Doesn't appear to be fixed. Still seeing "current participants: 1" followed by "There were no participants in this lottery".

Did they post this accidentally too early? Word around discord is no one's has been fixed yet.

For the house my fc bidded as the only bidders it still shos 0 as Winner. Did someone manage to buy a House that was previously bugged?

[Greyhawk]

Wrong.

Seeing the same thing Theta is. Just logged in, went to check and see the same thing as before.

[HuaTuo]

every1 I've spoken to says its still broken and they are worried heavily by the "no further action will be taekn" bit

[Markfresh]

So its like they have put out the post that should be "after" they have done the testing and maintenance and it all working.
Seriously , why post that.

[Bunnycake]

Maybe a mistranslation?

This is what I think happened, because Yoshi's third follow up from today specifically says that World maintenance is required for this segment of the fix.

Restoring Lottery Data

The lottery data that exists on the server responsible for processing results will be used to overwrite the housing server so that the correct data is reflected. This will be done at the same time that fixes for the issue are implemented, and will require a maintenance period for all Worlds. Maintenance times will be shared as soon as we have determined them.

That's not a mis-statement. They're saying that players whose plots went through the lottery process correctly and who haven't already claimed said plot, to claim it ASAP. They said this in the previous update as well since the fewer data points to consider will make it easier for them to process everything.

I wouldn't be surprised if they're preparing to patch and want to make sure people who are able to claim their plot right now don't have issues due to the patch.
