    Housing Lottery Apology Posters

    Please make said posters available for 50m gil each even to players that weren't blessed with good fortune.

    Or maybe more than 50m, maybe 100m. Maybe call it something different like "Authentic" to show it's not the "legit" one.

    Exclusive items annoy me, especially since they're exclusive for no reason. Did they play at a specific time? Did they accomplish anything? No, just total random luck, and now there's an item that I'll never have because I didn't get lucky.

    If I didn't already have a house I'd be even more annoyed. They already win the lottery to get a house, and then they won the lottery to get a free house, and now they win the lottery a 3rd time to get what will be the rarest item in the entire game.

    Making them akin to the gold mounts seems like a fair solution.

    Annoying if they're exclusive. But par for the course in terms of stupid decisions from the devs, especially when it comes to housing related things.

    Instead of jumping the gun about this, why not just wait until Tuesday? The patch notes don't actually specify that the NPC is completely exclusive to players who 1) won a bugged plot, and 2) had already received their lottery refund.

    It sounded pretty much it was for that group of people though. At least to me.

    Still couldn't hurt to wait ~3 days to see if it's actually exclusive, instead of people panicking about possibly missing out on three small wall furnishings.

    Wait a few days is the best suggestion.

    The way the lottery failed, with a ticket number stub not making it to the placard, suggests the data itself is not there and certainly not in an accessible and checked form. So, it's not going to be locked to people who got free homes.

    It's far more logical from a data POV that one (or three) of these are available to anyone who puts in a house sized amount of gil (it's possible they represent a small, medium, and large house or they could just be one set of three).

    So, as far as collecting exclusive items, if you have a spare 50 million and even if you didn't get caught with the zero bug, I'm going to hazard the guess you can get the 50 million gil poster.

    I hope you're right and it is available to everyone but the way it is worded in the patch notes is super vague as it keeps referring to people who were affected by the refund.

    They didnt get their houses for weeks, so they get a little something, is this really that big of an issue that its only available for them ?
