/ck/ Challenge Round 2 Thread 3+Voting Thread

[Chairman Gaijin !!rjar7pwAL8C No.12189503]

SUBMISSIONS END IN 3 HOURS
VOTING BEGINS ONCE SUBMISSIONS END AND WILL GO UNTIL FRIDAY, APRIL 19TH AT MIDNIGHT CEST

Welcome to the 2019 /ck/ Challenge!

The theme for each round is announced on the 1st Monday after the previous round's end with 2 weeks for submissions. After that the voting/rating thread goes up for 3 days and everyone is welcome to vote on the submitted dishes.

Submit your dish with a timestamped picture of your creation (ideally with an available step-by-step process via an imgur gallery post or a photoshopped/GIMPed picture) with a unique totem visible in the picture (any type of object be it a dice, glassware, cloth that you'll show with your submissions for the rounds). If you would not like to submit scores then you are free to give feedback/criticism on the challengers dishes as you see fit (just don't fucking clog up the thread with autism please).

The voting will follow modified Iron Chef rules, a 20 point scale where 5 points each will go towards Presentation (how the dish looks on the plate, i.e. the plating), Originality, Appeal (how appetizing the dish looks to you) and fulfilling the Challenge Goals.

You may use this template in order to score the competitors submissions:

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

[Chairman Gaijin !!rjar7pwAL8C No.12189522]

So far the following anons have made me a sandwich:

Tiki Doomer
Moose
Sakeanon
FPM
Quaff
Nikon

If I have missed anyone who submitted a dish in the past threads with a proper timestamp please let me know. Otherwise, any new submissions have 3 more hours to submit and I will take late submissions if given notice before the midnight deadline. Other then that, to all the submitters best of luck when voting comes around.

ALLEZ CUISINE!

What's the theme, Chairman?

One second. Let me go whip something up.

[ion !jxaL03vL/Q No.12189554]

Second time ever baking bread, first time was a few days before this in attempt #1. Be gentle with me.

Do I need a timestamp? My kitchen is pretty recognizable (and smol), but if I need a timestamp I'll gladly take one.

Even if I was able to roast turkey breast for the first time without fucking up, I wouldn't have been able to slice it deli style so cooking it myself was not really worth it, since thinly sliced meat is part of the appeal because you can layer it nicely.

[Anonymous No.12189915]

No, I ate the sandwich already, but I did photoshop it twice.

Bad camera and bread crumbs. Here's the best I could do.

[Swordanon !!0RFSKDt8xgx No.12190012]

>>12189976
Plus, I had mixed the mash potatoes with the meatloaf when reheating this.

[Anonymous No.12190013]

>>12190011
I’ve had meatloaf countless times with breadcrumbs. It was never white....

[Anonymous No.12190018]

>>12190012
So you posted reheated leftovers in a cooking challenge? Fuck me I thought this submission couldn’t get any worse but you went ahead and did it.

[Swordanon !!0RFSKDt8xgx No.12190023]

>>12190018
Well, I had three hours anon. I wasn't going to finish making a brand new meatloaf with mash potatoes and corn in time. What's bad with it so far?

[Swordanon !!0RFSKDt8xgx No.12190028]

You had 336 hours to enter. You chose to enter at hour 333. I would have kept my dignity and waited for the next challenge.

[Swordanon !!0RFSKDt8xgx No.12190106]

>>12190063
I just saw the thread today. You act as though I committed some great crime. Would you have known that was reheated had I not said anything? No, so why pretend I somehow sullied myself by wanting to participate in a cooking challenge with other people? Where's your entry? And you still have yet to explain what is so unappealing with my food, besides the potatoes mixing with the meat. What, do you have a problem with soup as well because it's all together?

[Anonymous No.12190131]

>>12190106
You should probably check out what the other entries look like in the archived threads.

[Anonymous No.12190184]

OP here just had to run out quickly. I’ll be back to do voting in a second.

Also should I start a new thread or still do it here?

[Swordanon !!0RFSKDt8xgx No.12190195]

I can definitely beat the meatball guy and the salmon one, though, that beef tallow toast guy, kung fu chicken, and bell au jus look really tough to follow up on.

Ok got it!

Alright and with that ROUND 2 IS CONCLUDED!

Thanks to everyone who submitted a dish this round, regardless of quality. Sandwich may seem like an easy theme but to master a sandwich it takes only the finest of chefs to show how the bread melds together with the ingredients to make a truly signature idea. However, that is not for me to judge only for you!

So let's get on with the voting! Let's present this round's dishes! (I won't be doing Iron Chef descriptions this round but will do them once the elimination rounds begin and the lower entries are weeded out.)

So without further ado, LET THE VOTING BEGIN!

