Well, it is currently 9:30PM friday night here in Hawaii. The event is now only 17 hours away. Living right across the street from the internet cafe this is being held at, my ass is guaranteed to be there.
I'm not sure if anyone else here is from Hawaii, or is going to the event, but I will add info about what went down after I return.
Wish me a good time, and wish me good luck with the boss battle bash event. ^_^
I'll do my best to try and get some pics, but I first gotta see what kind of money I can scrounge up for a camera and development. If I do get any, they will definately be posted.
Stay tuned for info, and whatever other miscellanious crap I can get my grubby mitts on to put in this thread. ^_^

Well, Money wouldn't allow a camera, but some friends I've made at the boss battle bash have posted pics on their site.
I'm linking them to keep from blasting their bandwidth.

As for what I left with, all taru marathon particpants were given a brady atlas (I'm verry happy I didn't pay money for this thing...) and a Dear Friends book. I also recieved a T-Shirt, mousepad, and a CoP poster I had autographed by Yasu Takugawa.
Dispite now winning the CoP PC tower, I had an amazing time. I met many Allakhazam members for lunch before the event, and had dinner with my Boss Battle team afterwards.
As the tour continues, I'd highly suggest checking it out if you have the chance.

wow that looks like a ton of fun, is there a tour listing thing somewhere?

I don't believe there's a tour listing. On the Honolulu Star Bulliten's (local newspaper) website, they asked the FFXI team about future tour stops, and they responded that there are no solid plans for where the next location will be.
