Would a raffle system be that hard?

Yeah, so the people who don't click the placard won't get a house. With a raffle system they'd get a chance, even if only a small one. How is this worse for them?

"They'd get a chance?"
They didn't have one before?
For people like this:

And what about all the people who want a house but don't want to camp the placard for hours?

They made their choice not to participate.
They have a chance and don't take it... so what about them?
But the conversation isn't about that. It isn't about the people who are sitting out and not trying to get a house.
Its wether a raffle system would give you a better shot at a house, and it would not because the people that do participate would all face a steep rise in competition.

If you are trying to get a house it will be harder to get a house with a raffle system.
