I imagine SE's decision on whether or not to suspend the timer is based on how much of their player base is going to be affected by a disaster. For example, they probably aren't going to suspend it if there's a natural disaster in South America; they just don't have a very large player base there compared to Japan or NA. I think it's good that they suspend the timer, though it was probably for too long this time.

It's all world based so just going by one world for examples sake, if you have a personal house and you're IN an fc (don't have to be leader of an fc with a house, just in an fc with a house) you will be unable to purchase additional personal houses on that world and you cannot purchase an fc house for a different fc on that world. That's going by what was stated in the live letter translation. However the patch notes didn't specify just being in an fc blocking further purchase so we'll probably have to wait for the housing site to go up or just finding out from peoples' experience after the patch goes live.

Still nothing about the 40 interactable furnishing limit? Having to bang my face against glass wall of my fish tank to see it just because I have too much painting on upstairs is very frustrating and annoying.

Yeah, they keep adding interactive items and then I have to remove something to add the new item in or stuff starts disappearing grrr....

I can understand if you own a personal home and is owner of a FC home. that would equal one per world. But by just joining a fc that have a house? Thats ludacris (Not accusing you or attacking you just saying how silly it sounds)
