- Hey team (FM boss talking to a speaking monkey chained to a computer), how's that update going? We're live next week! - Sorry boss, our two human programmers have left since their neighbors found out they were with the Monkeys and were forced out of town; we are late with the new cars. - Damn; those ungrateful players. How about taking an existing car and putting some stickers on them? A Lambo, like the one I have, but with stickers. Nice stickers. Or better, awful stickers, and many of them. And prevent the players from removing the stickers, too. Mwahahahaha! - Well, boss, players are not going to like it if we want them to spend hours playing to earn a car they already have. - Wait, you may be right. OK, pump up the specs; it's just a couple of numbers on a table, after all. And don't forget the stickers. - Roger, boss. You also said when you called me during Christmas eve that you had thought of a new way to screw up players that play WTTT to earn gold. - Right. Yes, we know that there are some people that cheat on some WTTT circuits, colliding to gain an advantage... - Wall-riding, boss. - Yeah, whatever. It's the same people earning lots of gold every week, and those who cheat and are smart about it also have lots of gold. Why not allowing that wall-riding so those that already have a lot of gold make even more, and those who really need it and don't even have a clue how to cheat don't earn any? Mwahahaha! - Very clever, your badness. I mean, boss. - Yes, I am evil. Mwaaaaaahahahaha! - Boss, players keep making noise about the cheaters, crashing newbies and race-killers on the online multiplayer tournaments. Should we do something about it? - What? And let honest people make gold? No way! They must buy the gold! By the way, did you already terminate the super-discounts on gold and changed that with lame 2x1 deals? - Yes, boss. - Good, good (rubs his hands). And did you reduce the x3 daily rewards to x2 for elite players? - Yes, boss. - OK, I think we are all set. - I see, boss. Just be aware that we will have a lot of tickets; our customer support monkeys in the zoo will have a huge workload and we don't have enough bananas. - Good point. OK, change the color template of the support center, remove the possibility to open tickets, and call it "new help center". - Very clever again, boss. - Yes, I'm a star, I know. Mwahahahaha! Mwaaaaahahahahaaa!. (Boss turns to a bald, muscular bodyguard wigh sunglasses) Brutus? - Yes, sir. - Whip these monkeys; the test team has reported that they haven't found any bugs in this update; this will teach these programming monkeys to not make it too easy for those players. - As you wish, boss. - And remind them of the stickers. I want stickers. - Noted, sir; stickers.
