Contest of Mayors - Number of Plumbob Points
For most of my assignments I get between 870 and 1080 point. I had 2 assignments worth 2000 points and the initial one was 1500. I am now on my last possible assignment and will end up with around 12...

There is definitely something fishy going on I totaled ALL the points I had available if I had been able to complete EVERY assignment and still fell short of what my groups winner supposedly generated in only 20 assignments and he finished at least 24hrs earlier than anyone else. In fact my group had 4 players who exceeded by best possible score in 20 assignments and 2 of my highest point tasks appeared as my last 2 tasks when there was no chance for me to have enough time to complete them, so I had to concede about 1200 pts and complete the lower value tasks which had been the highest value available at the time I had prepared for them.
check the screenshots attached of the standings and remaining uncompleted tasks with only hours remaining. The lowest value task I remember completing was worth 900pts. So it is abundantly clear I never had a chance to win! These contest require a tremendous commitment and totally change the play of this game, but if they are not fair and equitable they may end up driving me from the game entirely.
Fair? Hardly... In a real contest, I should be able to compete on a level playing field.
In this weeks contest, in the Suburban league, I completed all 20 assignments. I only chose the high reward assignments. Most were in the 1000 - 1440 point range, with one 2000 pointer. I finished 9th at 25890 points. The winner in our round finished with 33670 points. That's a 7780 point spread between 2 users, one of which (and most likely both) chose ALL high reward assignments.
Contest? Hardly! This is a gamble at best.
