Well, I have good news and bad news.

The bad news is that there was a stated 2000 max for ships and bases combined. That the game let you build more was a bug, so either you'd have lost all the extra points from the ships over 2k, or you'd have been disqualified.

The good news is that it doesn't matter, because the contest was cancelled.

Seriously though, with the 2000 base limit, resources were king.

My final stats were:
278.7M points; 228.7M resources; 246 tech levels; 39 systems; 492 planets; 2.7 trillion population; 2000 starbases; zero research, intel, ships, units, etc.

It's really too bad they cancelled. I'm surprised they couldn't just end it on the 7th and verify the scores and be done with it. After all, if they're going to still publish their book, they need to verify the SEIV scores anyway, don't they? Ah well, it just seems so anticlimactic to have it end this way. C'est la vie!
