2015 - Post Mortem

Thanks to all who participated in this year's /ck/ challenge! I will be posting the winner in my next post, as well as the final scores, metrics and such :-)

I will begin uploading verticals unto the booru hsortly. Should anyone want to make amendments to theirs (or make new ones!) either send them to me by email or post them here.

This thread will also be the feedback/post-mortem session thread, so please, comment away! Things to change? Praises? Bitching? It all goes here.

As the general vote was to make the final round a sudden death round, congratulations to Spork !gVOKCoJgwg for the victory!

VOTING GUIDELINES

Voting follows an 'Iron Chef' style 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 your 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)

The distinction between Presentation and Appeal: If someone submits an artfully arranged but burnt steak as an entry, it may score high in Presentation but low in appeal.

Copypasta Scoring Format for Lazymodo

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

****

The theme of the final round is...
"Signature"
make us your one signature dish, the one dish to blow all of your competitors out of the water.

While you're perfectly welcome to make a large spread of food, please make sure there is clearly a "main dish" because that is what people will be voting on.

Only one will prevail! I will need a show of hands to know if this will be a cummulative score victory or a sudden death round.
