SE need to tighten the rules because I know alot of people will be making alts on those worlds to harvest additional FC's with for their own selfish reasons....
Because in short time people will complain again about to few houses, while some has 2 or above.

They should have a fair amount of data gathered from lottery sales about what the actual demand is for FC versus personal. While people are expecting a 50/50 split, could be that SE will reserve only 1 or 2 of the new wards in each district if they feel actual FC demand is mostly met for now.Quote:

It's not going to remove demand for more medium and large houses but hopefully almost everyone who actually wants a house should be able to get a house of some type. -

11-13-2022, 04:26 AMVerdeLuckIt is a shame, I moved to Dynamis to hopefully get a house but it looks like all the personals will be taken in the next lottery. When these new wards come out you get exactly 2 lotteries to get the small you want and then it's just all gone.Quote:

Are you on Maduin? We have many mediums and smalls still available.

11-13-2022, 05:25 AMVerdeLuckNo Hallicarnassus, and between all 4 areas the mediums and larges are all gone and about half the smalls are gone in a single round. I haven't missed a single round of bidding since lottery started on my original world and still haven't manged to win a small.Quote:

Making housing as easy to get as it is now means there is a healthy as possible population to draw from. People having housing gives them roots to ensure it's easier to keep them on the DC.
If you lock housing until completion of EW, then the population drops and shatters, and the queues get worse.
Are you really sure? I just jumped on Hali this second and did a genuine manual count just looking at 13-24 main and subdivisionQuote:

We have 251 mediums empty on Hali, 12 larges, and maybe 70% of smalls still vacant.
Shiro is the busiest, but there are a tonne of empty houses, especially smalls outside of shiro. If you really want one, same advice for years, get the worst and upgrade in the next round or in January. Don't hold out for a LB41 then throw up your hands saying "no haus left, I give up" -
