I'll put it this way, we stream our games live and have a viewer base of about 2000 people each time, and a few of us (including myself) get to make some cash from it.
But people played so badly the last few days we've lost a tonne of viewers

Oh so it's their job, well then they should be well able to do it!

I've no hangover

I wasnt drinking but the proverbial sh*t has hit the fan this morning here due to unsanctioned changes made on the systems last night and I might have a hangover by the end of it.. :mad:

Oh no TP not nice to face into on a friday.

It's a pain in the tits alright when someone decides to change things. The problem for my team wouldn't be that we'd be stumped with fixing it, we'll get flooded with a shíte load of calls about people complaining about their stuff not working anymore and we wouldn't have the slightest clue about what's going on.

got an easier Friday morning now meself, was meant to be in an hour long con call about a project for a tool we use in the call centre and it's been cancelled

Nope, exactly what I said to one of the lads 5 mins ago.. :rolleyes:

Ahh sure what can you do!

Thats how we figure out a lot of our stuff goes wrong,when customers ring or email about it.usually down to the developer putting something live when he's not meant to.

Same here. We have layers of monitoring but it doesnt always pick stuff up and its not until someone complains here that we find out

stupidusername

With us it wouldn't make sense to have things monitored like that,very little would go wrong if the developer would stop putting the test stuff live,the big arse

"it'll work, I know what I'm doing it'll be fine... sure it's not customer facing anyway..."

Ahh I've worked with a few of them and you make a point of putting very smug satisfied look on your face of "I told you to stop doing that" when you see them getting their a*s chewed by the boss for doing it

Yeah except ours has the unique ability to **** up customer facing stuff when having only changed admin stuff!

My Carbonara tasted nice but it was a pain cooking it - will get it better next time re: timing

Hope you're all lookin forwards to the weekend??

Wait a second......

Nope it wasn't you who put up the recipe in the Cooking Club forum - so happy I found that forum after so long - some cracking recipes there.

I'm looking forwards to cooking it again seeing as I know now how to get the timing better.

Once I get it pretty much nailed on, I'll move onto a different dish
