-68 randomly guessing. It went up in a big fireball. :)

Second try, choosing bottom option for everything: -271. Beat that!

Neat - I wonder how many hundreds of millions of $ the equipment costs :)

Got a 66 unoptimized.

Guess it kinda helps being a chemical engineer.
Edit: didn't see the 78 or 83...but still I'm 3rd place.

First: 51/47/91
Optimized: 50/50/100

It helps that I work in the semiconductor field :)
