Candy Corn Gobbler change bugged? Or unadvertised limit on buff purchases?

I've been talking with some of our designers about this. Any change is unintentional and they are looking into it to see if something is happening that shouldn't be.

Good morning! I've got an update from some of our designers: After extensive checking we identified an issue with the Candy Corn Gobbler - the previous version (before the March 19 update) had a bug causing the Experience Booster effect to occur as an extra double-buff more often than it should have. Additionally, there were a few small probability differences that increased the chance of a non-XP double buff and a typo causing some of the minor buffs to have extended durations in the new version. When all of this was combined it caused total buff durations to appear within standard deviation for large amounts of candy corn used in testing (300+ gobbles) but not for the Experience Booster in short gobbling sessions. We have a fix in the works that will recreate the original results precisely--this time intentionally--while preserving the improved ease of use of the updated item. We're working on getting it to you as soon as possible!

This update is live now: Grab the latest build and it should be resolved!
