Me and the boys from The Four Horsemen have been watching Kick for a while now. Several weeks ago I mapped out all his coordinates. I knew that he was going to be tough to catch, but maybe by some weird circumstance I would catch him with his pants down (or his eyes closed). So I was just browsing around Zorg, when I decided to take a look at the rankings page. To my surprise, I saw Kick was up there. This was shortly after stats update and I knew this was not his normal playing time. So I quickly grabbed my notes and started probing all of his colonies. I went to the report of where he normally keeps his fleet. Amazed at the realization that his fleet was down and he was not online, I quickly launched! 3 hour trip, I noticed. As I tried to send from another galaxy. So I quickly recalled, jumped all my rips and launched again. Figuring he had a lot of rips, I should probably sim the battle. I was going to lose 5 bill! That was not acceptable, so I recalled again, and sent some deut to planet I was launching from. As that was going on I simmed the different mixture of ships to use, after getting the right mix, I had to jump those additional ships (waiting for jg to open again). Then I launched for the third and final time. 2 hours later boom. Kick got on a short time later and congratulated me, displaying the classy player that he is. This battle was truly an honor. With the help from Righteous and War, We got a vast majority of the df, but 8 bill is a lot to grab.
Good luck on the rebuild Kick!
