Oh Blink how I <3 you, you fill my days with such hope and excitement, I refresh the page hundreds of times a day to see if I wont a link or if a new promo is up. I now you havent seen it in your heart yet to let me be lucky and I have to assume that is my fault, so I will continue to work hard and try to be a better blinker!

This site is a great way to get a ship for less then it would cost on the open market, the auctions are super fast and you can start one for what you are looking for very easy. I had no issue collecting my winnings and there was a nice status notification of where I was in the process of getting my ship. The promo blinks are a great way to give back to the people that play and a lot of fun too.

I've been blinking for about a year on and off. To start with I did great and took out a couple of bil Big smile I was determined to quit while I was ahead. It was gambling, I was always going to lose in the long run and I was smarted than that.

But a couple of months later I was back. I plugged in another 500m or so and promptly lost it with nothing to show. But hell, it is great fun Big smile

Now I play the promo blinks with the tokens I have accumulated, and have somehow accumulated 75m isk in credit, through some achievement or other no doubt, so my new plan is to turn that 75m into billions Pirate

I have personally been playing Blink for quite some time now. If I had to guess I would say since about a month after its creation. At first I thought the concept was just another form of a Ponzi Scheme. You, know... get people to invest tons of money then run with most of it. After all isn't everything in Eve a scam?

Well then I tried it. A friend had told me they had been using the site for a little while. They told me about the promotions and the various achievements. Frankly it seemed quite fun and worth throwing a bit of ISK at. Before long I was addicted, but not in a bad way. I was winning more ISK then I was investing. Since then I have made approximately six billion in profit.

Often I enjoy just randomly checking the site as I play Eve, especially on long trade runs. I have to recommend. Playing Blink to just about anyone who has a little spare ISK they can afford to lose.

Somer blink, what can I say.

Me and her have a love-hate relationship.
That lovely feeling when I win a mega blink, better than winning any fleet battle.
But for every winner there are atleast 15 loosers, that covers the hate part pretty much, I've been on the loosing side for a while RollRoll

Somer Blink..

Clever setup and application.

Win some lose some.

But it's all about that rush you wil get, on a lucky day.

Thankfully I've had many lucky days. Big smile

Somer Blink, yet another reason to log on to EVE.

I resubbed eve a few months ago after almost a year out of game due primarily to boredom, when i came back a friend told me about blink and how awesome it was and tbh i was as skeptical as everyone else that it was a scam! BUT after my friends assurances and a little investigating i found that its just really really good business. Since then I've been blinking like crazy almost every day it adds a new level of fun to the game and its allowed me to branch out more in what i do because all of a sudden i have more isk than i know what to do with!
Blink has been one of the primary reasons for me to remain in game if I'm truthful and I've managed to get almost the entirety of two corps to blink as well, and besides an unlucky frenchman all of us are doing OK on it.

So anyone still unsure i say go ahead and give it a go, you may win you may lose but its fun and addicting either way...and the promos are killer!

Only recently started blinking, I can thank my alliance mates for getting hooked.
Well, it's like crack, in a certain way. Rewarding and punishing at the same time, and equally addictive.

I do them all, small ones and big ones and wait for the blue-flahsy thingy.
Nothing beats the feeling when you snipe a blink with the last ticket.

If you overdo it, you'll lose ISK, but with every form of gambling you'll have fun while doing it.
It's just pixel money anyways.

Lets just say i'm addicted!Lol

182.4 billion in winnings so far and 72 achievements, not quiet in the super league of this game but getting there.

The reason I play blink is I think the staff have done a great job on the website. I remember when lotto's in EVE took days to finish, the blink equivalent can finish within a few hours and on normal blinks under a minute. I sometimes spent much more than i can afford, though am having such great fun.

I would also like to thank the staff for being very polite and proffesional. The consumer/players on blink can be very demanding at times.

Promos are great feeling to win, 'Get in there' , i never expected to win those and best of all free.Big smile

I think blink is a great addition to EVE and minigames within games keep the spirit of gameplay alive. I would also like to mention, listening to eve radio is a cool pastime to listen to when hauling/mission running.


Blink micro lottories is great idea and wish i could of implemented such an idea myself.Idea

Hey all,

Nice job on the web page, and i guess there was hard work behind the "scene" :)

First i was doubtful whether it was a scam or a real working thing, but i gave a try, and i become addicted :)

I am still.

Thank you for the opportunity, we can gamble, but not with the real money.
If it was with real money, i would live now under a bridge :)

I've been playing Blink since the day it opened. The staff are great and ultra-helpful and prizes are delivered quickly and efficiently. Just remember, when picking a promo ticket avoid #80. It's broken.
