I've been managing to get mid 4000s by the end of the 100 turns, but my most impressive was probably as the Huns, where I ended up with 5502 Fame at the end.

Edit: Last night managed to get up to the mid 6000s.

At 1st playthrough just 1700 Fame BUT I finished at TURN 41.

I am still confused how fast I generated stars withot even trying to do :)

EDIT

2nd playthrought:

Again I could end game at Turn 41 but this time with 3696 Fame,

I played 10 more turns, connquered AI, build some wonders, collected 21/7 stars in this era,

 and decided to END at Turn 51 with 6726 Fame!

 ...and a few IP cities, a few deeds, and few wonders left to do in the next 49 turns - but there was no motivation for doing so.

Great experience ... hope all the best for HUMANKIND :)

I got 3500 ending on turn 52. Not sure how fast you're supposed to transition, but 100 turns seems very very long.

I stated before I had a 8,050 Huns game... So I had to top it.

What better culture than Romans to make it happen!

The Romans: 8,760 Fame

The Expansionist ability is really good to sneak territories away without warring. If your ever facing such a culture, shut those boarders if your not looking closely at the map. 

I know I missed out on 50 fame by not vassaling an AI, so a higher score is more than possible.

7226 at turn 99, didn't complete the territory category. The extra fame for holding not transiting to next era is humongous.

Wow! those are some insanely large cities!, Impresive!

Si vis pacem... Para bellum! Ave Roma!

I saw a stream yesterday day and I tought the guy was running away with the game pretty easily, but you all seem to be overwhealming the AI pretty easily in that scenario, the final scenario from the first open-dev felt more challenging in that reggard.

As my Roman game was a blast, I took a second swing at it but with the Greeks.

Greeks: 8,992 Fame

I went a little too far and accidentally put the entire contient in one city.

so on my second play through i took the greeks and had 7800ish points at turn 75. im bot sure how i could have gotten more points though. i had acheived all 21 stars in both eras, and even though I hadn't conquered the whole continent I'm not sure there was that much more fame that i could have generated. the games alot of fun, but the poor balance was a little more obvious but on the second play through

The AIs are nailed to the lowest setting, so steamrolling is quite understandable considering the scenario is not meant to test warfare (much). 

Other sources of fame include:

1. Wonder construction (100 ea.)
2. Mapping the entire continent
3. Vassal-state one AI
4. Owning the entire continent (after eliminating your vassal) 
5. Settle Islands not on continent 
6. Some Natural wonders on islands (50 ea.)
