Well, I posted to the contest on June 11th, and my initial plan involved only using the room from the expiring buildings, which at first was going to be a mix of Marble and WS. I put in 50 Marble at first, then decided not to use WS, and put in 35 more for 85 total, and then Juggernaut Ltd had their brainstorm. So, somewhere around under 18 days, but there were some pauses in the process.
In terms of actual time, Level 5 takes 30s + 3m + 10m + 30m + 35m = 78.5 m, I think, so 300 takes 392.5 hours if done consecutively. I didn't feel the pressure at first, so I didn't upgrade my builder until the expansion from 85 to 300, so while at best builder that's 78 hours, at my rate it was more like 37.07 + 56.25 = 93.33 hours, 3.88 days. Obviously I was not operating at the ideal rate.
300 was a nice round number, but also a very important number for my Fellowship. Our map clearing plans require 147 Statues and 100 Necklaces. With 300 Marbles and pre-building, I can guarantee all the Statues we need right at the start, and all the Necklaces we need 1 day in.
And when picking up those Statues, for me a Level 1 Produces 14 (base) + 98 (Relic) + 11 (MH) + 28 (Aureate) = 151 * 300 = 45,300, while a Level 5 produces 32 (base) + 224 (Relic) + 25 (MH) + 64 (Aureate) = 345 * 300 = 103,500, a 228% increase.
Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
