I dont understand the Plex credit system. When I buy plex from blink, the credits given are treated seperately from the plex I buy or am I selling the plex I buy to blink? |

You're selling them your plex. But they're buying it for ~50m than normal plex prices. So if you want to use it - sell them your plex, buy a new plex, keep the profit. |

or maybe i am confusing myself
Basically they buy PLEX from you at a higher price than you can get for it on the market - but to stop people abusing the **** out of the system they limit it so that you can only sell a limited quantity to them based on how often you buy PLEX through their referral link which is where the credit bit comes in.
Its a roundabout way of rewarding people who help support Somer via the referral link.
(Otherwise people would just buy every PLEX on the market and sell to Somer for a personal profit). |

So basically you ask for us to buy more plex from your link in order to get the bonus. I have a bunch of credits and I cannot use them unless I spend more money by buying plex again, this is frustrating.. I wish to transfer my credits as blink bonus instead, like the old system... credits are re-troactive but not the bonus

Buy a plex for isk in Jita. Sell it to blink. Keep the profit. Buy a new plex. Sell it to blink. Keep the profit. Repeat until you're out of credits. |

Could the promos be setup so that when you actually, successfully get a ticket, there is a significant time between the ticket selection being accepted and the promo window reducing.
Problem: I'll be spamming all the tickets I can, because a lot of times, the tickets are already gone, and the browser/connection has a significant delay between responding. What will happen, is that I'll be spamming tickets in the promo hoping that at least one is not already taken, but because of latency/delay, the promo window will reduce before I get the 'you got a ticket' banner appears on the right, I'll still be spamming ticket numbers, then the promo page will dissapear, and I'll end up spamming a ticket for a mega blink that was underneath the promo. Its not an issue when I dont have the credit, but I've purchased several tickets in blinks that I never intended to purchase. Is it reasonable to expect people to click, then wait for the delay between reporting if you got the ticket or not? I mean, the promo tickets go so fast, and with 400ms delays, and the soft prompt on getting the ticket or not, its kind on frustrating, which forces people to go click click click click, oh crap, I just brought a ticket to a phoenix blink.
Solution: on successful ticket click, instead of the soft response on the top right, replace the promo section with a response of the same size saying ticket obtained, have that dissapear after 3 seconds or some amount of reasonable time.
If this is possible, or another solution is more appropriate, I'm sure more than a few people will appreciate it.

The way Somer Blink has been treated here is garbage. I will be doing whatever I can to help get the message across to CCP that this is as much a part of EVE to me as the game itself. |

I cannot believe that CCP are being like this. Blink is a HUGE part of my eve life. I know all of us regulars on blink are actually pissed off about this.
On a side note to Somer and staff you have as always done an amazing job and you are the MOST upstanding and honest people I have met in EvE.
CCP needs to burn for this one. |

I really enjoyed the two days that I did get to enjoy SOMER Blink. I think that losing Blink is a major blow to the eve community. I hope that they get back to opperating soon. |

Probably if they hadn't tried to launder real money trade they wouldn't have to shut down. Then again they have a history of shady dealings. So they would've done something even CCP would have to call them on eventually. |

I think the real winners from this micro lottery were those running bots and staying under the ban radar (and I do not even want to think about the possible collusions that could happen there...)
If they come back, they will hopefully put something in place to make sure this can't be botted at all, or that anybody can automate their participation so that botters do not have undue advantages.

Not sure what words are appropriate.
This experience will not be even remotely the same anymore. I can gamble anywhere but, the loss of the fun, the professionalism, the fountains of isk, and above all the community will be greatly missed.
Tell you what I do like though: A killer. A dyed-in-the-wool killer. Cold-blooded, clean, methodical and thorough.

Not happy CCP/CSM have acted in this way. tall poppy syndrome.
CCP will probably lose a lot of accounts out of this, not out of protest, but just out of not needing to earn as much ISK,
I hope CCP retires the bus and makes the arrangement official, so that no misunderstanding can happen in the future.
Good Luck Somer, in whatever you do next - perhaps its time to do something new anyway, something that will make you earth rich.

Well if you know any short poppies that are currently giving out isk rewards for buying referral links, be sure to let us know and we'll cut those ones down too. But from where I'm standing it looks more like a weed being pulled. |
