Exactly which image of it being fair were you fooled by?

The part where you're not in any way guaranteed to win?

The part where all the tickets for a particular BLINK combined add up to more than the cash value of the item being delivered as a prize?

The part where various 'high rollers,' whether real players or BLINK alts win big prizes by purchasing over half the tickets for a given blink?

I fail to see that there was ever an appearance of fairness.

When did I say there was an appearance of fairness? All I said was these are a scam. I didn't say they are dressed up to be non profit, I didn't say they were fair, I didn't say you were guaranteed to win. I simply said that they are a scam. They are relatively easy to rig, and with the history of EVE players as a benchmark, chances are 9/10 lotteries are rigged to generate more isk for the host.

All lotteries are DESIGNED to generate isk for the host. Rigging it would indeed be a scam; but seeing as a lottery in and of itself is designed to make money without even being rigged, rigging it is not necessary. I can draw names out of a hat; as long as I sell more in tickets than I give away in prizes, I make money. That's not rigged, it's how it works.

Furthermore, 'more' isk is a ridiculous description. More than what? How much isk are they supposed to be making?

I've made 788mill in blink credits and 350mill in ISK, which translates to 150mill profit.

Not that much, but i'm happy. ^_^


Personally won billions in ships/isk for not even half invested of what I won. Some people don't understand the sun doesn't orbit around their belly and actually think everyone is chasing them or wants to harm them and Sommer Blink are actually a triade organization. If only they could somehow at some point figure out they're simply bad...

Paranoid, silly, I can name a few more.

Lotteries always generate ISK for the host.
But, if SOMER was a scam, you'd think people would have caught up by now and moved on.
She runs it legit and to be frank, she makes more doing it legit than she would otherwise.

Go back to your cave.

'Stealth ad'. yeah im totally getting payed by SOMER to advertise for a lottery system EVERYBODY knows. It *really* needs attention right?

I just had a question. Lots of EVE players are too busy being paranoid looking behind them that they fail to see whats going on in front of them.

Wake up kids.
