But because no one knows when that time is they spam so they're the first to catch it. The game does not in any way say "you have to spam to get the plot". It's not an active time event.
I had a plot open up right next to me in my ward in Shirogane a day last week. At least 6 people from the same FC were there, spamming the placard, all with their busy status on. Some random solo miqo'te just runs up and wins it, and proceeds to turn it into a bath house. lol I felt pretty bad for that FC, but...it's the name of the game. Gotta be persistent, or just be in the right place at the right time. It's hard for some to really understand that I guess unless they've seen it first hand.
