Well, the Blink site says I should write a mini-review of my blink experience and I'll get an achievement. We all like achievements don't we? be they Xbox, PS3, Steam or anywhere else!
I've been a blinker since just after the 20 Trillion ISK prize time, and now they're up to about 55 Trillion awarded.
I've put in about 650 mil so far (I'm a pauper), and won about 600mil in prizes, so not a bad return.
My real story is about Somer himself, a true gent and a genuinely nice guy, and here's why:
I used to blink using my OOG browser (Chrome) and for the first month or two everything was fine. Then it all went a bit weird. My account got banned because something my browser was doing was effetively DOS attacking the Blink site.
So, I did what the support link said and emailed Somer.
He came back to me within about 2 days (remember, he has a LOT of people using his site, he must answer a load of support mails). He was really, really nice about it. I can say this because, had it been my site I'd probably have told me "hey dude, either you're doing this deliberately or you're a total idiot, I don't want you on my site and I don't need you on my site".
Anyway, he explained exactly what was happening, and told me that he'd re-open my account if I could guarantee it never happened again. No, really, he did! I couldn't believe it either to be honest.
So I made my promise, I only ever blink from the ingame browser, it hasn't, to my knowledge re-occurred, and I'm a very happy blinker once again.
Oh yeah, almost forgot to mention, blinking is a ton of fun, you can pick your own prizes, get a ticket for an interceptor lottery with 8 tickets for as little as 2mil and get a result in minutes, how cool is that!
So thank you Somer, and thank you CogDev, you're a great bunch of guys with a great product and the slickest website I've seen in a very long time.
Everyone get blinking, I want to see the 100 Trillion milestone!
Until they fix the BBCode, you'll just have to use your imagination.
