I will keep this short and sweet. There is another GD thread to do your ranting, so let's keep it there. Let me also say that it is no secret that I am very fond of both CCP and CCP Navigator. I believe the latest scandal is more of a misunderstanding, and heads do not need to roll.

That being said, I believe for many people that this may be the last straw of seeing Somer Blink appear to have an unfair advantage. In many ways, they may have had what you call a "first mover advantage" in Eve gambling followed up by great networking and advertising. I know that others will not boycott Somer unless they find an alternative way to risk their isk.

Below I will list a handful of alternatives for those who like to gamble or otherwise risk their isk for a big payout. I encourage everyone to vote with their isk and choose another venue for their gambling interests.

1. Evealopalous www.evealopalous.com and soon www.iwantisk.com

2. Eve Online Holdem www.eohpoker.com

3. My game of course. If you can read simple rules in Bio. Selected prior contestants can be found on www.minerbumping.com


As far as responses, I simply ask that people reply to this thread with something short and sweet if they support boycotting Somer Blink. Something as simple as "I pledge to boycott Somer" will suffice.

Yeah, this needed another thread.

Especially one endorsing account hacking local spamming bots, a poker site whose banker was ganked by the devs for streaming himself using a bot, and a jita local scammer.



This ^^ FFS you have got to be kidding me. I enjoy Somer, everything in moderation. Erotica1 needs to quit attention whoring and GTFO.

First thing, they can afford to pay out over a quadrillion isk in prizes. Must be a lot of losers..

Pretty sure all of GD is here for us to waste our lives posting meaningless walls of text, so here I go:

Once EVE was a good game, but then it sucked.
CCP, Goons and Carebears made it suck.

Now this is the story all about how
My life got flipped, turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-air

In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
And all shooting some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys, they were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighbourhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said "You're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-air"

I whistled for a cab and when it came near the
License plate said "fresh" and had a dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought nah, forget it, yo homes to Bel-air!

I pulled up to a house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabby "Yo, homes smell you later!"
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-air

Let's all be civil and stay on topic. I'm sure if Mittens started a lottery, it would be a hit in its own right.

Keep the negativity in "that other thread."

Simply respond with support of the boycott if you so choose.


Mittens does not need to start a lottery, I'm quite sure he is earning enough from advertising sponsors paying him to advertise their wares on his site. A site that, coincidentally, is having many more hits than usual due to the perceived "scandal" he believes he found. Funny that eh?

But what happens when Mittens tells you to use his new lottery? Are you required to forget math, or just to ignore it long enough to do what he told you again?

I actually don't pay much attention to him. vOv

Oh daaaaaaaaaamn you're in a world of trouble now.
