You know, I actually find this hilarious, but I also wanted to see this fail in the first place, because it was a stupid idea from the start. Not only I don't get why out of MYRIAD of other choices and ideas, they chose to go with the one that fixes the least number of problems housing have but okay, I could live with it. But sheer EXECUTION of it exceeded my expectations on how hard they can fail it.

So first game-breaking bug won't allow you to relocate your FC house if you were the one who bought it in the past and if you also have a private house, because placard doesnt differentiate whether you buying to relocate or a first-time buyer, therefore it considers you if you are buying third time. And NOW lottery just bugs out again and number 0 wins it.

It's just... I don't know. Whole housing team of SE should be fired after this. Imagine being the person to not exclude 0 as an option in the algorithm. Id quit my job the very second.

But like I said, my heart sings. Because I've been telling from the very start that lottery fixes nothing. It doesn't fix housing shortage, it doesn't make houses easier to obtain. It only makes it more "fairer" by throwing you against other one hundred poor souls who decided to throw their name into the hat and hope for the best. It is better in ONLY ONE aspect. You don't have to stay in front of placard for hours, damaging your health and sanity, battling against botters and occasional relocators who bypass the system.

It doesn't fix the main problem -- you won't get a house. And as it seems, other bidders are not your only nemesis. Game itself is.

GG again, SE. You never cease to amaze.
