Alegarten and Keelhauliday are pretty standard holidays at this point. Its immensely frustrating to try and sift through the massive list of achievements to find the ones specific to their items/shops. Both should have their own tabs under "Seasonal" like the other holidays do.

Yes please! I struggle a lot trying to find specific achievements, but especially holiday-related ones for holidays with no sections

I think how the Seasonal achievements work is they are ones that can only be obtained during that holiday. The miscellaneous plushie/wardrobe/etc achievements are able to be obtained year around since they don't actually "close" or retire at the end of the holiday.

I think they are fine the way they are.

A little note of some kind wouldn't hurt, I think.

I don't think they're going to make new categories for these achievements because they're mostly read to/feed to/have in wardrobe-type achievements.

A note in the achievement's title with the respective holiday name could work, for achievements that are 90-100% filled with items only available during that particular holiday. (TY for this idea, !) Or some kind of other little nod toward the holiday the achievement is technically for, like a little Oatmeal icon for Alegarten, a pirate flag for Keelhauliday or something. idk.

Example: The Wurst (Alegarten) Feed a pet the following wursts!

Knows who they are (Keelhauliday) Have the following stickers in your album.

i was just thinking about this. i get why they're not in those sections but yesterday i was trying to figure out if i needed any more alegarten stuff for achievements, but there's no good way to sort for just those or even tell at a glance.

I understand the frustration, but sometimes items like that are required for other random achievements as well. So should we put something in the Alegarten or Fireside achievement tab if only one or two of the required items for that achievement are related to that event? What if an achievement requires items from multiple events? Where do we draw the line?

I'm fine with having the seasonal achievements be the ones that can only be obtained during that season. I don't know what a good solution is, but maybe some kind of tagging system or a way to list what shop(s) the required items come from would help? You'd still have to go through the achievements you need and look at the items, but it could help you organize your WLs or whatever to know what seasonal items you need to get.

[edit]Especially unsure now that Alegarten is moving to the summer and won't necessarily be set up the same way. Like the items won't be 100% retired of course, but even staff were mentioning the possibility of the shop not coming back in the way it exists now. So an Alegarten achievement section may become unnecessary in the future, or replaced with whatever the new holiday will be.
