I also took forever in receiving Freebies.
My score:

Finished Week 5 Day 5 = 33 days
33 x 0.05 = 1.65
1.00 - 1.65 = -0.65

Celebs known: 36
36 x 0.005 = 0.18
-0.65 + 0.18 = -0.47

Household funds: $103567
-0.47 x 103567 =  -48676

Got lucky with the Bwan Speedster in the middle of my second week.

Finished week 2 day 4 = 11 days
11 *0.05 = .55
1-0.55 = .45

Celebrities known = 28
28 * 0.005 = 0.14

0.14 + 0.45 = 0.59

Household funds 125,668
125,668 * 0.59 = 74144
(I think I did the math correctly.)

Finished!

Week 4 Day 6

27 days x .05 = 1.35
1- 1.35 = -.35

32 celebrities known x .005= .16

-.35+.16 = -.19

107055 (cash) x -.19= -20,340

Good challenge, thanks!!

What's this? I am actually posting my results for a challenge?  :P I know, I know...it's been too long. Well, a good friend of mine that I play Rift a lot with is in the hospital and so I have not been "Rifting" quite as much lately.

Sal Ebrity finished up on Week 2, Day 7 (14 days total)

Household funds = 113,313

Celebrities Known = 33

CM = 1.00 - (14 X .05) + (33 X .005) = 1.00 - .7 + .165 = .465

113,313 X .465 = 52,690

I got two freebies the entire time! TWO!. lol. Don't Sims realize how wonderful I am? Thankfully #2 was a big ticket item that allowed me to cash it in and finish the LTW.

The game is just miffed you're ignoring it.   Good job everyone so far.  Maybe I should try this.

A couple of glitched challenges that wouldn't register as complete really annoyed me in this one, they slowed me down by at least 3 days so I should have been able to post a positive score. Oh well, it happens sometimes I suppose.

Finished on: Week 4, day 4 (25 days)
Household funds: 106078
Celebrities known: 29

CM = 1 - (25*0.05) + (29*0.005) = -0.105

106078 * -0.105 = -11138

.. and I thought I was doing ok... until the math, which I think I did right!

Finished Week 7 Day 6 - 48 Days

48 x .05 = 2.4
1.00 - 2.4 + -1.4 (CM)

31 Celebs Known x .005 = .155

-1.4 = .155 = -1.245

109,955 (Household Funds) x -1.245 = -136893   


Household Funds  $109,955 
CM  -1.4
Total  -136,893   Good Grief!!  LOL

Oof. Well, at least I finished this one.  :D

Finished on week 4, day 5 = 33 days
32 celebrities known and 132429 as final funds.
33*.05=1.65
1-1.65 = -.65
32*.005=.16
-.65 + .16 = -.49
132429 * -.49 = -64890
I think I did the math right. :)

This was fun, but glad to move on!  Here are my stats:


Finished W4D4 = 25 days, 25 x 0.05 = 1.25;  1 - 1.25 = -.25

Celebs known = 25; 25 x .005 = 0.125; -.25 + 0.125 = -0.125.

Household funds = $101004.00;  -0.125 x 101004 = -12625 (final score).

Metro,  one of those scores cannot be right (kearn76 or meova1) as if  W4D4 = 25 days then W4D5 cannot = 33 days!

She's right -- meova1 finished in 26 days, not 33. Her CM is -.3 + .16 for -.14.  Total score is 132,429 x -.14 = -18,540.

Oops. Thanks for the correction. Math is not my strong suit apparently.  :-[

Rich Wannabe finished at week 4 day 5

26 days, 100,311 simoleans, 34 celebrities

26 x .05 = 1.3
1.00 - 1.3 = -0.3
34 x .005 = 0.17
-0.3 + 0.17 = -0.13
100,311 x -0.13 = -13,040.43

I'm obviously missing something strategy-wise as well as being unlucky with gifts

Finished week 3 day 7. 
21 days x .05 = 1.05     1-1.05 = -.05
32 celebrities x .005 = .160
-.05 + .160 = .11
177927 funds x .11 = 19572
