I was thrilled by this news until I saw "July 10th." By the time this change is implemented, shell FCs will have consumed most of those wards. And I'm sure any last-minute legit FCs that were holding out for mediums just saw this news and crapped themselves, so they'll probably (finally) decide it's time to settle on a small as well. Meanwhile, the relatively newer shell FCs made a couple of weeks ago will hit their 1 month date before the 10th. Individuals will once again be stuck fighting thousands of other players for a dozen empyreum plots.

At this point, I'm curious about what goes into adding new wards and why they don't add them more often. I'd love a current year live letter about housing in general, or just a commitment to improving apartments so people stuck with those won't feel like they're missing out on a lot of functions.
