How to make 210M profit in 24 hours

So I would throw this out there for new folks trying to get a start - this is not trying to get you to go to the site - if anything, I would avoid it unless you have money to lose.

Somer Blink (google it) is an Eve Online gambling site that runs micro-lotteries. Basically, the way it works is you deposit isk and buy chances for a prize. For smaller prizes (under 200M or so) it's 8 tickets. The site takes 30% (that's how they make their isk) so if you buy all 8 tickets it's a losing proposition, however, there is a way to work it to get a good profit in a small period of time. Blink has "achievements" that payout isk, the only downside is that you have to play the games to get the money out but here is a quick way to make some isk.

If you play 8 tickets on a Claw, you will have 100% chance to win and it will cost you 16M isk. The payout is 10.8M isk, so a 5.2M loss but here is what you do. If you play 1 Claw once an hour for 24 hours in row (it's easier than it sounds, for example, I set my alarm for 3:55AM, played once for the 3AM hour and then stayed up until 4:01AM and played once for the 4AM hour and then slept until 5:55AM rinse/repeat) you will get the following achievements:

Baby's First Blink 1M
Veteran Blinker (10 blinks) 2M
Blink is my day job (1 blink per hour - 8 hours) 25M
Marathon Runner (1blink per hour - 12 hours) 50M
All-Nighter (1 blink per hour - 24 hours) 250M
Just Lucky (win 1 blink) 1M
Not by chance (win 2 blinks) 2M
On a roll (win 10 blinks) 10M
Killing Spree (win 1 blink an hour for 12 hours) 100M
More Isk than cents (buy all the tickets in a blink) 1M

So that's 442M in achievements. Now to get there, you will have spent 130M in blinks (24 Claws * 16M, reinvesting the 10.8M win so adding 5.2M per hour) and should be sitting on the 442M in achievements. Now you have to get that out of blink. You can look at a couple of different things but with 442M you could run 2 100% Rapiers with a payout total of 342M. So you've spent 130M and walk away with a profit of 210M (total winnings of 342M - the spend of 130M).

Of course, you can try to do all this with less than 100% odds but that's up to you. As a point of caution, Blink is a fun way to win lots of isk or lose your shirt. I have made billions one day only to lose it all the next. There is no worse feeling than getting on a cold streak and watching your hard earned isk fly out the window. The above is just a way to get some quick isk, you have to decide if you want to play it after afterwards but I would strongly suggest that you only do so with isk that you don't mind losing. Anyway, like I said, I'm not trying to get anyone to go to the site or anything, this is just a way to play the system to get some isk.

Good luck!

Seriously, get a life.

If you have time to play Blink for full 24h you really need to get out of your mom's basement more often.

Really? It took like a total investment of time of like an hour on my iPhone. Maybe if you spent more time actually thinking through how to do it instead of being insulting, you would see that it's not really that hard and would come across as less of a jerkoff. Win/win.

Also, if you play of 30 days and have at least one win each day, it's another 600M in achievements which pays for a Plex plus some. Please note, that doesn't mean that you have to play 24 hours a day for 30 days straight - thought I would clarify since some people apparently don't have great reading comprehension skills.

Just because, why does what he does with his life bother you? before you say it does'nt , you did reply so it is obvious his life concerns you a whole lot. I am trying to get into the mind of people like you, people more concerned with others lives then your own.

I mean really, why does what anyone does with thier time concern you at all? After all you play a mmorpg, one if the biggest time wasters since TV. so let us in on your life, why are you so overly concerned with others?

I'm a nerd, you can check my stats!! Skilling Int/Mem at 45 sp per minute is how I mack!     I'm like a lapdog, all bark no bite.
