    Christ Almighty, this system is so bad
    Yeah, I went back to check and most I could have gotten were already gone, I have to wait until tomorrow. And there is at least one person at almost every plot, I don't know if there will even be any left tomorrow.. Don't think I've ever felt so left out by a housing system, until this game. I have too many houses in other games.

    Even if you see people, try making a round or two through plots trying to buy only once per round.
    I got a house that way. Although to be fair I didn't care where I'd get one and if I decided to move to another ward I could just pay to relocate.

    For the kind of content small private estate/housing wards offer, the stress of camping specific spots and placards really, really isn't worth it.

    Quite a lot of plots still in the Goblet on my server Zodiark, and timers have mostly expired now, just snatched it up when I decided to log in for 10 minutes. No waiting or camping necessary.

    Not the case on Excalibur. In fact, most of the houses that were available at my time of posting last night are gone. I have searched ward by ward. The only things that are left now are a few with a 3 hour timer. Every single plot had a timer.

    ... and about 2-4 bots sitting right outside them, scripting the sale, am I right?

    That's what it is on Levi right now.

    I am making my runs through the wards, while waking up, and making breakfast. I have finished the Lavender Beds, for example. I have been marking notes in notepad, so I can keep track of backup locations in 3 hours. In the LB there are 4 smalls available TOTAL, 2-3 people camping each one.

    I'd prefer a house in the Lavender Beds, but I doubt I'll get one. I am kind of OCD, in that my character's city state is gridania, so I want my house in gridania. Hopefully I can find an alternative.

    Update: So far, Goblet has 2-3 campers per house as well.

    And it's EVERY ONE -- and most of them have the frown face (Do Not Contact). I mean, they have more gil than basically any legitimate player and can just park and script.

    You basically almost HAVE TO break the TOS right now to even THINK of getting player housing.

    Finished my evaluation of The Goblet. There are 20 small plots available, only 2 (at the time of typing) without at least 1-3 people camping it, with, as you say, the frown face. Every single house has a timer. Moving on to The Mist. Will go back in in another 40 minutes to an hour to reevaluate, and choose a location. If I can't get a house in a couple hours, I will have wasted my early morning.

    Update: In total there are 5 small plots available in The Mist. Each with 2-3 camping them. Unless some of these people are legitimate, and actually afk, I expect all available housing to be purchased in under 2 hours. Kugane housing has 0 available plots, as expected.

    To wrap it all up, there are 29 available SMALL plots on Excalibur - with a timer of just under 2 hours.

    A perk of playing on a dead server.
