Backstage Pass Contest - Clarified
We don't normally like to post the same news item twice, but this one deserves a double-post, because of the confusion. A couple of hours ago (but yesterday, by this site's clock), we announced a new contest in which Xbox Live subscribers would get a chance to win a 3 day/2 night trip to Bungie Studios to play Halo 2 before the rest of the world. Several threads immediately popped up on our forum, pointing out that while the sweepstakes page at Xbox.com states that "Twenty lucky winners from around the world (five in North America)" will be going to Redmond, the official rules page states that the contest is open only to "legal residents of the 50 United States, the District of Columbia, and Canada (except Quebec)". Residents of non-North American countries - fear not! Each country sending people will have its own sweepstakes page, with its own eligibility requirements and rules. Once they're all live, you'll be able to see whether you meet the requirements in your country - but for now, remember that the contest doesn't close until October 15, so there's plenty of time. Sorry for the confusion! (Louis Wu 00:00:01 UTC)
