Housing Lotto - New Plot Acquisition Method

[Sotaris]

Lottery isn't as bad an idea as people here are making it out to be, it isn't perfect but it IS still better than Placard Camping.

No matter how you slice it, there is no version where leaving the timer as it is would be a good scenario.

I disagree 100%. I think many first buyers would love to see when a plot is available vs clicking a placard for hours on end. I spent like 16 hours on my FC house and 14 hours on my personal, so had I known which hour it goes up for grabs, I could taken a nap.. do something else but being stressed out cause of competition/bots.

And there are still houses out there entirely empty save a pair of Deluxe Gardens on the Yard and an Aetheryte, wielded by a single-person FC with !!!!!! for a name.

And? What is your point here? If the houses is still staying up the person/s are using them.
