Round Seven

Round Seven – (Aug 7th-14th)

-You MUST timestamp your entry photo. No timestamp, no vote. You only have to timestamp your completed dish photo, not multiple photos if you’re posting a set.
-The more photos you post, the better! We want to see your cooking. Detailing the cooking process/posting a recipe is encouraged (but not mandatory).
-Please use a tripname or some other way to distinguish you from the other contestants, like a gun or a jar of milk. Use the same name/signifier throughout the remainder of the competition.
***If you are not one of the 14 contestants remaining, or have been eliminated already, don’t look at that as a reason to stop posting. You can still do challenges and post your meals, just be sure to remember to say that your submission is “Not for vote” or “For consideration only.”

Voting will be carried out in this thread. Please read the voting guidelines below.

VOTING GUIDELINES

Voting follows an 'Iron Chef' scoring system. This means you, the people of /ck/, will judge each entry individually instead of deciding on what you feel is the "best" dish.

Dishes are scored out of a total 20 points, based on 4 categories (worth a maximum of 5 points each); Presentation, Originality, Appeal and Challenge Goals. You may award 0's if you feel the contestant did not meet any expectations for a category.

-Presentation: The appearance of items on the plate; plating skills
-Originality: Creativity in composing the dish
-Appeal: How appetizing the food looks/whether or not the dish appeals to your personal taste as a voter
-Challenge Goals: How closely the entry followed the challenge goal(s)

Copypasta Scoring Format for Lazymodo

Presentation: /5
Originality: /5
Appeal: /5
Challenge Goals: /5
Total: /20

The Round Seven Challenge Theme is:

Baking! Please prepare an exquisite baked dish; it can be entree or dessert.

*** Some new rules regarding Elimination Rounds: E-Rounds carry penalties and/or bonuses. Bonuses will apply to the top contestant or contestants for that round, and will usually involve some kind of perk or benefit for the next challenge. Penalties are for the bottom five contestants of any E-Round, and are meant to make the following challenge more difficult; you messed up somehow, so you’ll have to work extra hard to pull yourself out of that point hole!

If for some reason you are unable to participate in a Round, you are not automatically eliminated, but you are put at the very bottom of the penalty group, and you don’t get points of course. Failing to submit an entry two Rounds in a row will result in automatic elimination.

And once again, if you’re eliminated, please don’t take that to mean you shouldn’t post your food anymore. Just be sure to mention that your picture isn’t for voting on.

Congratulations to stfuboosie !!/MEZC9Vdvfg, winner of Round Six!
