Besides which, it really screws up the lair auction. Probably too late to correct that although maybe it'll catch the farmers who were waiting until the last minute. Anyway, better late then never.
If you don't farm crap for cash and instead you've been making money as intended and scrimping and saving for a year; and if you plan to putall your savings from the last year on that nice waterfall lair plot, don't bother. Some farmer made enough last week to trump any bid you could make.
