Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h Here is one of the stories about working at Epic Games I always wanted to tell. 1 *The Murder Cake* (it's a thread) O 17 t 269 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h It was an average Friday, the 13th. The Epic Games Store team was busy shipping Borderlands 3, which turned out to be one of the year's biggest games, amidst very vocal criticism and even threats from concerned gamers. O 1 27 2 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h Also, "Congrats", c'mon! Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin 16h Right around lunch, a person from the reception desk delivered a gift for the store team that became suspicious the more we looked at it - a cake. O 1 22 1 ❤ 181 22,3 mil It reminded me of a Ukrainian funeral cake. O 2 27 1 ♡ 167 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin - 16h It had no card. It wasn't addressed to anyone, not even the store team - just to Epic. It was anonymous. It had the text "Congrats on the Boarderlands 3 Release!". That's right, "Boarderlands", in a font clearly not approved by anyone even remotely related to Borderlands 3. Q 1 27 1 ❤ 184 21,4 mil ❤ 2.030 27 1 ❤ 200 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin - 16h Our contact at Gearbox said the same thing, essentially, but with more passion. O 1 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h We ran downstairs to catch the delivery person. He just shrugged - it was from a bakery, and he had no idea who ordered it. Our BizDev team pinged folks at Take-Two - they haven't heard anything about the cake and were very busy working on the game's launch, thank you. Q 1 27 1 ♡ 174 2 20 Chris Donahue @chrisdon99 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin 16h We joked about calling the police or the bomb squad. We looked at each other - smiling but visibly unsettled. Everyone was hungry, and the cake looked delicious. It was so moist you could feel it even without cutting a piece. Its smell was magnificent. Q 1 22 1 27 1 12 ♡ 161 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin - 16h It was delicious. O 2 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h ♡ 166 27 1 t 10 201,8 mil 204 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin 16h Time passed. We tried to keep working without glancing at the cake as it sat in the middle of the room. Everything smelled like chocolate and vanilla. Q 1 ♡ 175 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h I decided that I was trying to lose weight. A person beside me chuckled nervously and told everyone they were not hungry either. Someone threw around the Murder Cake name, and it stuck. Q 1 27 1 ♡ 174 22,5 mil ♡ 274 ₁20,5 mil Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h People from other rooms that were less critical to our company's survival were invited for the celebration and cake, but upon hearing its story, turned out not to be very hungry either. A surprising number of them were dieting, too. 1 ♡ 191 ♡ 188 20 mil ♡ 231 Still not dead 9:47 p. m. - 3 oct. 2023 - 1.153 Reproducciones 19,4 mil il 19,3 mil Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin - 16h As he wasn't dying, he was getting increasingly relaxed, and we joked about the whole ordeal. Everyone laughed about the stupid thing, but no one else took a bite. O 1 27 1 ♡ 759 16 ₁18,9 mil Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin . 16h Two more hours later, we decided it was too late to save Chris, and we might as well follow him, so we all ate the damn cake. Q 1 27 1 ♡ 221 Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin. 16h Two hours in, Chris Donahue, Take-Two's account manager and the team's most experienced biz dev person, stood up, a knife in his hand. "Tell my family I love them," he quipped as he cut a piece and quickly ate it. We had no time to stop him. O 2 17 3 18,9 mil 18,5 mil Sergiy Galyonkin @galyonkin 16h No one followed him. We asked him if his decision was motivated by smell, and he said it was, but we knew he was taking one for the team. So we watched him for another hour.
