Have you been "Poisoned" by Animal Kaiser virus ?? (sequence / unopen decks)

"Some seller sell with principle. I have met some seller where money is secondary to them. They sell their extra cards, they make friends in the process and support the game.

Sad to say, some seller got no principle at all. Money is their prime motivation. They will sell you anything. That is when they will go all the way out to get the cards they want. That is when you will see arguments, conflicts and gossiping at the arcade.

Some people fish for cards by clearing the deck to get the cards that they need.
Others fish by getting others to clear the deck for them and then getting the cards they want. Often, they can even boost to one another that they only spend few games to get the gold cards. Is there real glory?

It is poison and i can see many already being addicted. You see many familar faces hanging around the AK machine during weekends. Their loved one tagging alone and their life evolve around their ak album and ak machine. The arcade becomes a national past time for them.

Sad ... but a very common sight.
It is like a phase, either you move on or you continue being played by the game instead of playing the game. "

"I should said that in the past, yes there are not many people having sequence, but these ppl having sequence hog the machine ... BIG bully ... sell the cards very expensive to the kids… den in version 2, I started to see many having sequence and all do the same thing because they were being bully before ... and same continue till now! What goes around turn around!

Worst now I saw at least 2 men having so many photocopies of sequence selling it in the arcade coz now nobody buys cards ... LOL ...

... now these ppl having sequence spend even more money getting the gold ... becasue everybody have the sequence ... once they identify the machine ... they clear the entire deck .... because they said if they don’t ... buy also they need to pay the same amount .... "

~ AK_cookie



"previously only few sellers have the sequence (controlled the market) .... not much fishing .... buyers/sellers balance ..

some greedy sellers sell sequence (short-term gains) ...... people buy sequence and they share and spread ... this is where the virus started .... students, children, many folks sell at cheap price .... some even at $5.00!!!!!

got sequence ... nobody buy cards from sellers ...... STUPID. Now buyers/sellers unbalance ... everyone will fall and sink together eventually.

Unopen deck is the beginning ... expensive and not many can afford ...... but you can see now (again stupid sellers) slashing prices to push up sales .... $600 .... $500 .... $400 .... when it hits $200-300 .... adults can afford ... same fate at sequence. This will be even worst .... arcade did not earn a single cent!!!!! Sink and die faster ...... altogether.

So you might say spaceshuttle very clever ... then what to do huh? Simple .....

Maintain Buyers/Sellers balance ... maintain prices .... sequence $100-150, unopen decks $500-600 ... it takes one clown to clash the market ... a very very STUPID clown. "

"actually my though ?!!!

seq seller sell, enable ak fan to fish , encouragement ...bring $$$ into operator…
pirate importer of unopen deck kill the game much more faster ....dun need to fish , kill the game straight away ....
complete set nevermind , got extra foil cards....cheap cheap sell to recover the cost .....

so which one is more deadly to kill the game , seq or unopen deck ?????? "

Fishing @ express lane

Background : 1 man + 2 aunties always gang up and bully gamers @ express lane. They are the bad -named fisherman ...who grab all the foil cards ..never give chance to others


"They disgrace themselves being women and also as Singaporean. Morever, they con together with this guy who is a CHEAT.

Their act is being like a FOOL. I pity their husband to have such a wife and they also set a bad example to their child. Disgraceful mother.

I’m a mother too but definitely follow the AK rules for Express Lane. If I ever meet these three again, I’m sure to make them feel SHAME and bring them to everyone attention in front of the crowd. "

"i also met this irritating group while trying to get some foils for my son. what i did was i got my kakis , around 8 of us to queue.
They gave up once they know they cannot outnumber me. :) "

Story : This is why i sold animal Kaiser cards & other stuffs @ Eaby

"My name is Alan Koo (I work as a manager in an engineering company) and travels frequently to china, India, Japan, Hong Kong and Europe. I sell on the internet as a part time hobby as well as to make friends from all over the world.

Proceeds from my profits will be given to the poor children of India and China to finance their childhood education. I think this is the best world to pay back to what the world has given me. So buy generously from me and enjoy what you bought.

~ chinapenking (ebay ID)

Blog Master: I spotted this humble introduction from one of the ebay's seller. Nice short introduction & very touching for the charty donation objective .

I hate you all ...Fisherman / Fisherwoman ~

I am always tempted to get the sequence, in order to fish good foil cards for my son, also to quench my insecurity mentality a times. Does this exposed the mindest of the fishermen out there too??

However, I tried hard to suppress the poison and enticement again and again. Seriously, I have no answer to the mindset of players who are craving to know the sequence of the cards. It crashed and lost the values of the game comprehensively!!!

I have witnessed those adults hogging on the ak machine for prolong period. The plot is simple for this tyoe of simple minded people. Play to lose the game within two attacks from the machine opponent just to get the cards!!!Forget to add, not even the bronze cards were spared!!!!!! Can we imagine a kid doing this as well? Investing aimless time in pushing the dump button with unwise concept......:(

My dissection and analysis could divulge the following basis of the objective of fishermen:

A) Simply Kiasu, eveything want to prevail (typical Singaporean)
B) Simply $$$ minded. Out to earn a peanut from AK machine, though the profit is peanut
C) Do not wish to waste hard earned $$ by getting normal cards
D) Monkey see, monkey do. Stop myself as a victim to fishermen, cannot beat them, i join them. A vicious cycle in the pipeline
E) Wish to get foil cards to please their kids( at least I respect this category of people, a bit...)

