Good call. I copy Teddy FBI's response and hopefully this thread will die a quick death:

It baffles me that people still fall for these gimmick tournaments. Don't you realize that this isn't anything but a $600K guaranteed tournament in disguise? But wait -- it's actually far, far worse than any of their weekend $250 buyin tournaments, because you don't get to choose how you spend your 'winnings'. They just foist upon you the jet package or a Mercedes. So unless those things were on your 'to-buy' list anyway, this lack of prize choice is seriously -EV. Exactly the same scam they run with Party Steps -- someone pointed out that it's far smarter to "make your own Steps tournament", by starting at the 10+1 regular SNG and simply parlaying your winnings (if any) into the higher SNGs...far superior to Steps b/c you actually have the option of stopping (aka 'cashing out') at any stage.

This is not directed at the OP, but rather anyone who actually considers this a "cool' promotion. It's a sucker's bet. You're far, far better off playing in any of their weekend $500 - $700K guaranteed tournies.
