My maiden voyage of challenges. . .

Steve Scribe read 135 books and earned 665,341 for a score of 1,563,551. Perhaps not too bad for a total rookie, but I had lots of fun regardless.

Good job, lilygirl! Great score

Thanks Veld! It was a 2 day marathon (I have to take advantage of my husband's break from Eve which allows me use of the PC) and now I'm doing my taxes. $:-\$

First challenge is my only excuse. Didn't understand the importance of reading until it was too late. Had too much fun writing:

Books Read: 203 -> 2.03 multiplier
Writing Revenue: $1,013,485
Score 2,057,374

Also got distracted by butler, hehe.

Mind if I add a million points to your score?

Your multiplier is 1.00 + 2.03 = 3.03.

Yes, please. That's a little bitter. I'd never play with the author. I had no idea they could make so much.

Metro, is it just me or the leaderboard looks a bit weird? I can see it divide in the middle and the numbers are in a closer distance than the ones above the divided spot. Maybe a simple edit of the first post could fix this. I don't mean the scores, I mean their placement.

Yeah, lol.

I have no idea what the heck happened, but I'm on it.

@Shenice93 — awesome score!

Seabody · « **Reply #243 on:** April 13, 2011, 01:56:10 AM »

With about 5 weeks to go, my sim has about $35,000 earned. I am going to fail badly.

I hope I haven't made a grave mistake in strategy...

lvrugger · « **Reply #244 on:** April 13, 2011, 06:58:34 AM »

Earned: $2,674,823
Read: 531
Total: $16,878,133

Three practice runs (not all were completed, just to see which strategies would work when) helped on this. No more writers for a long time, I think.

Ok, Week 1 Finished... I Have got just over 1,000 Made so far... Good, Or Bad?

No comment. Just do the best you can and post results at the end. Strategy will be discussed after the event closes.

folcon · « **Reply #248 on:** April 13, 2011, 06:35:44 PM »

I'm not actually taking part in the tournament, but this challenge looked fun and I wanted to try it out.

$512,816 from writing
172 books read.

512816 * 2.72 = 1,394,859.52 final score

Better than some, not as good as many. Once the event closes, I'll mention my thoughts on how I could have done better.

ratchie · « **Reply #249 on:** April 14, 2011, 04:16:06 AM »

You have to knock off the decimal point so your score is 1,394,859
