So to get a small personal house

Should logout in kugane near the aetherite around 8-9pm and then spam log-in around 2:40am-ish and go for like a middle to last ward?

Yeah that's pretty much it. Good luck and don't forget to set yourself to /busy :)

2:40am is pointless, as the servers absolutely 100% will not be coming up until 3am PDT and the launcher will need to be restarted post-maint in order for you to be able to click Play.

Edit: Of course, it will be available to download an hour or two before the servers come up, you just won't be able to launch the game until after 3 so spamming login is pointless.

The patch may be available for download early, so wouldn't hurt to give yourself an earlier start

Trying to log in earlier does help since you can download the patch before servers open up for play.

Good luck! I'm going to instead be trying for a relocated home in Lavender Beds or the Goblet.

Per the FFXIV Twitter:

Edit: I kind of misread the post I was responding to - it is definitely worth it to download the patch prior to 3:00 a.m., but they seem pretty stalwart with regard to the servers not coming up early.

Don't forget to sacrifice the finest lala you can get your hands on for a faster login.

Racism is strong here.

That comic is glorious. Do you have a source? I must see more.
