New lottery system will only get worse from here and solves no REAL issues.

But hey, listen, how would more people get to buy up entire wards if not for SE using the lottery system as an excuse to block private buyers from said wards?

Personal houses should've been limited to 1 per service account long ago anyways, but that's a completely different issue that they should've already resolved.

It resolved itself on its own.

They have been limited so. I'm not alluding to the few that were grandfathered in. People are getting around it right now, as always, with multiple accounts and FC ownership. And probably no small number of them will make their way to the RMT markets.

Ironically, if SE hadn't blocked private owners from the vast majority of land, it would be harder for the RMTers - since they'd at least have competition. Instead, ward takeovers are trivially easy for the people with multiple accounts and front FCs - because that's beyond what even most very dedicated players can do.

While new ward takeovers have been made easier by the lottery, you can't say it's currently beyond dedicated players. It's not true.

Dedicated players absolutely do have a chance at new ward takeovers that they didn't under FCFS. Even a brand new primal starting today has time to aim for a whole ward on the new EU servers in 2023. Materia DC provides a perfect opportunity for a dedicated beginner willing to put in that time to fund an EU takeover.

New challenge for the primals... aim for an entire 24 wards of Goblet.

Yes, we have to abolish the lottery system and come up with something even worse for entertainment purposes! Seriously, who needs cable TV when you have the OF.
