How it works? I just need to tell my friends and let them subscribe to the outernet.is main page?
You must go to https://www.outernet.is/launch/ and sign up there. Once you sign up, youâll end up on a page (donât share that page, though) that allows you to share you custom sign-up link on social networks and send emails to others. There is no limit on how many friends you can invite, but you can only win each of the rewards once.
If you just tell your friends to subscribe, we canât know they subscribed thanks to you, so you wonât get any rewards.
Also, even if you are already subscribed to our mailing list, you can still sign-up and play. Just note that if you invite someone who has already subscribed, they wonât count as a referral, but they will be able to play, too.
Itâs possible to just use random email adresses, there is no test if the email adress is real.
If there would be a test like in a newsletter, it would still be possible to make 50 email adresses and confirm the test for each of these 50, but that would be a lot of work. Now itâs very easy.
You might have noticed that every time you sign-up, you get a âThank youâ message. We know if the email reached a legit inbox or not. If someone has lots and lots of referrals that use a bad email, we disqualify that user. We also disqualify any addresses that are fake, one-off, etc. Finally, weIâll scan the logs to catch anything other fishy activity like using bots to sign up âfriendsâ.
At any rate, it creates a lot of work for us, unfortunately. I wish people didnât do this.
A better way might be to let friends confirm like in newsletters. So it would be anyways possible to cheat, but I think less people would do it because of more work, so it would be less work for you.
And I apologize for the work I created for you and hopefully nobody get the idea to do it, too âŚ
The âtunerâ that was mentioned in the rewards section is actually just a combination of off-the-shelf components. The original wording might have been a bit misleading.
Youâve already seen the topic about how to build one. Thatâs the same thing.
