How do you wake someone up from inside a dream?
This is not my first attempt on ZPM. Years ago, LoveMe and I tried him, back when his turtle was in g1. We had his time down, but he somehow came on in time to recall before our rips reached his moon. Moon went down and we did not find anything. I always felt unfulfilled by that, and have felt like owed him this since my return here.
Citizens to terrorize, generations to desensitize
As fate would have it, ZPM was next on the list. I won’t lie, this excited me. Finally, a chance to finish what LoveMe and I started so long ago. This time the turtle moved to g9. We watched, observed, learned the patterns and movements.
A market to monopolize,
We watched for a period of 4 weeks. And we noticed that every single day, the target changed behavior. Some nights he would log in around 2 -3 ST, other nights he would not come back until 6ST. This varied from week to week. Hardly ever a pattern. Except for one consistent day, Friday. Without fail, for weeks, the target did not come back on Friday mornings until 4-6ST. This was our window, the target decided for us. We set a date and time, gathered hitters, and here we are.
I want to breathe that fire again
When the moon came down, we found a 9 hour deploy. Not too bad, easily broke up into teams, and stayed up watching. Target came on and recalled at about 6 hrs left in deploy.
No time to apologize, fury to tranquilize
I need to give huge, HUGE thanks to some people who are not in this fight. First, Lock Down, thank you for being there with us throughout the night. It is a shame that there is a cap to 5 for flights, and the way things turned out meant you could not fly this time. But, know you were an integral part of the process and a willing murderer
Next, Diesel, as always, thank you for helping here. Between us, tracking the targets is never too difficult and even fun, staying up and chatting about patterns. Thank you for the help lanxing
Obviously, huge thanks to everyone involved in this fight. I am proud of you guys and can’t imagine this game without you. On to the next one fellas
