Sorry, Roland, It will be great to have you host a leg of the series! It's difficult to keep track of as posts get buried in threads. Please let me and Peter know via PM what your current plans are.

You know Roland I can see you are upset, but it's clear the oversight was not intentional and a simple PM to Marc asking if you were being overlooked would have quickly sorted the problem. Getting excited, upset and posting a sarcastic response on this thread is not really constructive or appropriate.

I unfortunately could not field a car or a track this go around so I hesitate to even try to mediate here, but it seems we've made a mountain out of a mole hill. I am sure the organizers would love to have your participation, but I don't feel like they should be tripping over themselves to make ammends for a percieved & unintentional slight. Honestly because of the language/grammar difference, I had to read the post a few times over the course of two days, before I understood exactly what was going on and that you were more upset then usual!

Give yourself a day or two to cool off and then let the organisors know "I am in" or "I am out"

Simple, there's been enough drama already, right?

[Datto]

It was an oversight on my part Roland, I cop to that freely. I was in the thick of getting cars packed up, clearing away the track to begin my work-week, I neglected to re-check the schedule. So please reconsider for a day or two and let us know if you'd like to host. If not, that's fine, if you would like to host an event, that would be great.

"
One last word - in the 32nd scale section they created a special thread for proxies. If we had one here, too, where only the facts were fixed, no discussions at all, such things wouldn´t happen and keeping track of the important things would be much easier. "

That is a good idea as It is sometimes hard to wade through a bunch of comments to get to the meat of things. :)
