Ch.370The Joyful Time of Rerolling (3)

In reality, saying I could do 1,000 consecutive 10-pulls was just talk.

Practically speaking, it meant I could do up to 10,000 pulls until an SSS-rank appeared.

Regarding my conditions, most users laughed it off, saying the moderator only cared about not hurting himself.

Ah, damn lolololololol

The gallery will be a mess after about 1,000 pulls at most

Comments:

-[But honestly, wouldn’t an SSS-rank appear after about 500-600 pulls?]

-˪[If you do them all at once, it feels like the probability increases, so maybe]

-[Even at worst, it should appear within about 10,000 pulls, so it’ll happen pretty quickly]

-[But this is just Icarus doing this, we don’t know what other moderators will do]

-˪[Ah shit]

-[Oh maybe~~~?]

-[MAYBE?]

-[Lolololololololol]

-[So everyone commenting here is getting banned, right?]

-˪[Oh]

—————————————–

At the same time, people were saying that an SSS-rank would appear after 1,000 pulls at worst.

The consensus was that the confusion in the gallery over my policy wouldn’t last very long.

No, it wasn’t just that kind of talk…

I mean honestly, not getting an SSS-rank in 10,000 pulls might happen in a Crappy Game with no pity system or probability

But realistically, it’ll take maybe 400-500 pulls

At most 1,000 pulls to get an SSS-rank, so anyone who doesn’t get one after that is just screwed, right? lol

Comments:

-[H-honestly, I th-think people who don’t get one after 1,000 pulls sh-should kill themselves]

-˪[What the hell are you saying?]

-[But honestly that’s not wrong lolololol]

Everyone’s reaction was predominantly “there’s no way I could be that unlucky.”

Some users were blatantly telling me to hurry up and post proof so they could start bragging themselves, and got banned for it.

In many ways, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves up to this point.

==========

But as I mentioned above, that only lasted ‘until then’.

When I started posting proof of my pulls, the gallery’s atmosphere began changing in real-time.

Well, up to 700-800 pulls, it was the typical “failed pulls” that people commonly see.

Until then, everyone was laughing and making fun of me, saying the moderator was an unlucky idiot.

But after I passed 900 pulls, people started to sense something was off.

And when I finally posted proof of my 1,000th pull…

My heart hurts

Comments:

-[Wow this is…]

-[Wow]

-[What the lolololol]

-[“Is 10,000 pulls a joke? Huh?” (Disappeared like it was actually a joke)]

-˪[This is really pitiful]

—————————————–

Users weren’t mocking me anymore; they were showing sympathy.

But regardless, after sending Jessica back with the work I had asked her to handle,

I silently kept pulling and pulling and pulling, becoming an old man grinding away at gacha.

==========

And soon after passing 2,000, 3,000, and finally exceeding 5,000 pulls.

At 100 pulls = This guy’s just throwing them carelessly because he doesn’t want to manage them lolololol

At 500 pulls = Failed pulls suit a moderator lolol

At 1,000 pulls = What a loser lolololololololol

At 2,000 pulls = What’s wrong with this guy

At 5,000 pulls<now = Since there was no proof after 2,000 pulls, everyone went crazy thinking he finally got something

All the people who were bragging got banned at once, and now that he’s shown his 5,000 pulls, everyone’s just in mourning

Comments:

-[Honestly, 5,000 pulls is no joke, that guy is just genuinely unlucky]

-[No wonder he only has 4 gacha ships after more than 3 years]

-˪[Huh? Icarus only has 4 gacha ships?]

-˪[From what we know, he only has 2 Krakens, Hresvelgr, and Ouroboros]

-[Ah, I see]

Stop lying

There’s no way someone like this exists

Comments:

-[Now he’s having his very existence questioned because of gacha lolololololololol]

-˪[H-honestly, if s-someone fails 5,000 pulls, th-they deserve to be ruined]

-˪[I agree with that]

-[5,000 failed pulls, is that even human?]

-˪[<Link to Icarus’s 5,000 failed pulls post>]

-˪[Oh my]

-[It’s funny how the comment above was confused until they saw the link and then reacted calmly]

“Ah, now that deserves respect.”

Comments:

-[Even these guys are acknowledging it]

-[Don’t acknowledge it lolololol]

-[What’s 20 years compared to 5,000 gacha pulls without a single ship or superhuman lolololol]

-˪[Wait, really?]

-˪[Yeah, his proof shows not a single ship or superhuman]

-˪[Considering Icarus has a level 9 base, he probably didn’t even get D or C ranks, which is insane]

I could feel that my entire existence had become something pitiable in the gallery.
