Total Comparison per week

Total for each sim week

wk 1 - 31 pt (31 sims on 8 playable Lots not counting uni)
Wk 2 - 85 pt (49 sims on 16 playable lots)
Wk 3 - 149 pt (67 sims on 16 playable lots)
Wk 4 - 228 pt (84 sims on 21 playable lots)
Wk 5 - 363 pt (127 sims on 34 playable lots)
wk 6 - 596 pt (157 sims on 36 playable lots)
wk 7 - 1428 pt (228 sims on 33 playable lots)

*Each round = 1 sim week
**Special Note** Open For Business EP was added late in round 4. Official Rules Pending.
***OFB rules released prior to starting wk 7. No meditating on venue lots were played after release of rules. The lots that would have gained networth from that would have been lost in my lock up problem mid way the first time through wk 7.

GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH (GCS) ASPIRATION: I've completed 2 grill cheese sandwich sims in my challenge. I've scored the 3 points for them and would encourage anyone else to score theirs as well. I can't recall what EP added Grilled Cheese. (?NL maybe) The original rule around GCS stated it was possible to play it per a FREE Orb use. Since the orb is the only way to get a GCS. If you change your mind, then you take a -10 deduction (double the normal -5 pt orb use). No mention in the original rules saying there would be no scorable IW for the GCS aspiration. If the creators of the challenged intended there to be no scorable IW, then it should have been stated when the aspiration was added. Changing the rule in this fashion is no different than Pinstars elixir rule change. I, for one, didn't honor pinstars mid-game elixir rule change and will not honor this mid-game rule change. (Feel free to deductd the 6 points I earned from GCS in about week 3 of my challenge.)

Someone came up with a wonderful strategy with GCS. I wish I knew who it was so I could give them proper credit. The strategy was to change a CAS elders to GCS. Then you score their LTW and IW in one BANG. Giving the player, who can pull it off (in such a short time) a 20 pt increase. For anyone who is able to pull this off, then by all means score it. I find GCS to be a challenge and to pull it off with a CAS elder. WOW!!! I never tried this with a CAS elder, that sounds like more of a challenge than what I want. So if you did then... Score it and BRAG about it. You earned it!!!! To the player who came up with this strategy. GREAT WORK!!!

Hear, Hear...WELL SAID on the GCS scoring bit.
Knowledge is FAR easier to get the IW, GCS are by NO means easier to get (eat 200 GCS)!

I still can't believe it! AWESOME!~
