Ishgard Housing No Lottery For Wards

[Daeriion_Aeradiir]

Your chance may has gone down. But the chance of hundreds of other players who simply can't or even don't want to rush the district in the first 10 minutes or camp placards is now above 0.

And there was still a non-zero chance in FCFS people can find a house no one is competing for, or walk in, press the placard for <5mins and get it even with competition. My friend got their house doing exactly that. No spamming, just walked up and bought it within 5 mins with four others camping it, by simply only trying for 10mins a day at any given plot since he had a busy IRL and didn't want to commit to long hours of camping. One of my old FCs got their house finding a small that had no competition on it and bought it when it was up, with no idea how long it had been available for when someone logged in to try that day.

Even without the desire to camp for long hours or rush in the first 10mins, the odds of getting a house in FCFS were never 0 with diligence to try for even just 5mins a day. With lottery however, they have just been dropped to <1% universally (statistically making it so the infinitely vast majority will go 20+ lotteries without getting a house, and many more will go without ever seeing a house for literal years when they might have stood a chance in FCFS) for everyone, acting as a simple punishment for people with diligence.
