The player base asked for this instead of pushing harder for real change. This was the result a lot of us tried to warn them about.

Like for real? What is the purpose of the 9 days span then? WHY THE F is Square pissing on us so much?

Believe it or not, people can have obligations IRL that can prevent them from logging on to FF14 for days on end. My friend has a job that continuously sends them out to places where they'd be lucky to get in-game without D/Cing due to unstable internet, or speeds so slow you'd thought it was 1995. Not to mention people can be locked out of power for days on end in the event of major storms, like the huge winter one that passed through the vast majority of Canada & The USA during late December that knocked out power for half my city for 3 days. Not to mention the JP work ethic where there is a cultural pressure to work overtime &/or late hours, go out drinking with workmates/bosses etc.

While you're quite emotional charged, do try to see past your anger and understand the 5 day window to enter is Square being considerate of the fact not everyone lives online 24/7 and that stuff happens. Since that window allows 99% of lottery entry patterns to have at least one day on a weekend where people tend to be much more free.

the housing system in xiv as a whole needs to be completely redone ala how ARR was to 1.0, should have been wards for FC housing then everyone gets an instance where they can upgrade the house over time, i was bidding on a medium with only 3 people and lost, its disheartening and until players start speaking with there wallets by unsubbing i doubt anything major will change, i might be done with this game im not sure, its to the point i only even care about it when there new content or an expac. id even pay irl money for a house at this point i do not care. maybe that could solve it too have 3 wards for mogstation housing something like $15 for small $25 for medium and $35 for large would work as an example

Imagine thinking a lottery system was the way to go.

I just came to vent. I have been looking for a house for 18 months. No luck. I thought this was my chance. Finally got money and tons of plots! I bid on a plot, I was alone yesterday night I went to sleep.
Woke up today to see someone else bid and was the winner. I am just so f***ed up that I cant get a house in this game. But nothing to do about it.

Exact same thing happened to me. Everyone else in my free company got the one they bid on so I hurried home after work to find more disappointment. I was upset enough I just logged out. Horrible feeling to be the only one who bid on a plot and then lose it to someone who bid last minute. I don't know the answer, but this was awful.

A load of houses just got vacated as well, try again in 4 days.

True, but mostly if not only smalls.
