Just merge the old system with the new, they obviously can't solve the limited housing issue so why are they making it so EVERYONE is equal. Great, the entry time is 5 days, now people who are actively hunting houses are on the same level as the people who play once a week and decided to bid on a house. There should be priority in mind when designing something like this. Remove the cycles, one guaranteed 24 hour period where everyone enters the lottery and that is it. People hunting houses are rewarded for keeping at it, getting multiple tries. The number of bids are decreased, and the people who play once a week can still have a shot.
