Denial and Isolation
Honestly, the rumor about AGG closure was no new information for me, even before Zynga announce that China branch would be disbanded, I knew that Zynga in general was dying. My friend said that Zynga would probably have to close down all its office by 2015, and he said this at least one year before the news of Zynga China closure. But I brushed him off, since after all, AGG was such a popular game. Look at all those whales throwing off all their money in the game. Zynga's higher ups were totally swimming in money pool, so I feel that they won't close the game no matter what.

Zynga decided to close the bell summon in December.. I believed that Zynga was making a ridiculous decision, after all, in bell summon they just need to make one new card as leader card, then they can just throw a bunch of trash cards from rare summon and special summon.. and... TA-DA that's bell summon! More importantly, they can get like $300 per person in the cost of making one card. Such a big profit with least effort.. But when I think about it, this is totally Zynga's hint for us that AGG is coming to an end, yet again, I deny those hints and brushed it off. I just think that Zynga is making a bad decision about closing bell summon. Well, cause fuck Zynga, right?

Anger
No daily gifts, no events, no news, no annoucements, not even shrine of seven days. what the fuck Zynga?! How can they treat their customers like this? Zynga is clearly shitty as a company. But again after I think about it.... There's no written rule that Zynga has to give us daily gifts. It's gifts after all, how can we be shameless and ask for it, haha. The same goes to events, news and announcements.. There's no written rule that there must be an event going on non stops. And just because Zynga usually make announcements on Tuesday, there's no written rule that Zynga has to give us something on Tuesday... Yet, who cares about the no written rules, everyone is mad at Zynga. Zynga is totally a punch bag. lol
 * someone: "Yeah there's no announcement again today, let's wait til next week"
 * some other one: "okay"
 * me: lol why til next week, they can make announcement anytime, don't they? :(

There was a rumor that Zynga would make announcement on 20th March. Well, in the end, they didn't disappoint us, they did make an announcement on 20th. LOL... the announcement of AGG closure. Fck u Zynga.

Bargaining
Petition to stop Zynga from closing of the game, rumors about AGG2, rumors that there'll be AGG in private servers, rumors about Chinese whale players going to buy AGG.

I'm sceptical any of those will bear fruit at all. But, oh well, anything to make me feel any better.

Depression
After those denial, anger and bargaining, I started to think about how much I lost because of the closure of the game.... Ugh... let me thing about it. I think I spend more than $2000 for this game. I can totally buy a 1 macbook or 2 apple watch or 3 unlocked iphone. or 80 Dota2 arcana items. or 4 Playstation 4 or 30 PS4 games. or eat high quality steak on pricey restaurant for 1 month non stops. Damn... What a waste.. I'm so regretting my impulse on spamming items... I'm so mourning for all those money I spent on this game. I should have spend it on more 'reliable' games.... I didn't even get ryoma till the end... *sigh*

Acceptance
In the end, this is not the first time I experienced the closure of games. I played Master Fantasy Online for 3 years, the company closed the game, I get over it. I played Emil Chronicles Online for 2 years, the company closed the game, I get over it. I played Aura Kingdom, my boyfriend said I neglect him when I play, so I should stop playing. I stopped, I get over it. I played ayakashi for since Alice in Ayakashi land event, Zynga decided to closed it. I get over it. After all I played ayakashi for my free time. I just need to find another game and for now, Devil Maker: Tokyo and 1010! do the job to fill my free time. I'm still adapting to DMT gameplay. Starting a game is tiring, I don't like feeling like noobs. But DMT is fun so far.. so I'm good with it :D

The Good Bye
I meet all kind of person in this game and along time, befriended with them..

To Zynga: Thank you for creating Ayakashi. Even though you are a shit company, without you, Ayakashi won't exist. Thank you so much, because you create this game, I meet with my friends.

To Mag, Cielo, Lisa, Solar: Thank you for being there for me! Thank you Cielo for always sharing info and rumors in the chat, I'm always up-to-date because of you. Thank you Solar for always spamming those jellyfish stickers, that totally killed my battery and data, but who cares it was fun! Thank you lisa for always being funny. Thank you Mag for being the true leader of the passerby united *wink*.

To Jai: Thank you for inviting me to Forsaken Reborn chat! You help me take one step closer to *cough* stalking *cough* Solar

To Chi: Thank you for helping me getting those sealstones for Ameno... you really helped me who were in a pinch back then.. :D

To my Guild: Mira<3 too bad I only experience 1 GCQ with Mira<3. You guys teach me that if we got teamwork, we can be on the top without spending any items. To my past guilds: Golden Wings who shelter me when I was noob and Endless Resonan

To the admins: Thank you for updating and maintaining the wikia pages. AGG wikia is beautiful, thank you for all your hard work. To Kazu: thank you for always being brave to play as the 'bad guy' in order to keep the peace in wikia.

Shameless thank you to AKFrost: Thanks to you I have the motivation to learn javascript. Your scripts are so useful. Thanks to you the last SS is so effortless. Again, Thank you!

To AGG and Wikia User: lol, I know that I'm not always kind in the community. Sometimes you lots annoyed me, but anyway, thanks for putting up with me. haha. I know you all good guys/girls, too bad I don't have the time to talk in depth with you all to know you all better.

It's been hell of a ride AGG! Thank you for accompanying me in my free time for--holy shit--2 years and 3 months... Can't believe I played mobile game for this long.. :o

Accidents happens, and Zynga has to close the game. I'm moving on to other game, so I'll probably won't be visiting this wikia as much. This is my good bye. Farewell Ayakashi. Farewell everyone!
