Or they put a bid in on a large with 100 other people and sealed their own fate.

For players just joining the game since after the last housing release, they have a right to be frustrated. Everyone else? Less so.

When (if?) new housing comes out, SE should restrict the first lottery period to players without a current plot. If a current owner wants in on the lottery for a large, they'll need to demo their house before the new housing comes out - which would free up another plot for another player.
Lets say if the new ward releases, and it looks cool and theres a plot i really want. Oh sorry you cant place a bid because you already own a plot, imagine if you got locked out of getting a Shirogane plot you really liked because you unknowingly made the mistake of buying a plot in the mist before you knew what the next housing zone looked like.

So lets say a players wants to bid on a large plot, so they demolish their plot in hopes of winning out a bid of 60+ people...And they don't win the plot... You now have less then what you started for taking that risky gamble. You're out of a home and have nothing to show for it.
