This is asinine, has there EVER been an instance where no one bids on anything during that period? So just make the end time the end time, then let each lot extend as needed.
There are auctions that do extended bidding on a live clock that moves things along quickly. If no one bids, it's over in 30 seconds. This is also successfully executed in the middle of the day.
