Exactly; I feel the same way.

I missed out during 4.1 Shirogane to relocate from the Lavender Beds to there, but I was more so just angry because of all the issues the launcher/the servers were having, less so because I didn’t get my house—well, get to upgrade because I was in a small at the time (looking back though, that was a cute little small; I did love it quite a bit, and it was one I had happened upon by complete chance back in Heavensward—Lavender Beds, Ward 3, Plot 14 :3). That time and this round, I had 4 plots lined up that I wanted, and they were actually in 2 different districts (I avoided Shirogane completely, deciding to focus primarily on the plots I liked in the Lavender Beds and looking at a couple around the new Swimming area in the Goblet). I got really lucky this time, and I am also damn well pleased. But I went in expecting to have to possibly take a house lower on my list (or even one not on it at all), not expecting to land my dream home with zero issues/competition.
