MAIN ISSUE:
According to the 6.1 Patch notes, housing sale cycles are supposed to take 9 total days, 5 days of lottery entry, and 4 days to claim. The patch dropped 12APR22 01:00 AM (GMT-10) so as of this post, it has only been 4 days and 13 hours of Lottery entry. There should have been another 11 hours at minimum when I logged in to allow me the chance to decide which plot I wanted to submit my 1 lottery ticket towards.
"Lotteries operate on a 9-day cycle (Earth time), and are divided into two periods.
Entry period:
The entry period lasts 5 days (Earth time), during which players may submit their lottery entries.
Results period:
The results period lasts 4 days (Earth time), during which players may confirm lottery results and finalize land purchases."

My concern is that beyond the "entry 0" issues or the "No entries this plot", no one is raising the hand and calling out that many of us who were still shopping around at the different plots were given the time we expected to put our entries in. right now the lottery boards are all resolved waiting on winners to claim, but there should have been another day of entries.
REQUESTED ANSWER FROM S.E.
Is there consideration of rolling back the lottery clock to give everyone the fair chance at all plots, or have the first round results been decided on and i will have to take the "L" and try the next lotto, with significantly less options?
