Castle Story: 10/22/15 Update - Trick-or-Treat! Part 2

[mreames]

I don't think it's undo-able at this point but I do hope there's more coming. Figure 5 collections if you can collect as soon as you wake up. Then 4 more over 16 hours, the last before going to bed. Still leaves 8 hours to sleep. That's cutting it awful close but doable.

I agree with you. The math still isn't working on this one.

I think we would need almost 25 cottages, collecting 4 times a day. That would give 4 dp's a day times 8 days ( my goal clock just changed to 8 days). That's 32 plus the 10 I already have. I need 13 more. In 3 days, I was able to make 5, so in 8 days at the same pace I should get the additional 13.

Problem is I really don't think I want to turn my whole kingdom over to cottages! How boring! I've got 15 already. That should be more than enough. Of course, we don't even know whether the reward is even worthwhile - S8 has been very inconsistent on that point. Some rewards have been awesome but others are duds. And we also don't know if other quests or buildings will be added. This is very annoying.

Edit: looks like it's a moot point because some have discovered a limit of 20 cottages. So this is not do-able in the time frame

I see what you're saying but in real life, this would rarely fall into place. I usually have the flexibility to check in many times throughout the day, but I'm not always able to do so exactly every 4 hours. the 4 hours can easily become 4 1/2 hours, and next thing you know it becomes really hard to get that 5 th collection in.

I think I need to decide whether to bow out now, or keep going with my apparently skimpy supply of 15 cottages and hope that additional sources are provided soon. And as usual, we don't know what S8 is planning so we could make a well- thought decision.

It's totally up to you and like I said I hope they add even more but it at least has gone from totally impossible to slightly possible. it's in the realm of doable even though it would take impeccable timing. I'd keep going and hope they add more.

Do we know we going to get more goodie from our cottages and not a one time deal

[midgetsocks]

No..it won't let me build anymore I have 11 ugh....

[Rockylandia]

[vednir]

Total limit of 40 town buildings. Refer to the building guide in The Hub subforum to see which building types this covers, but briefly: cottage, farmhouse, market place, tavern, windmill.

^ ok thank you!

I increased from 10 to 20 and haven't got to the cap yet but think that's enough.

If I can get to 25, that would be perfect to me. Lol
