We deserve a free house.
    Moronic take.

    This would only be a valid point of view if there were enough houses for every player to purchase one, and a select few were stuck waiting a couple weeks. But this is not what happened, there is still a majority of players that do not have a house that want one, mean while you are getting one for free and self righteously stating you deserve it for waiting a couple weeks while other lottery winners didn't.

    When I get a house I wassss going to build an airship/sub and make the exterior myself, but because of the housing zero I ended up buying the exterior for 3 million. I would have saved it and sold others I had made resulting lost profits of around 50 million gil. You don't understand the MB. Being first makes all the difference in who has 1000 or who has 1,000,000 gil. First to make exteriors is huge at 3 million a pop selling ten is 30 million gil do you understand this? If more people make the exterior what happens to the price? So the few extra weeks makes them millions and when I finally get to the board I make 1000's that's the difference .... and I quote "time is money" Who's take is moronic?

    Your thought process is correct but your logic is flawed.

    One, to build air ships and subs require money and credits to send them out. Then, they will have to find the sites where the mats are found in order for you to build the exterior.

    You will then have to get the mats together to build the exterior for yourself and yes, selling ANY new item on the MB will make you more profits then it would after the market has self corrected itself.

    To say you have lost 50 plus million isn't exactly true.. you lose the jump on the MB but that jump would have been slowed down while you build the airships and subs, sent them out for find new locations, waiting for them to bring you the mats, then waiting for you to build the exterior which will require even more mats then your airships and subs would have brought..

    I understand you missed the boat here for this swing of the market but it's not because of the bug in the system. You would have been behind from jump since you are starting new with building out your entire system.

    Also, you didn't HAVE to spend 3 million gil to get the exterior NOW.. you could have waited until the airships and subs were ready and brought you the mats, THEN built your exterior without giving away the profits to the person you bought it for. You spend 3 million gil for instant gratification. nothing more and nothing less.
