Subject: "heart of the cards"....(my definition to that quote)


well it seems l find myself writing again. well mainly the reason is l got 
some positive feedback and it motivated me to share a few of my experience 
when l first played this game when LOB was the biggest thing next to slice 
bread. heart of the card yeah we heard it all in the t.v show and maybe in 
the duel. recently l just had a revelation. now l just want to warn you 
guys what lam about to write. l just want to remind you all that is what l 
think it might be, the definition of heart of the cards. l believe that the 
heart of the card is the type of value the card has in it for the user. you 
know like in the t.v show with yugi's grandfather refusing to sell his blue 
eyes. it didn't make any sense in the beginning of the t.v show but as the 
show progress it revealed why he didn't sell it. l believe that having a 
value in the cards itself has greater meaning than buying them singles or 
ripping a little kid for his jinzo for a great moth or something. l have a 
friend she gave me a few cards. they are snatch steal, gemini elf, barrel 
dragon just to name a few. yeah those are high end cards but l don't see 
them as high end cards. l see them as gifts. she told me l can keep them so 
long as l keep playing. 

l told her l'll keep playing and never sell them. 
some of you might be saying..."oh so your playing for someone" more or less 
but the point is that those cards are more than just card board to me. when 
l go to tournaments people want to trade with me. often times they give me 
an offer l cant refuse but when they choose a card that my friend has given 
me l turn down the offer and tell them that the card is a gift from a good 
friend. my deck symbolize the friendships with all my friends. well one of 
my good friends trade me his imperial for a magic jammer. seeing l have two 
l trade him one. that imperial order is a card l'll never trade because its 
my best friends card. also he gave me his black skull dragon (yeah it's a 
fusion at first l didn't play it but afterward l put it in my deck as my 
trump card and also an analogy of how strong out friendship is connected 
with the attack power of the black skull...yeah l know that was corny but 
sue me). my deck pretty much consist of my friends cards that we traded. l 
mean l gave my mirror force to my brother and his friends wanted to trade 
that card for a gate guardian...( to sell on ebay back when MRD was still 
hot) my brother turned it down. he told them my brother gave it to me. 

l feel that my deck is unique like everyone else.. like l said it's a symbol 
of friendships to me. so every time l draw a certain card like gemini elf. 
l don't see... a good monster...instead l see the card that was given or 
traded and has more meaning than a 1900 attacker. even the man-eater card 
she gave me has more value than fiber jar or exodia. yeah exodia is a great 
card l don't bash cards but lam. just stating that if a man eater has a 
greater value that because it was a gift from a friend and it means a lot 
to me. it would be great if l have an exodi

by the way the name is Zero( trust me it roots back way before the megaman 
X series)). well l'd like to thank pojo for posting my letter. l appreciate 
it.

well of course like my previous posting. negative feed backs will be dealt 
to the extreme. so if its negative keep it to yourself but l'll make some 
exception. l recieved an e-mail saying about my grammer and spelling on my 
last letter. well the writer was kindly enough and polite might l add to 
tell me about it instead of the usual "hey you cant spell worth crap" 
please if its negative make it a polite negative...yes l wrote to the guy 
back and thanked him for not being rude and l wrote to him that l'll do my 
best not to make so much mistake. well if your reading this ( the person 
who told me about my grammer and spelling e-mail me back and tell me how 
did l do in this one)
