I have seen how this goes on my server. The almost whole population of housebuyers, bid on the S-tier houses on the same lot in the same wards,
leaving the other L and M houses on 0 bids.
Meanwhile crying they didnt win and because of that the housing system is crap, jada jada jada.

Well, i did win. A Large house. With 1 bid on it for 5 days. Mine. I have decorated and enjoying the view now. Very happy with it.
I just hope that all the houses that still have no owners in my ward, will fill up in the coming weeks, when people actually wake up and see that there still enough to choose from. But yeah, its not on the spot they want it, so the whole system is crap. Meanwhile half wards with a shitload of empty plots will remain how they are.

Ah well, what do I know. Im just an elitist, right?

The highlighted is the part of this I don't really get. I mean, at least there IS some choice for the moment.

Prior to the new wards being added I was having to throw bids at whatever plots happened to become free, with between 25 - 55 other players bidding on the same plot.
I was at least given the opportunity to be selective, and bid on a plot I actually wanted, rather than just throw a bid at random plot XX just because that was all there was.
