BOO, transcribed.

Dear Valued Customer [eww - i hate emails that start this way],
During our ticket request phase, there was a great deal of demand for tickets to the London 2012 Olympic Games, resulting in some oversubscribed sessions. As such we employed a ballot system, observed by one of the six global audit firms, to allocate the requested tickets that were oversubscribed, including those in your request. Please understand that the London Organizing Committee is the entity that decides the allocation of tickets amongst the various countries, and we simply act as an agent to sell what is allocated.
Based on the results of the ballot, we regret to inform you that your Ticket Request was not confirmed for any tickets to the London 2012 Olympic Games...[lots more blah blah here that i skimmed]