Anymore?? If certain to have plenty..........of craps and lame reasons, when it comes from the mentioned fishermen’s horse mouths.

AK used to be a game for entertainment, now is a throat cutting business in convert......E.g : What selling of sequences la.........and it perpetual the growth of fishermen colony....KNN...is a chain effect…

Having said that, for those who know me in person, do expose my hypocrism here,only if you ever see me join the ranks of fishermen........... terrorising and victimising young people and unaware adult at the arcade......

My quote: I detest and look down on fishermen....your are a cheapo.......your underhand act tantamount to your awful values and morality. If you are damn enterprising, go earn big money in the financial field....rather then dwelling in the well.....as a frog… "

How much you know about Fisherman 's behaviour ?

fishermen cloud at Timezone for an apparent reason ... (should be same as you) .... cheaper ... every Friday 50-50 promotion. You may end up paying more ... if iyou are to fish with them ... and not forgetting the treatment you have already experienced ....

go elsewhere other than Timezone .... yes pay a little more - no choice. better still at town areas ... Orchard, Douby Ghaut, Airport T3 ... as fisherman gather in neighbourhood areas .....

2-3 foil cards away for Siegfried .... play all the way (dun wait) ... you spend $40-50. King cobra wait 2 foil cards ... spend $20-30 ...

you want to spend only $2 for the jackpot - this is impossible.

fishermen come in the early morning or late afternoon (4-5pm) .... so you need to be early wait 930am if open at 10am ... when fishermen arrived ... tell them you were fishing .... example 3rd machine (tell them, dun ever ask) .... glue to the glass door ... ha ha lols .....

arcade door opened glue yourself to 3rd machine ......

you may ask how would you know which machines ...... you go there a day before to recce ..... and next day go straight to that machine ....... get all the credits (card top-up) ready ....

Timezone happening~~@ Tamnpines Mall

"I were at the TZ @ Tamnpines Mall this morning before 0930 hrs. There is this guy wearing a yellow & blue t.shirt with a glasses on and some moustache on his lower chin. As we both aim for the same machine (Express Lane), I told him inorder to be fair, we will follow the rule and whoever, get the “Siegfried” card depend on our own luck and he agreed.

Then, we start off the games and during our games and as I’m playing, these two ladies came and talked to this guy. At the beginning, I dun bother with them and played my games. As I’m playing my 2nd games, these two ladies start to join in the queue. Since it is a Express Lane, I can’t argue but to let them join in.

The “Siegfried” card is on the way out fm the machine. As the first lady is playing, I ask the guy whether he knew them and he shaked his head. During the games, I saw these two ladies passing the cards to
the guy after taking from the machine and sensed something is wrong. Then, the second lady got the “Siegfried” and handed over to the guy. I’m very mad and quarrel with him for not being gentleman and also a con man as we agreed to have a fair game in the beginning. He claimed that he does not know them and it’s a fair games after all.

I shall curse these three ppl to HELL and being a CHEAT for doing such a thing. One of the ladies is a Chinese n the other one is a Malay. Such a shameful thing for these two ladies to do.

I hope that those ppl playing at this TZ outlet be aware of them and will not be the next victim like me. "

~ spaceshuttle

You are truly a rookie fisherman......

another typical example how the sequence is killing the game.....

~ rover2426


I believe u r refering to 1 Malay Auntie and 1 skinny lady right.... They r always there, avoid them if possible… They like All gold and Ultimate card...... Take care
~ Wang-AK Ultimate Warrior cum Hulk Hogan


Not sure about other areas, but Tampines Mall and Tampines One are practically difficult to get foil cards during weekend. FIshermen/women will be there in the early morning. Sometimes, they are so “kind” enough to allow other kids to play first, while controlling the machine. If it’s not for the 1 for 1 promotion, I will prefer ZoneX to get my AK cards.
~ bendan


how much times they play? I think they will always hang out there… they always fish for rared cards, be careful.

~ drassen


"yes the police is there to maintain peace and order ...... that is to say the fishermen is creating unrest peace and disorder ....

there are these japan fishing machines being banned in one of the arcade ... the ah lians and ah bengs hang around there whole day shouting, cursing. swearing and fighting .... police called in and told the arcade operator to remove the machines .......

later installed back when the arcade management appeal to police how they could better manage and improve the security .... so let’s not blame the arcade staffs from being super-duper siow on the ball .... to prevent disputes, arguments, quarrels and fights."

~ spaceshuttle



Blog Master: Recently, there had been many cases of unpleasant argument / quarrels among fishermans ...that result some in police cases...SIGN ~ what had this game become now ....

Sell or Dun sell ...???

"I have the sequence since Day 1 ..... and i only fish the first 2-wk ... 2Siegfrieds + 2GWS + 2KC ... why? look right at avarta ... my 2 boys .....

i dun sell sequence ...... why? only share with 2 friends ... whom i promised to share earlier on.

now want to sell ... sell at how much? .... $10? $15? $20? not worth the efforts .... complain sequence not accurate ... do more harm to buyers .... more have sequence more fishermen .... kill AK faster.

sell to who? cheapo? children buy ... you sell? or give free? you want to earn children’s pocket monie meant for .... daily lunch? .... stationary? ....

adults buy? ... who? how to fish now when the plays are snail slow ...... and so many lousy fishermen.
