Would a raffle system be that hard?

[Vahlnir]

Ok look. Suppose we have 1000 people, 100 of which are willing to camp a placard. The odds are like so:
100 people have 1% chance of getting a house
900 people have 0% chance of getting a house

Now we move to a raffle system and everyone can participate. Now the odds are:
1000 people have 0.1% chance of getting a house

For 100 people the odds became worse, but for 900 people they became better because they had no chance at all before.

Why do most people look at this only from the perspective of the "privileged" few who can spend their days repetitively clicking the placard or use keyboard macro programs (which are against the ToS)?

Now add 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 thousand onto that number, possibly more. On each server. Sure, the odds still dictate that it could happen, but the chances are so small that it really doesn't matter. That doesn't make it better than the current system. It doesn't improve anything at all. What we need are actual fixes, not impossible, hopeless dreams. This isn't about the "privileged few". This is about everyone.
