It's that time of year again for the December round of the highly popular quarterly Arcade Gacha. I usually don't get in early and wait a week or two because their main sim, their overspill shopping galley boat, and the nearby sims tend to fill early, but I used a "get me in hud" found on marketplace that repeatedly tries to tp an avatar and after close to 900 attempts I was in!! Of course Gacha Queen Kathy was there as well so we traded a few items and there are some nice hairs in various colors and monogrammed stockings etc that are nice to trade for the ones you want.  Or, save to give out for Christmas gifts!

My plan was to get the baby and get out, but as a bonafide impulse shopper I ended up with a little of everything and broke the bank.  I did get my baby early on though.  I'm referring to the Black Bantom baby that comes with and without wings in 5 different skin tones along with other gacha options.  For more info. see their image here: https://www.facebook.com/slinventory/photos/a.1497230683627080.1073742159.717329591617197/1497236266959855/?type=3&theater

When visiting be sure to pick up all the free gifts under the huge Christmas tree in the middle of the arcade. This round will remain open through December 31st.


It IS cute!

My friend Kathy Nikolaidis has been hanging out at the Arcade Gacha sim pretty much since it re-opened Sunday June 1 with all new items.  She must have some extreme sorcery magic to get in and out of there at will because no one else can do that. I could not get within 3 sims of the place much less the official designated overflow area the first day.  Even now I can only hope to force my way in most likely bumping someone else out by ramming the invisible sim barrier at oh around 3am.  (mumbles under her breath ~more difficult than Hair Fair~ )  Kathy seems to only surface for air for CFL football games then runs back because she thinks she might have missed something. 


Thus begins another round of Second Life Hoarding cum gambling addiction frenzy cum Arcade Gacha.  Her first night in she bombarded me with a multitude of gifts which I thought was super generous of her only to later find out she was on a mission for all the "rare" items and apparently I was the beneficiary of the overflow of her attempts.  She was gifting me items faster than I could pop them up in my front yard and now it appears my beachy yard has vomited kawaii what with all the adorable little kittens, cats, dragons, gnomes, toys, pretty things, home décor etc etc.  Most of which is unpacked... you know.. the prim issue.

Tonight, day 3, I enter SL after work to this:

So I'm at the spill over sim trying to bump in and no can do, but she IM's me and says, did you get the zip line? I said no I can't get in, and she passed me a zip line, so I say ok now I can go home satisfied. She said, I'm already at your place and was going to drop some things here but your parcel is full... I'm like WHAT???.. I run home and sure enough I have ONE prim left after all the many gacha items on my yard..... ~sigh~  I debated going up to my like 5 sky platforms to see what I might put away, since I am working on a variety of things but we just decided to take a few pics so I could get this blogged. 

Then I go to check her facebook at this point  LOLZ... 3 out of 3 Yusss!

The Arcade Gacha has brought new meaning to the term "Second Life Hoarder" .


We are now both broke ... but happy... tp over and enjoy. 








Below is the SL hoarder video, yes again,  .. I'm not affiliated with this video at all but OM it could so be me.  So much for ever ever attempting to clean my inventory and get my count down.
