I have been blinking for nearly 10 months off and on. Very casually.

Value of Blinks Won 6,244,001,425 ISK



Im told this value does not reflect promo wins. My promos were Kronos -Rorqual- Absolution/-Navy Harby



I know no one at blink, **** im currently solo in the game, I have had an excellent experience, and slightly profitable, though it certainly has its ups and downs, such is the nature of gambling.

I have no idea what the big stink is about, EvE has a market "simulator" Some player had unique skills,saw an opportunity. and got rich. This is at the core narrative of eve. its not fair, its not supposed to be.

quit your whining and innovate, or go run L4's

My experience in Goonswarm has been excellent, I guess that means CCP should spawn us free stuff with no strings attached!

Seriously the concern isn't about the integrity of Blink, it's about CCP showing favoritism and giving a player entity a massive amount of wealth.

creating something that has literally become part of the eve experience happened before the favoritism. Simply saying it seems earned to me.

We are all part of the EVE experience, creating it and reaping from it you utter piece of ****.

we are all part of the experience, some pilots experiences are better than others. This is the way it should be.

And ive never spoken to somer, but i am up several billion, and i cant believe i am the only casual player who is in the same boat. If someone else would have created a way for me to burn isk and have a touch of eve at work, that individual would have gotten the opportunity instead.

Why do some folk just not understand that it is not about Blink being trustworthy or not, it is about CCP showing favouritism to a player run corp.

Personally, I would love it if Blink scammed CCP over this, as it would be one of the greatest player generated stories in the history of Eve Online.

This is not a signature.

I totally do understand this, I am just ok with it. its the way of the world, The game is a damn capitalism simulator. This is how the world works, eve is more real this way.

What about EoH? Far fewer legitimacy issues, far smaller margins and far more fun to play.

What about my CEO and FCs, they have created 'something' that is a big part of my eve experience.


Surely they deserve something, rather than someone who already makes vast amounts of ISK and some $ for making yet another eve lottery system, albeit a bit more polished than most.

Ahahaha what

If this game is a capitalism simulator, what role does CCP take? I hope you're not about to say the government because governments giving handouts to entities in a capitalist system goes against the laissez-faire aspect, which is what EVE is ~supposed~ to be.

From what I see SOMER looks like a charity corporation since it actually gives more money to its players than it takes from them.

Roll ... or not.

If you want to express yourself regarding a lottery, please do so in the appropriate lottery thread. In this case that would be this one.
