This is pretty awesome. I followed it all day yesterday but it seems Team Vegas had much more luck than people in San Francisco~

I want to see photos/videos.....whatever~!

Ask, and you shall receive.

I gotta edit out a quick profanity out of our unboxing video, and then I'll Dropbox that sometime tomorrow morning.

Even though I'm a 360 gamer... the envy in my eyes is salivating into some sinister ****.

It looks like that copy of the game was effectively raped. And rightfully so.

Travis and Dillon did get everyone's e-mail and name down on a sheet of paper. I hope we all get some kind of bonus for making the effort to go down there.

This was so cool to read and cheer for others that had the chance to quest and enjoy. Conrats to all the winners and those that went for the ride. The journey sounded fun!

And based on reading Mel's Dad is easily the ME3 hero of the weekend! If not the launches!

Can't wait to see how the others go and hope the results are always fun and safe!

waiting 5 hours before they actually launched the balloon
no way to track it for another hour after that
drive 150 miles to a location where the balloon wasnt, even though the tracker said it was
new location!!...but no balloon there either
wandering the desert for hours on end searching for what isnt there
driving 150 miles back

yeah. Fun. 


But thats ok.....nobody is going to get the NYC balloon either:

If this does in fact drop in the ocean...i think its safe to say this little promotional stunt was a colossal failure.

I will be the one to find the London copy. Just hope I don't find the PS3 one, if I do, giving it to my friend.

massive congrats to everyone who snagged a copy, just did a little search for SHEPRD and NRMNDY and they both seem to be in the same places! Which is probably why Vegas went up with less copies, didn't want a repeat of SF with 20 copies being MIA.

Im thinking they're gonna launch it somewhere in upstate NY. Theres a good chance of it landing in the ocean if it was launched from NYC. Typical weather patterns travel from west to east and the widest part of NY state is up north. Still im hoping they launch somewhere on long island since thats where i am lol

edit: nevermind disregard what i said its early and the contest states city launch dates my bad...its early i just work up ha ha

No payload detected! I wonder if they'll be delaying it due to the high winds today.

Any idea where to look on that APRS map? It is pretty congested over NYC.

Upper right you'll see a nav bar (along the right side of the screen).  It's pretty small, so you might have to hunt a bit.

On the bar is a filter icon.  Click it.  Uncheck "All station", and select pretty much everything EXCEPT ships and Speed > 2.

That'll help a bunch.

Thanks.  I pretty much ignored that corner of the web site and assumed those symbols were part of an ad or something!

Have the same issue with my laptop/browser (but not my PC/browser). Same browser version, same settings...think it has to do with the way my laptop is locked down (it's a work laptop) and cookies.

They still haven't gotten anything going yet, right? It's not just me?

Not that I stand a chance. I'm way up in New England. I guess I can hope that the crazy winds today bring it to me. Hah.

Still, it's fun to watch.

Mine wouldn't ask me to re-enter the contest so I could make up a passcode, so I had to go to another browser entirely! That was chrome.
