This bit of code throws a System.ArgumentException before the TypeInitializeException. It says: "Default value type does not match type of property Score":

public static readonly DependencyProperty ScoreProperty =
    DependencyProperty.Register("Score", typeof(float), typeof(MainViewModel), new UIPropertyMetadata(0.0));  

Here is the .NET property:

public float Score
{
    get { return (float) GetValue(ScoreProperty); }
    set { SetValue(ScoreProperty, value); }
}
