Post your housing lottery result for this 6.3 1st round!

[Pablomaldito]

I shotgunned 12 bids into this lottery.... and it ended when I was 1 hour into a 13 hour flight. I have only just now learned the results. Numbers-wise, I fared pretty poorly. But I'm very happy because I won where it counted most:

Balmung
Personal medium in Goblet. I was #1, there were 3 bids going into the last day. RNGesus rolled a 1. Glorious Victory!
Backup personal small in Goblet on my alt: Was the only bidder going into the last day. Apparently a last minute bidder joined in and won the house. This is actually a favorable outcome for me since I can now claim a full refund for a plot that I would not have purchased due to my main character's victory.
FC medium in Mist: I thought I had it locked down with 4 bids while the mediums around me had 3. Bidder #5 joined and won.

Zalera:
Small personal in Shirogane: Had 2 alts bid on it. Lost to bidder #3
Poolside small FC in Goblet: 3 bids. Lost

Goblin
Small personal in Empyreum: Sole bidder to the end. The only one that didn't face competition.

Terrible luck with my FC bids, but I'm happy to have ended up with a house on Balmung.

I won my house. Sweated after working a double.

Mao won medium in Goblets. Mao is so happy. So much space inside. So far Mao has yard and main floor finished. New house skin looks GOOD!

Looked around not really sure I wanted to bid or not, but thinking this might be a good time to get a house if I ever intended to.

Noticed all the houses where there were commonly a lot of bids (5-8) and which had 2 or 1, and then I noticed specific Small plots (undesired, I guess?) across all the wards and subdivisions of the different City-States would often have 0 bids. That is, each city seemed to have some plots that just no one really wanted.

I compared those and found the one that I kind of thought had a decent view and location despite other people not wanting it, and then I picked the one with the higher number (subdivision) from one of the middle Wards (I figured 25 and 30, first or last, would be where people went first, so by picking one kind of in the middle, it'd be one of the last places people went if the others filled up). Mentally, I figured I'd probably lose and just go get my Gil later, and I'm not super rich (have less than 20M) but not dirt poor (have greater than 10M), so I could afford to slap some Gil into the lottery to pick it up in a few days when I lost.

...then I didn't lose.

So now I have a Small house to put all those external decorations I've gotten over 9 years of playing and to move the interior stuff I crammed into my Apartment into. It's not a Large. It's not a Medium. It's not in a premium, highly in demand location. But perhaps because of those reasons, I think I like it more, and because of those reasons, I was able to win it - no one else bid on it.

Good luck to you all. o/

Won my bid on Empy W27 P41.

If I weren’t misremembering, I was fighting a 50 | 50 and somehow Mother Nymeia decided to forsake the other bidder. Feels bad, but it can’t be helped.

Either way this is a pleasant surprise especially after several days spring cleaning to prepare for LNY… it’ll be a while before I can really start thinking about what sort of theme I want to go for, much less to decorate them in next couple of days.

I WON LARGE PLOT!



Goodbye Roegadyn flexing view, you will be missed...

You made this post just so you could show off you won a large. I see through you. Kinda sad really

Transferred to Elemental - Tonberry before lottery for new plots began and successfully won a medium. Was the first to bid, one of my acquaintances got greedy and used their alt character to bid on mine, so I thought it was a 50/50 between me and them. Went to my house 2 minutes after lottery results were in only to see three people /playdead next to my placard and realised they were last minute bidders. So I was bidding against 3-4 people in total, and I still bloody won! HAHAHAHA! SUCKERS!

I don’t think so, he made the forum post at 3:50 and the results were at 4

It looks like there are a lot more people reporting losses than last time. Is the system this scuffed, or are there just that many people around this time than the previous one?

Leave the salt at the table, friend.
