(Phone rings in QA)

Marketing: "Hey Mort, this is Dil in Marketing, did you get the latest Patch to test yet?"

Mort: "Sure did, I ran the executable and it installed in the right folders."

Dil: "Great! Then I can announce the release and get it rolled out on the servers."

Mort: "Shouldn't I run the game and see if it works and that nothing breaks?"

Dil: "Look, the press release that we wrote up here, says that the following are corrected. That should be good enough. And if there are any little probs, another patch down the road will take care
    of it."


Feel free to write your own scenarios or expand on this.

Mort - I found a bug!

Dil - It is by design; if you keep reporting bugs we'll have to replace you.

Mort - But it doesn't work!

Dil - This is a modern company; we rely on our fans to create third-party work-arounds for perceived bugs.

Mort: We need more time to find bugs! I haven't even tested all the romances yet.

Dil: Look Mort, we have a deadline. We used the same formula in all the romances. If some are working, the rest should work as well.

Mort: Fine. Don't come crying to me if you find your sex scene is with the Broodmother!

Customer Support: Hey! We are getting a ton of complaints about our latest patch. What can we do about this?

Marketing: I'll get a tech down there to set up a re-direct for those complaints to Bit Bucket.
