It strongly favors those players who have hundreds of millions of gil. Those who can barely scrape together three million for a small plot at current prices would have no chance. And yes, I know players at max level who don't have even one million. I don't know what they do with their money.

Even if you camp 'smart' and spend only 4 hours at each plot, if you win your 20th plot you've spent 80 hours. Go 10 hours on 30 plots, things get much uglier.
Yes, the current timer is stupid. That's been established many times over.
