    The one and only time I redeemed a Nerkmid, I got a Normal Golden Nerkmid from a RE, then got a Basic Golden Nerk and sold that. :D

    I've tried this a few times and found it to be a huge waste of money. All I've ever gotten was basically your results, low np and gross food.

    Doing nerkmids really isn't worth it. Just sell them and use the money to restock more :)

    That's rubbish. D:

    Has anyone recorded lots of results to see the percentage of the results?

    Not exactly a list of results, well not in the slightest, but it does say that it's completely random.

    No word of a lie, i once hacked a users account, i then posted sexual messages trying to get the account frozen, and in the mean time i bought a nerkmid with the 300k he had.
    I used it and won a pink paint brush.... but the account got frozen before i could do anything :(

    Hmm, I know a few people who have won paint brushes. They don't seem THAT rare to get. I guess you just have to be really lucky.

    Well, you have to consider your profit margin.

    What are you putting in, and how much does it cost?

    What are you getting in return, and how much does it cost?

    From what most people are saying, the profit margin usually comes back negative.

    I was addicted to using Nerkmids at one stage.. I have literally used hundreds.

    I did get a few good returns but I would still be in the millions of negatives...

    IMO, not worth it. And I still never got a high NP return for a trophy...

    Yeah I usually used approx 20 nerkmids per reset day... (Sometimes I went a bit crazier and used more :p) Then random ones throughout the month...

    I did end up with a second or third place trophy on one of my accounts at one point... But considering the number I used, and only ever got one trophy on one account.. thats pretty poor :p

    I'd still use them if I got them... I have a weird addiction.. like I know its a waste and bad for me.. but I'll do it anyway. They need Nerkmids users anonymous :p
