Worst housing system in history

[sagacious]

i think theres a lot of words that you dont understand or im speaking to someone who doesnt speak the language natively. Lottery = luck , again you could have 1 Trillion Gil it does NOT gurantee you will win a house . You could have cleared everything in the game day 1 first hour for 10 years in a row again it does NOT mean you will win a plot. What you do has nothing to do with you winning the house except luck.

on top of that your assumptions based on that quote I cleared ultimate and savage raids , i own a fc house and a personal house . You tried hard but you failed every possible direction on whatever you were saying

I use to live in NA and never could get a house like you say even if I had a trillion gil, but I moved to OCE why? Because I knew getting a house in a new server would give me better chances. I transferred with 35 million from NA and grew it to 67 million here in OCE when the lottery started I studied all the plots and didn't put an entry with many I picked one with no entries, a mansion, and waited. The day of the lottery results I lost to a zero. When it is fixed I will decorate a mansion because my chances here on OCE is 100% winner .... Like the guy says it takes planning, observing, and calculating winning situations. I won

Because hundreds of smaller threads, that get pushed so far apart and down the pages, will get ignored rather than one giant thread where they can more easily search for information. But that's just common sense, and evidence of what has happened in the past, talking.

I mean, it's more than just common sense: the moderators have outright said in the past that threads that are one big thread with like 80 pages or whatever tend to get noticed, responded to, and forwarded to the devs. Smaller threads don't get flagged for their attention, and moreover, one big thread that collects all discussion on a topic is easier for them to point the devs to, rather than going "you also need to read these other 9 threads."

If people just post Another New Thread, people start commenting in whichever thread is at the top of the first page, and the others get forgotten and pushed aside. And you get 10 different threads with 6 pages each (thus staying small and unnoticed) instead of 1 thread with 60 pages (which is much more likely to get pushed to the dev team).

And you don't understand statistics. Probably failed gcse maths? I am speaking to someone with no numerical brain cells. Also if you got what you claim you do, please do yourself a favour and stop talking lol you are just here causing drama in an already dramatic post.

provide your mathematical statistics to show everyone why whatever you did won you the house and not "Luck"

prove what you typed. You are claiming you worked hard and cleared ucob that has something to do with you winning the house prove what you just typed.

Hey look at me. With a mansion. Surely my plan worked. More gil = more bids = better odds. Add a bit of research on which plot less bids which ward less bids and you increase odds further. Trust me your problem is you are probably poor. Complaining about house is like Complaining about your irl problem without putting in the effort. Get good. And stop complaining. Housing limitation is there and it's not going anywhere. If u want a mansion go earn gil and u will eventually get one as opposed to sitting on 50mil gil expecting you are the king and u deserve everything. Ur sub fee is for the game access not for every aspect of the game. It's like me saying I pay the sub why is UCOB only locked for 2% player base skill. Just get good, you are just poor.

Here is this guys quote ^ for future reference

^ Prove what you just said "ZerefDragonslayer" according to you "Luck" has nothing to do with winning the plot but gil and skill is. So i have 800 Million Gil + large fc with 400 active members and i cleared all the available raids on patch. Why didnt i win the plot since you are CLAIMING : Luck has nothing to do with winning lottery but skill and gil does. Prove what you just typed with full details and references .

let him prove what he typed. because i checked his profile LMFAO i am waiting for proof of what he typed .

Ignore that person, he's just trolling. Money has nothing to do with being able to get a house now(adays), unless he bought a mansion via RMT.

Actually, money can still have an effect. Real money through use of multiple service accounts to obtain multiple entries. Game currency can have an effect if you have multiple characters and don't care which gets a house, or if you're going for a FC house since FCs can have multiple entries.

Certainly for personal houses, the effect of money (real or gil) is fairly small because demand is so high compared to available supply.

But for FC houses, the impact is quite large. Since his FC has an Empyreum large, I suspect it is the FC house he's referring to. There wasn't much demand for FC housing and larges really weren't getting that many entries due to the higher price tags. I'd generally see larges getting 4-16 entries (most would be less than 10) while some mediums were getting up to 50.

Someone with gil and a lot of alts (or friends in the FC) could load up the placard for their desired large with 10 entries early on. If you later are looking for a large for your FC, would you then bid on that plot when you could find the same large in another ward with only 3 entries? No, you'd probably bid on the one with only 3 entries because your chances would be better. Money definitely had an impact in that situation.

Now if there had only been 1 or 2 large houses available for FCs instead of 108, the money would have had less impact. It would have been 10 entries out of 400 or so instead of 10 out of 10-16.

Money and Fc members are an advantage. My Fc has 6 members 5 of which are mine therefore I was the only bid on a large and I sent 4 of my alts to bid on a small personnel house. There were 8 entries so we have a 50% chance to get it. The large is the priority and I won it but I'm glad I have a shot at the small personnel. I'm so sure ill get both I have already purchased the exteriors for both. Large gets a cafe' style while the small will get a foundry. I'm so excited I can't hold my pee pee.

so in short " if you want a guranteed plot make 50 alts so your odds go up" thats ur solution to housing lottery ?? you realize its still a lottery . its good you won but you also could have NOT won its still luck based . Yes having more bids increases your chance BUT it does not gurantee anything.
