Biography
Kricket started playing in the winter months of 2007 under the name Krix. At Tribal Rivals II early in the morning Sir Goliath and Syr Sanchez unable to remember Krix from severe hangovers renamed him Kricket. The name only stuck in the North East as everyone else in the game just calls him Krix. Why? Cause it's easier to remember. Has spent considerable time on the road traveling between GVP, Haranshire, and other places within the east coast throughout his early career in the game. During the first half of 2009 founded the website AmtGear, a t-shirt/apparel store hosted by Cafepress with gear specifically tailored to Amtgarders and boffer fighting.
Post FOF 2009, he assisted Jynx Mercades in the founding of The Church of the High Cross, as its Lord High Confessor, preaching salvation to all the unholy infidels of the ditch. Promptly at the next event, and the first event where the Church was properly represented became Jynx Mercades Man-at-Arms. Inquire some time about the Kricket and Jynx's first encounter, it's quite the story, and then he found twenty bucks as a jet flew by.. In August of the same year, Jynx did present Kricket with a squire's belt, with a teary eyed speech that left the surrounding watchers awed at the annual birthday bash celebrating the birth of the one true skorpion, and Saint of Hobo Juice.
As of summer 2010 Kricket abandoned Western New York and relocated to Central Texas.
