Maybe they could have implemented sponsorship tokens for winter ship discounts instead or possibly fix tides of ice so it gives better rewards...heaven forbid...

While it is not the sponsorship tokens, the patch notes did say this:
Updates made to the discounts for the Breen Chell Grett Warship and the Breen Plesh Brek Raider to resolve issues where some players could not receive discounts for these ships.
In order to have this discount of 40 Autographs applied to the account for these projects, log in with a captain which owns one of the above Breen ships.
The account wide discount for the winter project which unlocks that ship will then be applied.
Players should see a message appear on their screen and in the chat window saying the account wide discount has been unlocked.
If the discount is not immediately applied upon logging in, speak with Q during the Winter Event and transfer to another map.
The text for the discounted winter project for these ships may still state the player needs 1000 autographs but the amount needed to contribute when slotted will state 40.

It's about time, good. They could have easily avoided this discount fiasco by implementing a sponsorship system for the ship discounts in early December. They already have the tech set up for the reps so how hard would it have been to create an equivalent one for the ship projects? Well, I'm glad people will finally get their discount.
noooo!!!! Now how am I supposed to knock down bunny-hoppers (of the opposite faction) doing fast and flurrious,?
Summon your non-combat pet and maybe a consumable pet if possible and dance along the route as a 2-3 object obstacle, which will really only TRIBBLE off the non-hoppers having to go around you while the hoppers just go over you or your pet.
And the more your group up with others to turn the race into an impromptu obstacle course hoping to get in the way of some hopper's path, the more you get flak from the non-jumpers who have to deal with it.
Otherwise, just impotently rage at things you cannot control. Which will probably not do you any good, nor be good for your health.
Disclaimer: I don't participate in that racing event, nor do I condone actually causing problems for any participants. However, I do not try to control things I cannot control either, like the actions of others.
Other than 1 youtube vid I have yet to see anyone do the bunny hop thing.
I hadn't seen it myself, until about a week ago, now I see it frequently. One guy, on winning, msg'd me and said 'how does it feel to be beaten by a lvl12"

That was crass. How much you wanna bet it was a low level alt of some veteran player?

So you are complaining that you can't disrupt other people in races?
Sorry, but I have trouble finding sympathy for that.
