Castle Story : 9/22 Update - X Marks the Spot
X Marks the Spot!
Timed / Optional Event
Time zone converter: compare where you are with California
I want to especially thank BarfDump, federerGOAT, netwiz3, kattkrazie for recording the information in my absence.
[==Update requires app update to Version 1.5.3 on iOS, Level 15/17+, and will be available to start beginning x/x. Once started, you will have 10 days to complete the event. The event will automatically start on x/x.==]
What happens when an event finishes?? Click here to take you to a post called How Events Work in the thread called How To Use The Hub.
Tips from players (and me!)
1. It's not that you have one day to complete a chapter - it's that another chapter won't UNLOCK until the next day.
2. If you finish the chapter early, you have to wait for the remainder of the time to expire before the next chapter starts. You have to complete a chapter to begin the next chapter.
3. If you take longer than a day to complete a chapter then the next one will start sooner.
4. If you gem skip a chapter, the next one doesn't start sooner (you will wait even longer!).

Sorry I've been fairly inactive recently @__@ Wanted to pop in and let you all know we received your feedback and have investigated the tuning for the final few days of this event.
- We'd thought that a particular setup would bypass the 20 limit on virals, however we've now confirmed that this is not the case. Because of that, we're halving the Deckhands requirements for both level buckets.
- I cross-checked the calculations some of you have posted against the tuning sheet for this event. While I can't post the specific actuals, I can confirm that the average droprate for Crumbs is a bit higher than one per adventure (though it's certainly possible to only ever get one on every adventure), and that the Parrot Feeder drops a minimum of 3 Parrot Food per collect, with a possibility for 4 or 6. (Day 9 and Day 10 are difficult to complete without spending gems to be sure, but once the Deckhands fix goes out it should not be impossible.)
I'll update again when I receive confirmation that the Deckhands tasks have been updated!
Thanks,
sourp4tch
