Thanks Shrimp, I didn't know it was possible either! lol
I saw you had bested my old time and so I ran it again. After a flub selling off one of my buildings instead of turning it off (doh!) I smashed it out of the park, somehow, on the next try.
I'm out of comission for at least the next two weeks, though. I finally had to send mine in for free fixing for the freezing issue before my warranty ran out lol. Maybe I'll actually get some work done around here now that I have one less distraction =).

I did 3-4 tries on lvl 11 again and added one more chem lab and an SW but my time just got worse, ever though I had like $900 left after lending $600 to the fish
usually I have between -$100 to +$100 after that....

I understand wanting to add that second Chem Lab since there was a healthy amount of pink most of the level.
I only had one Chem Lab when I posted my best time. The second Chem Lab would definitely help make more money, but I thought the time investment would be too much to overcome. Those last few buildings build sooo slowly!
That's good about having a lot more money when the fish needs a loan, though. I remember having quite a bit of money at that point too.
Did you choose to invest in any repair buildings? My Chem Lab was definitely deteriorated by the end, but I didn't dare stop building up the Info line.

Yeah, as you know, the thing about the glitch is that you're committing yourself to a Garage because it doesn't make any sense to leave the Janitor's closet there taking up power and a periodic cost.
But it's just extra time and money that you don't have.
I always keep my main focus on building up the info line. That's all that matters.
hah Do you ever sell some of your buildings before you give it power, so that it doesn't register on your checklist? I hate that =(. And I never realize it until I'm almost done with the level lol

Congrats on your Challenge of the Gods score, DanielShawn.
you dirty, dirty man (or woman).
Now I'm torn -- I want to get back with OKX, but the damn Viva Pinata is taking care of my OCD gaming jones. We need longer days -- lets move to Jupiter.

Thanks, busboy.
I understand what you mean about Viva Pinata, it's been keeping me quite busy as of late too! lol My garden is a disaster; I never had much of a green thumb =).
Is it weird that I would want to hire someone to come design a pretty garden for me? I enjoyed unlocking all the items, but now that I have them, I'm at an artistic meltdown to put it all together. Then, I can enjoy the splendor of it all =).

Challenge of the Gods is a fun little scenario.
Each of the five different types of buildings have a different god associated with it and a different reward for successfully fulfilling a god's request.
The Trade line gives 7500 and the Nature line gives extra power. The other lines give less money.
hah I'm gonna' try and get a better time. Good luck! =)
