Apologies if this has been brought up before but I cannot find any other relevant threads.

Seen a few FC and personal plots not in Emperyum become vacant but when I click on the placard to see if it can be bought or bid on it has the above message. The character in question meets all the requirements and has the gil. I've seen a few other folks standing around one in a particularly prime location.

Is this a bug or are all plots now on the same lottery schedule?
