248 Collection Items = 248 points.
9 complete collections = 9 X 10% = 1.00 + .90 = 1.90

Total = 248 X 1.90 = 471

I really enjoyed this one. Lots of fun.

The Wise Sisters have retired now.

222 Collection Items = 222 points.
7 complete collections = 7 X 10% = 1.00 + .70 = 1.70

Total = 222 X 1.70 = 377

I enjoyed this one. I love collecting.  ;D

Finished with 228 unique items collected and 6 collections completed. So close to completing at least one other collection, if only the Swift sisters could have postponed their birthday for a few hours... I like collecting, but it can be really frustrating at times.

My final score is 228 * 1.6 = 364.8 -> 364

It was easier than I thought to disregard Get to Work for this challenge, but now it's time to explore this shiny new expansion pack  ;D.

I am having trouble creating the screen shot with print screen.  I just end up with a blank white image.  If I use my video card's screen capture to record a couple seconds of video of the menu, will that work, or can someone tell me if there is a trick to using print screen to print from Sims 4 on Windows 8.  I have tried alt+ print screen and the windows button and print screen.  The file created by the latter was the same blank white screen I got from pasting.

I have found with Windows 8, when I want to take shots of items like the Sims 3 supermaxed skills, I have to set it to 'Windowed' instead of 'full screen'. When I don't do that, I get a black screen with print screen. I do not believe I have that issue with Windows 7.

I know that this is a sims 4 challenge, and what I've said above is sims 3, but it might be the same with that, perhaps. Some issue between Windows 8 and Sims, perhaps?

As dying in this one doesn't seem to result in a DNF :P, I'll try 'windowed' if/when I eventually do get to the point of completing this one and take the screen shot. (As Sims 4 is on my Windows 8 laptop only).

Cool challenge! I'm new to Sims 4, so it was fun to find the collectibles. :)

216 Collectibles = 216 Points
10 Complete collections = 10 * 0.10 = 1.0
1.0+1.0 = 2.0 multiplier
2.0*216 = 432 Total Score

210 Collection Items = 210 points.
8 complete collections = 8 X 10% = 1.00 + .80 = 1.80

Total = 210 X 1.80 = 378

6 collections completed

233 x 1.6 = 372.

Yeah, I initially really liked playing this challenge, but discovered that I actually could get motion sickness from panning the camera around too often and too fast.  It made finishing this one very tricky.

241 items collected
8 collections completed

241x1.8= 433.8

Special thanks to my celebrity sim couple, who wish to remain nameless for privacy purposes!

Finished 2 collections and collected 200 items. 
200 x 1.2 = 240 points.  :(

But as usual it was a great challenge and I really learned a lot.  Thank you Metro and the team.

That turned out to be a ton of fun. Especially for my first challenge in a very long time.

I had 207 items collected and 7 completed collections (eggs not included).

So,

207 x 1.70 = 351.9 - wasn't sure if I should round up or down.

My sims, Sarah and Helena, collected 242 items and completed 10 collections!

242 x 2.0 = 484

I really enjoyed this challenge, especially getting to explore some aspects of the game that I've never really looked at before!
