Finished LTW on Week 2, Day 2.  Total Household Funds now sits at 154,212.

CM Calculation:

Time penalty — 9 days

9 X .05 = .45
1.00 - .45 = .55

Celebrities Known - 21

21 X .005 = .105

.55 + .105 = .655

Total = 154,212 X .655 = 101,009

I just started university so I've been really busy, but fortunately this one didn't take too long.

LTW completed Week 2, Day 1 - 8 days total.
Celebrities known: 37
Multiplier = 1 - (8 x .05) + (37 x .005)
= 1 - .4 + 0.185
= 0.785

Household Funds: 127,780

Multiplying: 127,780 x 0.785 = 100,307.3
Final score: 100,307

Nice one, Nutella! :D
Thought up a little trick to this, but guess it wasn't enough.

I find that out of all the challenges, this one is the most luck dependant.  I can't wait to hear what your little trick is.

I'd agree... though you can skew the odds a little in your favour. Can't go into too much detail until the challenge ends, of course ;)

Wow... that was glitchy! Finally finshed though:

Finished W5D3 = 31 days, 31 x 0.05 = 1.55;

Celebs known = 33; 33 x .005 = 0.165;

Multiplier = 1 - 1.55 + 0.165= -0.385

Household funds = $108508;  -0.385 x 108508 = -41775 (final score)

Mine got glitchy as well! It was all good up until this newest patch then it froze a lot and crashed like 2 time! But I finished!


Finished Week 5 Day 6 = 34 days
34 x 0.05 = 1.7
1.00 - 1.7 = -0.7

Celebs known: 41
41 x 0.005 = 0.205
-0.7 + 0.205 = -0.495

Household funds: $101,028
-0.495 x 101028 =  -50008

Please double check my math! Not 100% sure I did it right!

I hope everyone has a great weekend -- just a quick reminder that this event closes tomorrow (Sunday) at Midnight (your time). So, good luck to those finishing up. It's definitely encouraging to see better participation in this event compared to some other recent ones. *happy dance* :)

Phooey, I'm not going to make it after all. I started, but then I went on vacation, had some technical difficulties, etc., etc...there's no way I'll finish this today. I goofed a couple of times already so I don't think I would've had a top score anyhow - looking forward to seeing everyone's results!

Now to continue planning for the finale...!

Finished, finally; I'm not sure if the patch caused the glitches or something else, but I could definitely have done without them.

Finished  Week 4 Day 5 with 102,072 household funds and 34 celebrities known.

I make that CM =-0.13
and final total =-13269
