While the sentiment is funny, please don't be that guy 
Seriously though, I feel that respecting your employer's/customer's schedules and deadline is equally important to them respecting your private free time.
Making extra hours is fine, as long as it's very temporary, for a good cause, paid and appreciated.
When all is well, it's perfectly balanced, as all things should be

Sorry, was just joking, I do not overwork people! ^_^

Congratulations!!!
I remember a few good games of EA on C64 (Chessmaster and Where in ... is Carmen Sandiego are the two I most played probably)
The most 'modern' game I played from EA was Medal of Honor...

well.. right now.. playing Mass Effect Remastered!
It just happened to be published by EA, what a coincidence, hey?!

Hey! I wasn't aware that the Carmen Sandiego games were EA. I am not a gamer but I bought them for my kids way back then (now they have their own kids of that age). They enjoyed them enormously and I enjoyed playing with them. They still speak of them and of the geographical or historical facts they remember because of those games.

Congratulations To you and the company for your good news and their good fortune.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Awesome.
I, for one, am looking forward to games that make plenty of use for async enumerables on observable events.

Well done, you're the first one to take note of that!

Any chance you can sort it out?
I "play" Fifa... it's the most painful game I have ever played. Most of which has came since they introduced Frostbite.
Why do I keep playing it? because EA hold a monopoly on football games.
Not to mention the micro-transactions... gambling for kids... what a company

it's a long shot.. but I'll do my best!  
My first job, apparently, might be to help some sort tiny part of a game editor! That might help!

Well, morally right or wrong... it certainly sounds interesting.
I hope you will keep us updated with how you get on. It would be great to hear some stories about the inner workings of EA. Obviously nothing that would get you in trouble, but just things like how they separate features and workloads, etc. My assumption for a place like that is that it's very micro-managed - I could easily imaging 10 people all working on the same line of code!
