    Good point...they don't really want FCFS, they want to preserve relocation. I feel there pain, but don't agree with them...I have medium in the goblet that my character will likely live in until the day he dies.

    You have my appreciation for your stance on this issue. You are taking the high road and promoting a fair system for all despite the very real possibility that it may hurt your future chances at getting better housing.

    I'm also a huge supporter of instanced housing. I like having cool stuff in games, but unlike many, I have no desire to block others from getting them because of "mUh eXCLusIvIty".

    The flaw with this logic is that relocation is already dead, regardless of buying system chosen.

    In preparation for the lottery sale system scheduled to be implemented in Patch 6.1, it will no longer be possible to relocate an estate to plots of land that are not yet ready for purchase. ~ 6.0 patch notes.

    So saying they're arguing for preserving relocation is false. It's impossible to relocate to a plot without playing the same game as everyone else is in FCFS. So anyone arguing in those threads is arguing purely on the pros & cons of FCFS vs Lottery.
    Personally, FCFS makes more sense on patch drop, then lottery after that plot has been purchased at least once, gives people way better odds than lottery does. If nothing else, it'll be amusing to see the wakeup call for the people thinking lottery will help them get a house when the first lottery set goes up and people see a list of over a hundred entries for any given plot, and they're still left without a home after when they might have actually had a realistic shot if they were willing to wake up for 5mins in the morning of the patch drop.
