Housing Lottery Issue

Same thing on Leviathan. 4 bids, it rolled a 0. My FC had three of those bids, and to say we are frustrated is an understatement...

Please re-run the affected lotteries without pushing us to another four-day cycle with increased competition. We did everything right and should not be punished for this error.

Except those of us who legitimately thought we lost and withdrew our funds ARE going to be penalized for this error because we won't be able to reenter unless they open the plots to entries again which they need to do.

0 here, and I was the only entry.

SE, please ask your programmer to read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-by-one_error

if you bid against no one you won against 0, but.... if you were bidding actively against other people the first person that bid on the house won. It's no different from FCFS, this was no lottery, this was another scam!
First the pizza emote, now housing T_T

There were 12 bids on the plot we went for and it said "No Participants in this lottery" if thats there way of saying not every house is available each cycle then why have them all open ????

Exactly, I made the same mistake. But I know we were the first FC to actually bid on it.

So, we got our winning plot. Moved over, all was good. However, There was this issue that the house exterior is unable to be dye'd. or at least, we dyed, but its not reflecting the color at all.

Same on brynhildr

Great my main class SAM ruined for me with the changes, having to deal with racism and parse shaming in-game is another... bet my hopes on Housing lottery at least that's still going for me and as the sole bidder I lost to number 0? I am the only bidder what the actual... I need a wake up call on why I am actually still playing...

I had the same issue on Exodus. I was the only one to bid on an FC plot, rolled a 1 lost to a 0. I took screen shots but ended up taking the Gil back. Maybe they can see we were supposed to win these plots, take the gil and give us the plots since it has to be a coding error or something.
