    I hope mine will and others who also were the only people to bid on an fc house to get their fc house. They were the ones who locked content, fc buffs, and numerous other things behind this system. Waking up to this was not fun and honestly went onto the ever growing list of things making me wish to quit the game entirely. I enjoy it enough, and love spending time with my friends in this place, but many things pile on top of each other and make the reasons for staying less and less each time.

    I'm sure they'll announce their decided procedure via the lodestone once they've sorted through the bugs. Until then the GMs/Community Team aren't going to have anything to respond with.

    Ya'all on that hard copium if you think you are getting house after the fact or they will do a roll back. Its going to go exactly like this...

    1) New system, bugs happen "our bad".

    2) Lotto fixed now, GL on your next bids.

    It sucks, its unfair but life is unfair. Video games aren't an exception.

    Housing rage has and always will continue until every single person who wants a house gets ones. Which in all likelihood will NEVER happen. Yoshi P has taken a firm no stance on instanced housing wards because he wants housing based around social interactions and community. He will NEVER do it.

    I think you some of you are getting way too technical and some of the posts are convoluted when they need not be. A lot of people make great points, but regardless of what they did, the RNG code is created by a person, and they inputted 0 as one of the possible choices for output. I have coded in Python and Mathematica before, and if you import random, and then you list the parameters, e.g. list=1,2,3,4,5... It is pretty easy to see, that when they listed their parameters for the housing lottery system, they included 0 (zero) in the list of possible choices that could be rolled. If they did in fact did put zero into their list, as in: listhousing or list1 (whatever you want to call it) = 0,1,2,3,4,5..., when as stated earlier, it should have been list1=1,2,3,4,5...

    If what I stated is correct, then in all fairness, they should roll back EVERYONE's bids, because if 0 (zero) was counted as a possible RNG choice, then EVERY roll is invalidated and needs to be done again. I know it sucks for some people, but in all fairness, if zero (0) was included, then redoing it is the most fair solution.

    Yeah almost every MMO would do it this way. It's rough but it is what it is.

    Why? I think I explained it pretty clearly. So, you don't want a fair system? For example, if you participated in a giveaway, and you were the only person that showed up to the giveaway, but when they chose the winning number (your number should be the only one put into the giveaway), the people running it say, "Oh, I am sorry, I know you are the only person here, but we pulled a zero as the winner of the giveaway, and therefore you don't win, and you get nothing. Sounds pretty ludicrous doesn't it?

    You should realize bugs are part of any game and even mmos and even though its unfair and it sucks crap like this happens. Posting the same thing copy paste on every single thread doesnt change that fact.

    It was an obvious coding bug or goof up it will get fixed, life will go on. Saying it multiple times across every thread doesn't make it any more valid.
