I love a good challenge and thanks AEGram for listing them.

My worst one is getting enough airship items to send those little flying buggers out three times etc. 

Am I wrong or are not the Castle Challenges during events rather than updates? I say this as it makes it more difficult to acquire some of these things without the added bonus of being able to get items from Friends' rooms.

1. The credit for posting of the Castle Challenges should be given to LadyAstra.............it is she who posts them, not I.

2. Castle Challenges come at two different times.....outside and inside of Events. There have been many content updates released that soon follow with a CC. There has been one occasion when a CC was introduced and the Event started when there were still a few days remaining in that CC. About a day or two after that CC was concluded, the CC associated with the Event was released.

3. I agree that the Castle Challenges outside of the Events are generally harder. There are fewer things to be listed in the 30 tasks and many get repeated, which adds an additional burden to those who are trying to play all 30 days. The amount of airships that must be sent in this particular CC is far more extreme than I'd like to see. Plus, having one on the very last day of the CC will cause more problems for those of us who like to couple the airship sending with Trina's quests.
