Their finger slipped and accidentally coded a whole in-game ad delivery system.
You're not a programmer, right? You have no idea how often this happens!
Just the other day I accidently sleep coded an entire pop-up ad system and put it our automated delivery system tool so all customers know to buy stuff they don't need or want.
