I know some people that are so addicted that they will deposit every 50 mil they get from ratting/running anomalies in null sec.

They never keep a single cent for anything else.

That's how addictive Blink is.

Just a small enhancement, it would be cool if you can pick a ratio between isk, and blink credit payout with a slider or something.

sometimes its a bit annoying to have to make the full isk payout, retransfer an amount to blink, and wait for the api cycle to continue to play.

Otherwise fantastic site, addictive as hell, and fun :)

There is no ability to withdraw ISK from your account. If you win a prize, you can take an ISK buyout for the prize's value instead of the ship itself-- it's an option in your My Blinks page when you win :)

I love blink.
I just wish they kept a running track-list of the individual ships you've won. You know, nothing fancy, but a way to keep track of your hotdog progress. :P

We do! Go to "My Blinks", and then click on "View All Winnings" on the right.

I really enjoy Somer Blink. The only problem I have is with the lack of transparency with regards to statistics. The people in the eve channel can be really mean and even some of the somer staff have been nasty to me because I "ask to many questions". But overall I find Somer Blink lotto to be a stable and fun way to win big or just have fun playing the odds.

I do have a few suggestions however.

I think their should be a way to submit questions or creative feedback without having an entire channel full of kool aid drinkers jumping on you and trolling you.

I think a ticker should show you % chance of winning a given blink. For example lets say I am playing a mega blink and I have 5 tickets, it should have a little number floating above the blink stating my chances of winning based on how many tickets I have purchased. I think this would be a good learning tool for people as well as a psychological reinforcement for people to buy more tickets.

I feel that the statistics page is very lacking in well statistics. Were are the listings of how much isk people have lost? The only statistics I have seen are the positive ones that are in favor of the site and somer.

I would really like to be able to export an excel sheet of all the blinks in the past year and who won each of them for how much, etc etc. I really love playing with stats in excel and I think if somer blink is a legit and scam free organization as I believe them to be they would have nothing to hide.

Don't you just hate:-

"Error: You are too poor to bonk." Ugh

"Too Poor: You lack sufficient funds in your account to purchase this ticket." What?

"Deposit API: 365 Minutes" Cry

"Win Ratio: 0.01%" Oops

"Achievement Award (Unstoppable): 0/30" Straight

"Butans: Congrats, you've answered this question" Correct responses 456!!!



p.s. thanks for the 90T celebrations Somer P

I really love blinking too, but somehow i have a feeling i don't have any luck at all :(
A lot of my friends and corpies keep winning promoblinks once every 150 or even 100 promoblinks, but i haven't even won once in 600 participations :'( (not even a frig)

Lil question: Where can we see who've won the Bonk's?
