Sir

The Mandalorians will gladly participate in this event.

I shall send 20 million credits, and if you can assign me the ticket numbers, that amount will hopefully cover the cost of the attendance of all our members, at least those who are likely to show.

Please advise if this is a alcohol-licenced event. My pilots are all drunks.

Please advise if that is arrangement is not satisfactory.

Regards,

Mandalore Bishop

William,

Consider yourself advised, and thanked in advance.

Would you like those 20 at random, or right off the reel?

We don't mind a bit of impaired piloting, unless you start running over the odd Scrubby herd..

First: You've got a picture in there that's 800x286 pixels. The maximum signature size is 700x250.
Second: Your other picture in the rotation fills the full 700x250 boundaries by itself.
With an image that big, you can't fit any text below it. Please fix this.

Ahh.. thank you, Shamus.
