You can't even code a simple random number picker correctly.

One: You're a horrible person for wishing joblessness on someone for a simple fixable mistake.

Two: You're completely wrong on the source of the problem anyway, the RNG did fine: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...7fcff58ee4f9c5

There's a lot of wishy washy language in that post. If you look at the 2nd part, they say a lot but don't exactly say what went wrong.

They say that it was a communication issue between the server that handles the lottery and the server that handles the housing data. Not sure how that is them not saying what went wrong.

Could have been a network issue.
Could have been a database deadlock of some sort (seems most likely if the lotteries were all done at the same time).

I'm not sure that any additional details would necessarily change anything. I guess I'm confused on what more you were expecting.

Exactly. I dont think peoplre should get fired for this error. Its just a senseless witch hunt and from the recent update it looks like theyre close to getting down with a proper solution.

Not to mention it wasn't even an RNG error as (apparently) every single armchair coder assumed it was on 4/16.
