  • Cosmetic Grade Magic 8 Ball

    Posted by Bobzchemist on March 3, 2014 at 3:28 pm

    Mark brought up a great idea - a “Cosmetic Grade” Magic 8 Ball.

    The original Magic 8 Ball had 20 answers:
    ● It is certain
    ● It is decidedly so
    ● Without a doubt
    ● Yes definitely
    ● You may rely on it
    ● As I see it, yes
    ● Most likely
    ● Outlook good
    ● Yes
    ● Signs point to yes
    ● Reply hazy try again
    ● Ask again later
    ● Better not tell you now
    ● Cannot predict now
    ● Concentrate and ask again
    ● Don’t count on it
    ● My reply is no
    ● My sources say no
    ● Outlook not so good
    ● Very doubtful
    I want to have twenty “cosmetic” answers. So far I have ten:
    ● Pilot batch PASS
    ● Micro PASS
    ● Stability PASS
    ● Marketing says YES
    ● Marketing says MAYBE
    ● Marketing says TRY AGAIN
    ● Marketing says NO
    ● Pilot batch FAIL
    ● Micro FAIL
    ● Stability FAIL

    Any suggestions?

    • Customer changes the brief

    in fact it happens so often that you could fill two or three slots with that answer

    Client gets pricing, go back 4 spaces and reformulate.
