# 💡 Idea

### 15 seconds seems like way too much time to select _The Bridge_’s special item every round, especially considering that it saves which one you chose across different games. This just seems like unnecessary waiting. :rolling_eyes: It should be shortened to something like 5 seconds to make the game fast-paced and not get boring because of an easily-fixable feature. :trophy:

Yes, maybe the item selection should take place in the waiting lobby instead of the actual game.
