I'm finished with this challenge and ready to move on to something, anything else.

31 Maxed Skills = 31,000
5 Skill Points = 250
49 Skill Challenges x .05 = 3.45

Total (31,000 +250) x 3.45 = 107812.5

That's assuming I didn't fail because I was gifted a Group Science Project in my inventory when I maxed the Science.  I thought that just using it was offlimits, but I was reading the general rules and noticed this about the Group Science Project

Then there were some responses, but no final ruling.  Just to be clear I never used the Group Science project.  I just received it when I maxed science.

No you're fine as long as you did not use it. You had no choice in getting it. Nice score, Jack. :)

@Jack Alltrades

Agree with Metro.  You are fine as long as you did not use it.

Whew, that's good to know that I'm not disqualified.  Thanks for the kudos on the score.  I see that I'm leading, but there is still a week to go.  So plenty of time for others to pass me.

Abyshep PM'd the team with this question:

Hi All,

In metros haven, can we create a simbot to fulfil the 'ultimate invention' challenge or is it off limits as that would add to the household?

Many thanks

Aby

The answer is no you cannot complete that challenge. You are adding to the household even though it would be brief if you kicked out the Simbot right away. So, if anyone completed that challenge and scored it, then please tell us and we'll adjust your score accordingly.

Okay, my bad. Simbots are fine to build because you get the option to make them part of the household or release them, so that Invention challenge gets the thumbs up, it's the Plumbots that are a no go. Sorry for the confusion.

Wow. This was... complicated. And very difficult. I just barely finished that last skill!

24 Maxed Skills = 24,000
0 Skill Points = 0
40 Skill Challenges x 0.5 + 1 = 20? (Is that how the skill challenges are supposed to be scored? Seems too large...)

Total:
24,000 x 20 = 480,000

I'm a little confused about the scoring. Could someone help me please?

Lisa your multiplier I believe should be 3.00 — 2.00 + 1.00. I will get your score entered.

Oh, thank you. I guess I had the multiplier wrong.  :)

Phew!

That went much better than I thought I was going to do it, but worse than I should have done because I really mucked up some strategy points.

Scores on the door are:

16 Maxed Skills = 16,000
58 Skill points = 2900
30 Challenges = 2.5 (1.5 + 1)

Grand Total (16,000 + 2900) * 2.5 = 47,250

Thanks for a great challenge

Maxed Skills: 31 (31,000)
Skill Points: 8 (400)
Skill Challenges: 61 (4.05)

Total: (31,000 + 400) * 4.05 = 127,170

Maxed skills 12 = 12,000
19 skill points = 950
8 Challenges complete = 1.4 multiplier

Total score (12,000 + 950) x 1.4 = 18,130

I don't have pets so I feel pretty good about it.  I felt like I got a lot of skills done in that time :)

Had a mistake on my post. Forgot the hunting challenges for pet #2. One more maxed skill and two more skill challenges.

@Myzteree — how many skill challenges were completed by your household?

I finished this up. Max and Maxine Skillz did fairly respectable:

29 skills maxed = 29,000
10 other skill points - 500
48 skill challenges completed = 2.40

Total = (29,000 + 500) X 3.40 = 100,300
