This will happen sometime between now and the 29th, once they've got the error fixed.

Anyone who gets a plot from this current round will have won it legitimately. The mechanism worked correctly, it was "simply" an error in communicating the win data to the server that controls housing. Nobody's going to get a plot they shouldn't have gotten due to this bug.
That's not what I had asked, really just "when will we get the plot thing working again" and "can people who got a refund get a house?". So thank you on that front. Otherwise yeah, I understood how this bug happened from what SE explained. It's not an issue with the array itself like people thought, but rather the part that displayed results.

Because I did think "It's gonna take up to 5 business days to implement a fix, it's gonna happen in 3 stages, everyone will get their plot if they rolled for it". But then I saw people say that we weren't getting houses at all, that this was just to delay the thing until they implemented the fix for people who kept their money in the placard... so I just got incredibly confused, and people replying to me in-game saying that stuff was vague didn't help at all.
