Done with $2,925,578.

I hope that my strategy wasn't breaking the rules - it will be saddening to get DNF instead of that when I reveal it... I should have asked beforehand, but I had no time.

This challenge seemed a lot of fun.
I planned for it and even asked the team some questions.
However, I have some other things going on, and I realised I did not have enough time for it.
I'll still make sure to read this thread and find out all of your strategies.
And I hope to be able to play the next one.

Did you even start your file and accumulate at least some household funds?

Thanks! I can't wait to find out how everyone got those huge scores though!

Thanks guys. :) I'm a Capricorn, which should be pretty obvious by my competitive and perfectionist attitude towards Tournament Challenges, it's why I ask the Team so many questions, I want to know ALL the little details and double check everything, lol. ;) My birthday is on  the 3rd of January, too close to both Christmas and New Years for my liking but at least I get to share my birthday with the great man himself, J R R Tolkien! :D

Happy birthday to you too @GlazeyLady :)

Mine is 31st December, and while I'm not competitive, I'm definitely perfectionist. I share mine with Bebe Neuirth (Lillith, Frasier Crane's wife in Cheers and Frasier and musical theatre star), Ben Kingsley, Val Kilmer, Anthony Hopkins and John Denvor. Pleased to be born on the 31st, all the fireworks are for me that day (according to my parents).

Having only discovered these challenges a couple of days ago, my attempt at this one can only really be described as "rushed" - I even had to concede that I couldn't play the last day properly and just got some quick cash first thing instead. Still, despite a comedy of errors courtesy my outdated mechanical knowledge, some rather dodgy research and the death of two children in the middle of his store one afternoon, Adam Akinsola did manage to make 472,572 simoleons overall. I might run through the last day properly tomorrow evening for my own curiosity, but otherwise I'm pretty happy with that achievement - it would have been better if I hadn't had to hurry so much, obviously, but hopefully I shouldn't have to for any subsequent challenges, and having had quite some fun with this one I do intend to squeeze some more in around my ongoing legacy! Anyways, I'm definitely interested in hearing about how folks made it into the millions; I reckon I could have pushed 800k if I hadn't botched certain things so dreadfully, but seven figures is astounding!

By the end of this challenge, my sim had earned only $18,202.  Wish I had more time to spend on this one, but it was still a nice break from adulting.  Congrats to the top scorers!  Thanks to the moderators for starting off another year of fun challenges!

This event is now closed.

Nikitachi had an amazing score in this one...not just a little more money to secure the win, but leaps and bounds in front of everyone else. Well done.

Everyone is now free to discuss strategy.
