How do People Know Whenever there's a new Lottery?

[YukikoKurosawa]

*snip*

It's literally hidden. There is nothing the game does to inform you of this feature before or after you've unlocked access to housing districts.

"In this game, you kind of have to figure things out as you play"

No that's having a critical source of information be hidden and made impossible to find out on your own other than by sheer accident

"something that is frustrating but "encourages community"

What community? Disparate discord cliques are not a community

"TBH if you haven't played long enough to figure this sorta stuff out, do you really need a house? (sarcasm of course)."

xD XD XD XD xD "HAHAHAHAHAHA you didn't know about the thing that is critical to finding out when a new lottery starts, which only me and other cliques know about but kept to ourselves to avoid competition and could never have figured out yourself through normal means HAHAHAHAHA" xD XD XD XD XD XD XD

"But yeah, it's a very common and frequently used feature for most players."

I severely doubt this.

I'm reminded of why I don't talk to anyone in this game.
