Thank you Mom.
 That was my first thought, but clearly I did forgot reading it.
I tried to PM but did not know how, and missed the part where I needed to type in the visual test. After waiting a day for the pm that would not come, I just went on.
That counts me ending at 4 weeks 6 days with

10 skills maxed
21 partial
9 challenges

Or count me a DNF :)

Thanks for the fun.

Ahh yes the 11th hr comments.
I started this challenge with 4 real time days to go.
I am still plugging away here, however at 4 weeks and 6 days one sim died at the workbench, as I was unsure what to do from there I ended up choosing to revert to an earlier save and continue. If I made the wrong choice please simply mark me as DNF or chart me at 10 skills lvl 10, 21 points partial, and 9 challenges.
With another day of real time still with me, I am currently working along with 17 lvl 10 skills, and soon to be 20 challenges. They are fun, and I want to thank you for all your work over the years, as I played many silently.

Yes, you made the wrong choice. If a Sim dies that's just the roll of the dice and you could have continued with one Sim. Oh well. :) Thank you for participating.

Game is still as buggy as ever but I'm glad I finished this one for the finale...

22 maxed skills = 22000
5 skill points in non-maxed skills = 250
67 skill challenges X .05 = 3.35. Final multiplier = 1.00 + 3.35 = 4.35.

Total = (22000+ 250) X 4.35 = 96787

*double checks date & makes calculations* Yes, I have more time! Whee!!!

I thought this was due in roughly 10min from now in my time zone, so I wrote down everything just in case - I'm not going to be close to the top as mistakes were made, but I think I may make it to week 12, day 7, 11:59pm after all. :D

Ok, finishing end of week 3 with 10 skills maxed and 26 challenges, and 3 skill points.

10,150 x 2.3 = 23345

Finally finished! I think my sims deserve a good lie down and a long break from all the supermaxing.

22 skills maxed
0 skill points
61 skill challenges completed

61 x 0.05 = 3.05
3.05 + 1  = 4.05

22000 x 4.05 = 89100

Fantastic challenge, quite proud of myself for this one and glad to be on the world ranking list. :)

Metro or Rica help I pressed the wrong button while editing the score board. So I am going to leave well alone before I mess it up all together.

Right, I'm officially giving up now with a few hours of time left! Didn't get very far through, but my score to date is:
8 skills maxed
79 skill points
14 skill challenges completed.

Total score = (8000+3950) x 1.7
                  = 20315

Thanks for a really fun year Metro! I've always done absolutely rubbish, but have enjoyed playing anyway and bolstering up the leader board from the bottom!

20 skills maxed = 20,000
Partial skills = 8 x 50 = 400
47 skills challenges = 2.35 +1.00 = 3.35

Total Score = 68,340

That was hard, but fun!

I really learned a lot from this challenge and played in ways I had never tried before.  Thank you Metro.

Maxed skills 23.
Skill challenges completed 61.
1+(.05*61)= 4.05.
(23*1000)*(1+(.05*61)) = 93150.

Well, I made it - I can't say the same for all of my sims, but I'll reward the ones who could be counted in the end. :P

20 maxed skills x 1000 = 20000
6 skill points x 50 = 300
34 skill challenges x 0.05 = 1.70 + 1.00 = 2.70

20000 + 300 = 20300
20300 x 2.70 = 54,810 points total

I learned a lot from this challenge, that's all I can say at the moment.

I couldn't finish because this file is so buggy - don't know why, but noticed it after installing Seasons.  Tried to play this evening, and it took over an hour to get through a single Sim-day!  So, stopping at 5 weeks, 3 days with:
     7 maxed skills (7000) plus 13 skill points (650) = 7650
     Multiplied by 8 challenges (8 x .05 = 0.4) plus 1 = 1.4 x 7650 = 10,710 Total points.

Yippee - last place for me!  Oh well.  It was fun. ;D
