The Devs are working on a system as they have said for some time now which will dictate to the game world not only the number of available housing lots but also how often lots become available and how players will be able to attain them. If you are just your average player, you will not just be able to rock up to a store with your sack of gold and just buy a lot. Check Update 13 if you aren't aware of this by the way, they keep it very quiet. Not really something they want all perspective backers to know. www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?p=5920So what happens if you don’t get a property deed during the crowd-funding phase? There will still be some property deeds made available after the game goes live. We are currently looking at what the most fair method of distribution will be. The three main options currently being considered are:
Put a deed up per week per area with an opening for a 1 week auction using in game currency. This would obviously be VERY competitive!
Lottery system. Tickets are sold for a week and then we hold a random drawing to give away a few property deeds. This will ensure that more people have a chance and makes it more exciting for the masses but could frustrate some players.
Land Rush! We would set a very high but fixed in game price for deeds and let people race to get them. This could be too rewarding for the earliest adopters and also could result in some negative side effects like organized groups or farmers working together to buy property deeds purely for resale reasons.

IN MANI CORP
So this topic is becoming relevant yet again in the Unlimited POT/House conversations.
The lot allocation system hasn't yet been decided... This will be an interesting topic to clear up before their "final wipe" and "land rush" systems take effect.

No canon when there ain't canon. PS: I can't hear your rebuttal when your head's locked down on my doorstep.

I mean, rather, are people actually still buying that shit? Like flying off the shelves? I can't tell you that. I think the only way to determine that is to get the data on which pledges that include lots have sold over time and then tally it all up. That only gives you data on it based off direct pledge tiers though and totally misses the 10, or 20, or 50 lots or so that the whales have picked up.

"I want, I want, I want..."
That's all I read on page 2.
