Whac-a-mole

If you go to the arcades, you’ll probably see a few kids playing Whac-a-mole.

At any moment, you gotta smash the mole down. 

If you don’t strike it within a certain time or with enough force, it will eventually sink back into its hole with no score.

At first it starts off slow, then it gets faster.

Less moles inside, and more moles outside their holes.

As time goes by, the harder it gets. The more overwhelming it feels. 

The more skilled and sharper you need to be to catch the mole.

Speed wins.

Though, I wonder what would happen if we decide to let the moles go up and down. Come in and out. 

And just be okay with that.

Would we be losing, or will we have cracked it?
