Another week another overview.

Another week has passed and it is time for an update on my earnings. First though I would like to share that I got lucky in the treasure hunt in Dungeons and Treasures this morning and earned an astounding 10000 gold. Those that has followed my blog from the beginning will know that, that is more than I had in total at the last gold conversion.

Anyways, here are my current earnings:

Surveyhead: 7.85$

Clixsense : 4.74$

Neobux: 0.355$

Dungeons and Treasures: 363 982 gold. (This is currently processing for conversion.)

Mysurvey: 105 points (115 points is 1€)

Global Test Marked: 70 points (1000 points is 50$)

All in all 12.945$ and then some. :)

As you can see not that much improvement from last week. So far it looks like the surveys are what earns the most, so I might see if I can't sign up for some more of those.

Otherwise it looks like I will need to get into the whole referral business for real. I am currently checking out the options on getting more referrals.

Dungeons and Treasures - Basic how to earn money playing the game.

Time to go a bit more into my current favourite "paid to" scheme.

Dungeons and Treasures

I have mentioned before that this is kind of an oldschool dungeon crawler, but the game is a bit broader than this.

When you first start out the game you are giving 500 gold. Make sure you spend it on a decent sword. There is a player marked and you can usually find a "Solid Sword" for a reasonable amount. If you are lucky you will also be able to afford a "Potion of Learning" on the first day. The trick to making a lot of gold from the page seems to be to level up as fast as possible because your character level affects the dungeon level. The higher the dungeon level the more gold you can make. If you have a look at the screen shot below you will see exactly what I mean. (note the gold earned does not include gains from chest keys or items that you sell).

As you can see I didn't make it past 50 so far and as I only have one day left of the the month, before the levels are reset I don't believe I will. It is however my goal for next month to get as high level as possible so I will be investing my gold in "Potion of Learning +2" as soon as I have the gold for it.

Aside from dungeon crawling I have a few daily routines on the site that I would recommend taking up:

The Temple:

Make sure you visit the temple every day and pray as you can get lucky and win gold doing this. Here is a list of my last 10 visits.

The Treasure Hunt:

Every day you can get one free ticket to the treasure hunt. Once you have claimed it go to the map and click any spot that is not yet blacked out. You usually get something, either a bit of gold or a key for the chest room. It seems you can also win real money as the Jackpot, but I have yet to be that lucky.

The Contest Clicks:

This is a bit more time consuming. The game runs contests over a period of time. (Current one is from 22^th of october to 2^nd of november). Whenever you refresh the page, there is a chance of a small icon spawning and flashing somehwere on the site.

If you click it a small window will open telling you how many tickets you have won. You can then go to the contest clicks page and scratch your tickets.

Each one will give you a number of Esteem points. By the end of the competition you will be rewarded gold or even star points based on your rank. Star points are really nifty because they can be used to purchase more dungeons. The contest click competition is one of the only ways to obtain star points without having to spend real money.

That was a basic rundown of the game. I might be looking into other details at a later date and maybe add some more advice on how to maximise your earning potential, once I have a better idea of this myself! :)

As a side note I am currently sitting on 338112 gold and I can't wait to see what that will be converted to in a couple of days.

Jackpot!

Okay so I have 2 things to share.

The first thing is a piece of really great news.

Last wednesday I won in the Clixgrid game and this time it wasn't just 0.25$, no I won 2.50$ a sum that you could actually buy stuff for. It is 2 and a half liter of milk, 6 apples or a return bus ticket.

The win more than doubled my current earnings on the site and I now have 4.24$, this of course is still a long way from anything I can actually get cashed out, but I still feel I am much closer to the goal. Yay me!

The second thing I want to talk about is something I briefly touched upon in a previous blogpost. I have been looking around for alternative method of making money on the internet and one of the things I came across was Dungeons and Treasures. http://dungeons-treasures.com/inscription.php?c=1&p=55885

Now this may sound a bit weird to most sane people, but I actually really enjoy this game. Here is a small breakdown.

The game is an oldschool dungeon crawler a little like a very simplified version of Eye of The Beholder, without the story part. You have a character that can gain levels and get better equipment. Each day you can visit the tavern and get access to a dungeon. In the dungeon you will find items and gold on the floor which you can pick up and you will of course have to fight monsters to level up and to be able to explore the entire dungeon.

Yeah, yeah you are probably thinking, but what about the money? Well remember the gold I mentioned? Each month your gold is converted to real money and once you have enough you can cash out. Sounds pretty awesome right?

Well before you go crazy there are a few things to mention. Whenever a monster damages you, you get 1 wound. When you reach 6 wounds you loose a life. You only have 3 lives per day. Furthermore you can only get one dungeon per day, so once you are done exploring that you have to wait for the next day to get a new one and continue earning money. Lastly the conversion of gold to real money is of course not very high so you have to earn a good deal of gold to get enough to cash out, however personally I am having fun playing! :)

Last month I only go to play a tiny bit which meant I only had around 8k at the time of conversion. That has left me with 0.021$

Dungeons and Treasures is advertising that you get some benefits from referring people and I really wanted to try out whether that was true or not so I asked my mom if she would help me out. As she is awesome, she of course said yes immediately and signed up with me as her Godfather (heh). At the moment it seems that I am getting 30% of her earned gold added to my stack which is actually pretty cool. So far she has earned me about 7k in 3-4 days. I am still curious to see if this page will actually cash out once I reach 10$, but so far I have gotten what it says on the tin.

One funny little thing about the game is that it was originally french and the translations on the page is sometimes pretty funny, but if the site is actually going to pay me for something I find entertainment I am not going to complain about it.

Feel free to sign up using the referral link http://dungeons-treasures.com/inscription.php?c=1&p=55885 and help me check if the site actually pays. (or don't use the referral link, I wont be angry I promise. Just slightly disappointed :P )

On a final note. Yes my mom plays video games and yes she is pretty frigging amazing! :)

Quick update regarding "earnings"

Just a quick update on my current earnings. Below is a list of money, I will go more indept with which sites and such later when I have more time! :)

0.021 $
0.076 $
1.658 $
6.60 $

In total almost 10 $. No payouts available from any of them for quite some time yet though :(

More I need more!!!

So after celebrating my initial "success" with Clixsense (1.5$ and growing!) I sobered a bit. The page wont do payouts until I have collected 10$. With my current speed of earnings that means another 8 months or so before I see any actual real cash. That is not good enough, so I have set out to find other ways to make my 10€. I am going to race the cash out at Clixsense with other alternatives. Today I signed up for Neobux. So far I have managed to click myself to 0.015$. The site however promises payout at 2$, which hopefully means it wont be too long before I see the cash rolling in. Furthermore I signed up for multiple "get paid to for taking surveys" schemes and a single "play and get paid" site. The clever business woman branches out.. ;) 

I will keep you up to date!
