Post your housing result on... ??? Round!

I wonder how long will it take for the them to admit how this neighborhood system ain't doing good. Anyways:

# of players in the pool: 4
Me: #4
Winner: #1

Next!

The lotteries occur on a regular cycle of 9 days, with 5 days for entering and 4 for claiming if you win.
The easiest way to see what stage the current lottery is in is, from the main menu bar, Duty -> Timers, Estate tab, click "Housing Lottery status"

Now we're back to 1/200 chances until it fills up. Great system.

Lost 1/2 here, the worst part is that second bidder didnt place a bid until like 5 seconds left.

Anyways this has been the last time to have a minimal chance at getting a house, it will even be worse than before as many new people have jumped into the bidding train, so those few (if any) empty spots will now have the amount of bidders multiplied compared to before the ward change.

Wow I'm really glad the game does absolutely nothing to make this information known to me whatsoever!

Yeah there isn't really a properly visible schedule in game. There was a Lodestone post about the lottery recently:

https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...80775aa7705d93

From that you can count that entry periods end on 15/7 (today), 24/7, 2/8, 11/8 and so on at the same time as daily reset happens.

Edit: Tried to relocate my fc house to a medium (no personal mediums/larges left afaik) but lost against 30+ other bidders. Oh well.

Congrats on getting a house on a dead server. Quite an achievement.

This was the case for my plot.

I won. Weekend decorating here I come!

Hope you have better luck soon.

I finally won a small plot. Was ticket #1 of 3. House is in the Goblet with an MB and vendors just outside and a nice view of the canyon. This doesn't end here though. So very many people still do not have houses and this honestly needs fixing. Either larger apartments or more houses (instanced or otherwise) but something has to be done to fill the demand!

Wow, I got the house I wanted first time bidding! One shot! Can't wait to meet my neighbours!

Oh that's right lol I'm on oce

Bidder 2 of 3. Bidder 3 won. I've been entering every single cycle since more housing opened up and it's definitely very depressing. :/ I love this game and would love to be able to actually enjoy all aspects of it. Housing and gardening were something I was super excited about.

I've lost on all of my bids, but I was expecting to lose. I was happy to not stand around for hours on end though.

Well I'm so mad that the plot I lose on bid before, nobody claimed it! Such a waste of time really... :mad:
