I need to comment that in the aforementioned examples, there is an ambiguity. Someone says something along the lines of "while this happens" and continues by "I will participate". It does not specify that "he will participate to THAT event".
I'm not so sure about that. Okrand said "It generally is in a phrase following a phrase saying what the subject of jeS is participating in." So when a person says "I participate" after mentioning an event, at least in Klingon it's quite clear. Also in english, when a person says "There's a comic con tonight. I am going." Nobody would wonder where he is going to (unless he want to behave as a smartass). tugh qaS qepHom'a'. bIjeS'a'?
