    Both. The lack of available plots was compounded by the timer suspension. 200+ plots still isn't very many when you take into account each server's population, most of which will still be homeless after this housing blitz. Were this a few years back, I would bet even the Goblet would still have smalls a couple weeks later. Now people will take whatever they can get in the hopes of getting what they actually want later. The player base and housing demand have only grown with time.

    But at least now there would be regular turn-over right? Meaning, at least now, within a week, if I check, there would always be 1 or 2 empty small plots available due to regular demolition, rather than 0?

    Potentially anything could open at any time now...but that can't be counted on, no. There is no guarantee of any plots opening up in a week.

    So near, and yet so far... lost out to a bot that's still there, clicking away at the sign despite having bought it hours ago. Happened to a friend, too.

    I hope the cheaters enjoy their houses.

    My friend lost her house because Square made an accounting error and dragged their feet on restoring her account. We have called written and done live chat. This is ridiculous, we got the same please be patient for 2 months now she lost her house. Squares customer service is non existent and their policies ridiculous

    Kind of bittersweet that so many houses opened up, it's good because we get more first time housing owners and it's a great feeling getting a house for the first time, but it's also kind of sad when you realize that a lot of those deleted houses were owned by people who are now currently jobless, homeless, or no longer among us.

    Every ward in The Goblet on Leviathan has at least one plot open, none have been available to buy, I already had to report a botter, and there's someone who owns a plot right by a empty one trying to buy up said empty one. (Plot 58 ward 21 if your curious)

    Christ Almighty, this system is so bad

    Yeah, I went back to check and most I could have gotten were already gone, I have to wait until tomorrow. And there is at least one person at almost every plot, I don't know if there will even be any left tomorrow.. Don't think I've ever felt so left out by a housing system, until this game. I have too many houses in other games.

    Even if you see people, try making a round or two through plots trying to buy only once per round.
    I got a house that way. Although to be fair I didn't care where I'd get one and if I decided to move to another ward I could just pay to relocate.

    For the kind of content small private estate/housing wards offer, the stress of camping specific spots and placards really, really isn't worth it.
