3. If you forced players to relinquish their old house first, before gambling on a new one, then people simply wouldn't do it. This would mean you're permanently locked into the first plot you win. This is just going to make people even more picky about the plots they bid on, so you'll get hundreds of bids on the popular plots, and 0 bids on the unpopular plots, and people will still be complaining about a lack of plots despite half the plots sitting empty because no one wants to commit to an ugly plot forever. People wouldn't be able to upsize from a Small to a Medium to a Large. Nobody would like this system.
1. yes people will bid on small plots as a prank with no intention of buying it.
2. opening the old plot to have to go with a lottery yet again, is not a selling point.
3. your wrong, many people who want a house will buy ugly slots, that's literally what i tried to get a house. this system has been so unfair for so long that i don't care if you want a upgrade. you say people wont like it, well people don't like the current system now.
