As this is the last year we'll have Alegarten in its current format, I am trying to buy everything that I need from Gunter's shop before it closes up on 6 Oct. I read on the news announcement (LINK) that it's going to be run differently next year.

I am wondering if it's possible to have the timer removed for the remaining time we have. I am trying my best but it's taking so long to go through everything one by one (just for my achievements at the moment as the bare minimum. I would buy something, go do something else around the site, then I have to come back and check if enough time has passed... I don't even know if I'd have time to buy stuff to save for later, since Alegarten is such a short holiday and I can't be online 24/7 because I have a really busy schedule in real life).

There's no knowing if and when the items will be back and no idea how easy it will be to obtain them in the future, so I think it would also help us add them into circulation. (And perhaps, we can also bring back some of the other older retired items from past Alegarten that's currently not in the shop, I'm aware of a few items not in there right now).

I'm sure it's something a lot of us would appreciate as the last hurrah for Alegarten in October before the format change :)

Alegarten is seriously my favourite mini-holiday because it's so relaxing and chill after a frantic September, and a really nice way to wind down, so I definitely will miss it a lot (and the Oktoberfest feel of it) when it's changed. As I did say in my news comment, I totally understand why the change is being made. I am very grateful for all the wonderful work the artists are doing and they do deserve a break.

Thanks for your consideration! ❤️

[edit] As mentioned, the timer is actually only 10 seconds, however, the error message that follows when you buy too quickly is showing 30 seconds: (Link to screenshot since it got shrunk by sCode: https://i.imgur.com/zBiOma9.png) Which is actually pretty misleading. I think this could be changed to indicate the right cooldown period between buys. I think 10 seconds could also be further reduced down to 5 seconds, like with normal shops, perhaps?

it's actually not 30 seconds, it's more like 5 or 10 seconds and it mainly exists to prevent accidental double purchases.

Thanks! That's good to know! I'm relieved. I've always had the impression that it's 30 seconds because of the error message that shows up when I'm buying something: (Link to screenshot since it got shrunk by sCode: https://i.imgur.com/zBiOma9.png) I think this should be changed as it's quite misleading, in that case! :P

Thank you so much! :) that would be very much appreciated! :D I have always thought that it was 30 seconds because of the message :P wow...

Could you look into the one for the Millionaire Center as well? I think that one says it's also 30 seconds, but it feels like it's shorter whenever I buy stuff from there.
