldn't imagine how could it'd be to hang out with you guys for 3 hours...
Then again, it could completely ruin the brillant image I have of everyone...
