I've come to realize your average goat is not a sufficient sacrifice for ensuring the Exchange server rebuild goes smoothly.

Any suggestion as to what I should be offering to the gods?

Did you call the two lawyers and Anglican bishop?

You could always use the ancient technique of threatening the gods. Try telling them that if the rebuild doesn't go smoothly, you'll execute some of your customers in their name and let them deal with them in the afterlife.

Two problems solved with one action. >:D

Well I would advise against "the users", since you *really* don't want to see what happens when the tentacled horror that is sExchange sWerver meets (l)user blood...

Perhaps you need a goat that is above average? Are you sure your goat is a virgin?

A wreathe woven with CAT5 and hope? Placed on an altar of dead cases arranged with LED candles?

Could always try lusers, though!

The blood of the firstborn child of your CTO *might* suffice...

Bull brains and chicken entrails. Works every time.

What version of exchange???

Goats work for 2000.

9 cocks and prayers to dark gods are more successful for 2003.

Ocasionally Linix users or stuffed penguins ;-)

Well, this is only a +2 to your success roll, but I have a computer voodoo doll that I swear by (and boy do I swear).

Just remember, the black pins stop problems, and the white pins cause them... or have I got that wrong?

I always thought goats were for SCSI drives...

You need an old priest and a young priest.

You must sacrifice the blood of a virgin.

Stop by your local game store; you'll find an assortment of virgins playing Magic: The Gathering.

I always use the blood of the first (l)user who comes to me asking the following question:

(l)user: What does this mean?

Young virgins? Um, young, geek virgins?

An Exchange server?

Your soul. For Exchange, nothing less will suffice.

[coyoteden.livejournal.com]

I fear you may be right.

I'd suggest either a hecatomb of users, or a squad of windows developers. If you need any of the latter, I can certainly supply them.

You'll need a young priest and an old priest.
