Subject: Please guess what
Regards, ladies and gentlemen, and special greetings to all racing pilots.
I have to explain something to you, it seems. The race is canceled. Yes, it is a shame. But please:
[size=medium]Do not flame the organizer of this race here, please. It was more my fault than anyone else's.
[color=#FFFFFF]This race WILL happen! But it will be postponed, until i can promise a fair and really great race.
I was a fool in believing that this can become organized in a few lines of grouped comm channels.
To tell you the truth, it was neither good-thoughed nor well-thought on my end.
Both me and the organizer underestimated the lots of paperworks, that comes with such a great event.
In total, this is a bit frustrating, for all involved lads, gents and pilots, so i will pay 5 million credits to each registered pilot, for their inconveniences.
This is really my worst and most shameful moment here, but still: Better no race, than a race, which is not watched and thus not fair.
All in all, i have learned a lot, and try to make, organize and even pay a better championship!
..
I really hope, that you will forgive me, dear disappointed but honored racing pilots.
Always yours,
~William Frederick Cody

Cody, you shouldn't have to do that. It's not your fault it happened, and you shouldn't have to pay for it. It's just these other people are mad because they didn't get free money. Keep the money.

Everybody who was there saw that you were only trying to fix something that was already beyond fixing. So there is really no need to take the blame. Really. =)

No need to. There's no reason at all to be ashamed. Everyone's human.

I promise you, i will try to organize it better. I am too tired to start it right now, also it would be better to sleep first, and then re-think it.
I am sure, if such an event is well thought, i could be done.
But obviously, it is not that easy.
As i have learned a lot today, i will try to make it better the next time, to repeat myself.
All in all, meh!

Don't need to pay me anything. But it'd be nice to put on the list... I think you'll find my application on the 4th page.
Cheers.
Also, I'd like to thank my loyal fans and tell my wife I won't be home till after the race in fear of being forcefully hospitalised.

No need to. As I said: You tried to fix it. Considering the circumstances at the scene (after many sever restarts, too many undisciplined people, nonfunctional comms, stupid lulwut torpedo massmurder,...) you earn something like a Purple Heart medal... for getting hurt while trying to do something good.
