I agree that the lottery system will be a terrible system but without the ability to trade up for a better plot through relocation I fail to see any value left in the current placard system. I'd rather see the lottery system be universal rather than have placard camping remain in any form. The 24hr hidden timer and bot competition is easily the worst and most sadistic system I've seen in an MMO.

Since we can't get instanced housing and we have to have dead neighborhoods though, we just get one bad decision piled onto the next with XIV's housing.
