I'm bad at math so I'm not sure I'm doing this right, but I'd like to figure out the numbers behind this one. The way I understand it, 5% is added on any previous time+penalty for every skill beyond the brain capacity. Here is the basic (well, basic if you've previously learned BL5) brain capacity table, together with percentage of time penalty.

And this is where I stopped calculating, because with 85/37 skills learned, I've got 940% time penalty, so I've made a mistake in the formula or in the numbers somewhere. This is why I ask brainy citizens of Ur to come to my aid and show me where I went wrong.
* While there are no decimals here, I assure you I've calculated with 2 decimals, but it would be a pain to write them
*** I double checked nothing
