Story : Fishing for Silver

Yesterday , I was at the arcade trying to fish some Silver or even Gold. Check the situation....Gold had all been taken...left only silver...but have to wait for some time. I'm aiming @ a silver card - Crushing Moon as i don't have this card yet since its just my 3rd day playing version 3. Very less customer , so noone play @ machine ...Crushing Moon is still long way to go...maybe have to wait tomorrow...but hey, upon checking the sequence, another 2 machines is going to have silver coming soon..maybe 1 hours time ?

I don't want to waste time rush to another nearby arcade to look see. Wow...no customer at all ! I get to know its deck B but bald eagle had already been taken..there is Crushing Moon along the deck...coming SOON...its the number #9 card. First 8 are all normal card. I think to myself " 9 x $2 = $18 ..wow...just wait people play 1st lah...save $$" So , i just wait there

5 minutes later, 1 big family come along with a small boy, there is grandpa, granma and his mother. Both the grandparents try their luck @ the sweet catching machine , while the mother play animla kaiser with her boy , I go queue behind him

"haha . ...the most he play is few games...then i pay less to take the silver crusging moon loh.." I thinking to myself this evil scheme. After playing for 2 games ,another small boy come along and want to play animal kaiser.

I ask this boy " How many games you want play ?"
"Three" ..he reply show a three with his fingers

"haha...save $6....again..lala...." my evil mind thinking within myself

"ok , boy , uncle let you play 1st for 3 games after that boy ok ?" i told him
"Ok"..he was happy

Time passed...the 1st boy still playing....its already 3rd game ..he play as if he never wants to stop. I become panic...i start to pretend and talk to the 2nd boy who is still queueing up....asking him to wait patiently , his turn is coming soon...etc

The 1st boy mother heard and smile, saying that she not going to play very long. Then she swap the Timezone card 3 more times...that means they will play up to 6 games ...and with the 2nd boy 's 3 games....oh my god....there goes my crushing moon ! The 2nd boy will get this silver on his 3rd and last game.

Since i had promise him 3 games ,i just let him play and i go off quietly...
I wanted to bang my head to the wall...beacause only then i realise that this is timezone ...its 9 more cards ...so its only $9 to get that silver instead of $18 !! (my card was TOP up during the $50 to $50 promotion) ..so every game is half price !

Why i so blur still want to wait ??? Should have go play straight for the 9 games.

Quickly go back to the previous arcade , go to the 1st machine ...lucky...manage to grab the silver Swift blow card, Go to the other machine where silver (Black hole) is going to drop by 3 cards... A father & son was playing together and i saw the father put in 2 more credits.... there goes my silver blackhole again...*cry*

Go home take rest...

The next morning go back to the arcade again for the Crushing moon silver, it should be ready by now. Try out 1 card,,,check sequence....13 more card to get crushing moon ...wow !! this time no more half price as i'm @ Star factory using token...wait for 0.5hrs...still no customer....feeling frustated, go change coin token and wacked all 13....in the end spend $26 to get Silver crushing moon !

$9 for a crushing moon....don't want quicklygrab...end up fly away ...then now had to use $26 (3 times !!) to get the same card ...i am feeling very STUPID of myself...for all these hunting silver adventure...haha
