    Maybe I'm thinking too much into this, but everyone's losses is against last minute bidders. Isn't that strange? Seems like the systems favors last minute bidders more than 70% of the time. I was number 1 in lottery, yet I lost against number 8, who was a last minute bidder along with 9.

    I am saying this - There is a mod/plugin that certain discord channels/servers use that keep people updated on the states of plots throughout the wards. Though I am not sure if that also mentions the amount of bids the plots have when they are open for the lottery.

    Just food for thought of which lengths people go for this.

    There is at least one website for plot updates, also. However I believe it was having issues this go around, due to the new wards and the person running the site being away for a bit.

    Same. I specifically bid on a plot that had no bidders and of course someone had to go for mine even though there are tons of no bid plots. Lost in a 50/50. Been trying to get a house for YEARS have spent many 24 hour nights awake. Happy I didn’t have to do that this time… but…. I’m sad. I wish they had instanced housing so bad.

    Managed to relocate to my desired plot (small) in Shirogane. That said, my server is not very populated and only the Large/Mediums were snagged up in my new district.

    It's just so funny to me, how people would actually prefer housing savage and placard spaming over the "new and improved" lottery system lmao.
    Like at this point it should REALLY ring a bell, that people HATE the lottery system and maybe instance housing would be a solution. But we can't do that. We can only do Island Sanctuary which is basically a watered down version of instance housing on a bigger scale.
    Or here is a WILD concept: Reduce the housing timer, as someone suggested earlier, and idk make bidding and result periods last 1-2 days instead of almost an entire week, so people don't start growing gray hairs by the time they actually get a plot. IF they get a plot at all. Or just do something about shell FCs and RMT ? But yeah... Such great improvements over macro placard spamers and relocating trolls. Love it

    Lost lottery-
    I play since 8 years and never had a house. Old system literally encouraged botting because if you were a person with a job u needed incredible luck to get one otherwise.
    This system is better but for people like me who had to do 200+ castrum runs to get one field note or needs to run the current normal raid tier 10+ times to get one item, its even more difficult

    Has Sqare even acknowledged how awful the system is? I don't mean just passively adding new wards but actually saying literally anything about the dumpster fire that is player housing and how so many people hate it.
