Personally , the only thing I don't like about boost is that you need a laptop. Most who run blinky are on a budget, and might not be computer inclined at all. The same way you can't stop progress in the boost world, you can't stop newbies with low to no boost skills from having a chance to participate ! Blinky is the only way for them, not that they won't graduate to the Mod boost world anytime soon ...
