18,500,000CR appeared in my account?

I'm quite a noob in ED and have been scraping around in a Sidewinder trying to earn my first 1000CR for a couple of hours a month since Christmas.
Last night I logged on and was very suprised to notice that 18,500,000CR had mysteriously appeared in my account!
Does anyone know how/why this happened?
I'm not complaining, by the way. [haha]
 
Probably a reward from a CG, if you participated in any of those. You must be very dedicated if you did that on a Sidewinder!
 
Did you take part in a Community Goal event two weeks ago by chance? Two weeks after a CG is over, if you haven't yet claimed your reward, it is automatically paid to your account.
 
18m is quite a lot to earn in a CG when flying a Sidey

Especially for a couple of hours a month. Probably just a support slip up, they are likely reimbursing cmdrs left right and center. Can you imagine how many no insurance tickets they see each week.

CG reward got automatically deposited. Probably. Go buy a cobra dude.

Maybe they're so inundated, that they've automated it. So the script looks for players who have played for a few months, now in a sidey with 1,000 creds.
 
They are getting you ready for E. D. part 2.4 where you can go to the commanders bar using your Holo-Me,
get wrecked on Lavian brandy, Orrerian Vicious Brew and Leesti evil juice and Lucas Onionhead,
loose all you credits on space poker,
sing rude space commander songs,
vomit over the local imperial navy officers in their nice clean suits,
thus getting into a bar room brawl,
spending the night with your local allied faction's representative (after all he/she/it [it is RNG] does keep a photo of you by their bed)
and then wake up in the station prison with only one testiculo and a flawed focus crystals where the other should be,
dried sour azure milk down the side of your face (at least that is what you hope it is)
sporting a tattoo of an elephants head such that your manhood sprouts where the elephants trunk should be,
and wearing a see-through pink negligee and thick metallic green lipstick
and your wrists chained to you ankles
in a cell full of space refinery workers who have just finished a 1 month shift with no breaks and who have had no contact with members of the opposite sex for their whole shift .

Congratulations! Spend it wisely. Credits will purchase ships and equipment but only skill will make them successful. Try some of the ships you would have normally upgraded to versus going for the most all at once. Each flies differently and adds to your skill level. Many have been severely disappointed taken on too much too soon.
