Skit. Two actors. Characters are WGT Hoi Poloi and WGT Lackey. (Just poking ya in the ribs WGT. No offense intended. :^)
HP: How are sales of the new Legend only balls going?
L: Not bad but...
HP: But -what?
L: Well, they'd probably sell better if they were actually a better ball than their non Legend counterparts.
HP: Not better?
L: Not much and many are less durable at a higher price.
HP: Whose bright idea was that?
L: Um. Sort of .... Yours. You did tell the team to maximize profit. Taking some durability off seemed like a good idea.
HP: (Glares) Anything else?
L: The legend balls can't be gifted.
HP: What? Why would we throw away a revenue source like that?
L: Apparently it was a program error when they were introduced.
HP: Hmm. Get the programmers on both these problems. ASAP.
L: They’re really busy with Uneven Lies, sir.
HP: Uneven Lies. Now there’s a good idea gone wrong. We originally thought it would generate revenue from additional lost balls, without cranking up the VEM for the umpteenth time. Released it too soon. Such a poor representation.
Is anyone still playing it?
L: Very few. We suspect that they are closet masochists.
HP: I’ll discuss it with the board. Type me up a summary of this conversation. We really must make the game more FUN and more PROFITABLE.
