Tried it... Won an Apocalyspe and two Brutix BCs... Spent 348mil, which is more than the combined value of the ships. Was fun, though. The big items almost seemed to autofill. I only got a ticket when I started them, and then, I could only get one.



Blink players have to be quick clickers when a new blink appears. Someone mentioned that FPS experience was helpful for fast targetting and clicking on the tickets they wanted as the board jumps around to give every player the same chance to find their desired number.

It seems the large ISK items have the blinkers with most experience at clicking fast on the numbers you want.

It is certainly no time to dawdle and say, "hmmm now what were the other tickets I wanted ........" because they are already gone by that time

When there is a promo, it may get 250 tickets taken out in under ten seconds. So you can imagine if 250 players are after the 8 or 16 tickets on an expensive blink, the fast on the draw are the gunslingers who get the numbers they want.

But that is all part of the excitement and fun - but I can see how it can frustrating for a new player not expecting such rapid buying, but then the big blinks can sit there for a half hour with one or two tickets still for sale... The smart blinkers have been watching the numbers and going for the ones that seem to hit more often as all of the numbers rotate thru their cycles in the theory of probability. Very interesting reading for anyone who wants to gamble on any game like Blink.

A tip is to clear the cache in your internet browser and close as many processes as you can. You can google instructions for whatever browser you are using for clearing the cache. In windows, I do a disk cleanup and defrag every before I play. I live in the part of the US where the only internet connection is thru either dialup or Hughes net which is about the lowest rated satelite ISP service out there - so many DCs and almost no part of Eve where I would want to play can be done on dialup anymore. I read recently somewhere about how many dialup players they have and was shocked, but I might counted as one of those, but when Hughes out and I need to change a training, I'll use the dialup we have as backup.

I can almost ell what kind of blazing ISP connections some players have, just by watching move around so much fster than I can. When I see in chat players talking about playing from work on from college campuses - I know the have me beat on the quick draw.

But we didn't buy this spread and move to Big Sky Country for fast internet connections - course, there was no such thing as an internet connection when we moved out here, anyway.

Well, good luck to you - just do all you can to make sure your compter is working as fast as it can to give yourself as much of an advantage as you can get.

Somer Blink is a business. A business' purpose is to provide a service for a profit.

I have deposited 500mil and lost it all, but I have also deposited 300mil and won a vindicator, navythron, and 2 nagas. (this actually just happened yesterday, feel free to check my contract history)

Do they make a profit on every blink? Of course, you'd have to be extremely thick not to realize that.

I personally would like to see some investigation in to the characters who buy up 3/4 of the ultra and mega blink tickets each and constantly lose. Sure, they will win once in a while, but their success rate has to be terrible compared to the isk spent.

I've played a fair few times and never been scammed by somer, one time accidently sent the entire contents of my wallet by accident while making a deposit (apparently when sending isk to someone if you put one extra number in by mistake and it's more than you have in your wallet eve decides you wanted to send all your wallet lol) and had to wait a few hours for one of the directors to get on but got my isk back :)

one of my corp mates had to wait 4 days for a ship hul once that he'd won, but they still delivered it in the end. :)

legit yep
scam nope

So, you think they're evil RMT-ing scammers, but you directly copied their site, ran it through google translate to make it Russian, and don't intend to petition them for RMT?

The standard for GD trolling has gone downhill lately :/

Ok this proves what again?

He has played 7 500mil isk promo's (favourite blinks does not mean he has won 7 500m isk promo's, just that he has clicked a ticket on 7 different 500m isk promo's) something quite common around celebration time, he has won 18 out of 40 blinks, mostly small ships by the looks of it and a 1bil promo (grats) and a guardian promo (grats again). So he is a lucky player, I fail to see what is so suspicious? Without you even knowing how many tickets he bought in each of those blinks he played how on earth could you say it's a scam?

How can you possibly tell how much this guy has deposited to consider it RMT? He hasn't even deposited 500mil in his account or he would have the "Extra Big Spender" Achievment, so how does this equate to RMT?

All I can see out of this post is butthurt losers who are trying to invent stuff and call it a conspiracy.

Get back under your bridge troll...

I will confirm after losing about 3 bil to blink that they are genuinely good at getting you hooked and taking all your isk. Its not a scam they jsut do it really really well with an awsome website and lots of shiny ships in fast auctions. I do have friends however who make me sick with what they have won.

Give it a go, i was a bill up at one point but i jsut couldnt stop myself, now im space poor.