I'm not trying to give low scores to be a dick, it's just how I score.
Constructive criticism: the vericals are nice but you may want to consider adding a picture of the completed entry on it's own. And try to make it look nice. Let me pick on The Frigid Bitch (no offence, just using it as an example). A little lower angle on the camera, with natural lighting, a toothpick with a pimento stuffed olive (or something more original) stuck into the top of the sandwich, pushing the sandwich forward on the plate and adding chips/crisps or potato salad or some other side on the back of the plate. Any 2 of those suggestions would have pushed the “Presentation” score from 3 to 4-5. I do appreciate the pickle chips. FPM and bell were the only other contestants who put something on the plate besides the main dish.
And I know it's been done this way for years, but a category for “Effort” would have raised a lot of the “Total”s for these scores. I guess it might bleed into “Challenge Goals” once the challenges become more challenging. Just trying to say that the people who made their own bread would have scored higher totals.

>>12190279 Bourbon Tri-Tip Sandwich
>Presentation: 4/5
Everything is good, but the arugula looks off, maybe is disorder or something else
>Originality: 3/5
It is a sandwich, I do not want to take out too manny points for doing a recipe that works instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, however, it does feel a bit too safe.
>Appeal: 5/5
Looks great, looks like a high-end sandwich
>Challenge Goals: 4/5
You made a great dish out of a theme that is usually seem as lazy-food without it being too complicated. I only wish the bread was homemade but I really cannot take any points for that.
>Total: 16/20

>>12190283 Classic French Sourdough Baguette Sandwich
>Presentation: 4/5
Classic, elegant, tasteful ... but there is a hair at the bottom-right corner of the upper-left quadrant i we were to divide the picture in nine quadrants. Happens to everyone but spoils what would have being a perfect presentation. Are you blonde?
>Originality: 3/5
You were not aiming for originality but that is no excuse. Still, you made a really good-looking sandwich
>Appeal: 5/5
You let the tapenade's oil soak for the bread just before taking the picture, absolutely devilish. You can imagine all contrasting textures and how delicious that crust must have being

You took great care of both the bread and fillings. Yours is my favorite submission

Again with the presentation. Also, the bread does not look appealing and the last shot reminds me of someone strangling a goose for some reason

Aside from a bit of smeared sauce and cheese it is completely fine. Although, in the last picture, is that the same cutting board you used to make the sandwich? Pretty Avant-Garde
>Originality: 5/5
Quite frankly it is a very fun idea, it stays within sandwich-realm but does pack an unexpected surprise in the form of that fried roll

I am the proud holder of a carnitas recipe from a chef in Mexico city, yours is an interesting twist. But the bread seems just fine, nothing more
>Appeal: 3/5
The bread looks a bit dry, and the carnitas look too lean. What I love about carnitas is the contrast in texture of the soft meat and the melt-in-your-mouth fat

Shit, sorry, I tried to check out >>12190818 's post links but that one slipped the radar. I would add a point to "Presentation" for that. Probably won't be allowed though. Chairman Gaijin, can you post the plated pics in the voting threads instead of the verticals? Linking to the verticals would be a great idea though.
The gloss on the bun looks really nice!
A slaw with cabbage, radish, and cilantro on top of the pork would have been a great addition and would balanced out the heat (assumption) of the pork and added some color.

Moose here (french sourdough baguette). Thanks for your score and criticism. Regarding what appears to be a hair, I did notice that but only all too late. I actually don't believe it's a hair, since I have very long black hair and I live alone (cat aside, but its definitely not its hair either). I think it's more likely a strand of fabric from the couche the baguettes proofed on, or something along those lines. Makes no difference though, I should have noticed it anyway.

[Anonymous No.12192107]

>>12192055
Admittedly yes but I try to provide reasoning and try to be objective so I don’t favor certain people over others. Last round I think I gave out low scores as well. If anyone cares this is roughly how I go about scoring:
I tend to normalize the presentation scores since most people can plate something halfway decent, with entries putting extra effort into including appealing colors, garnishes, clean cuts, etc. getting more points than something simply put together and put onto a plate.
Originality points aren’t standardized and I give points kinda based on surprise factor. Something adhering to an interesting idea helps here like bell’s coffee cake pitched as a sandwich or nikon’s rice flour crepe.
Appeal points are just how appetizing a dish is and I try not to dock points for things I personally dislike (like rye bread and olives) but try to look for a variety of complimenting tastes and textures. Mix of fresh and cooked; sweet, sour, savory; soft, chewy, crunchy. I know I’d get tired of eating something without some kind of variety. But I think I do end up giving extra points for odd things I do like (slimy textures; offal; fishy things; anything that sounds odd and tasty)
Theme points are based off whatever the chairman explicitly states; “inherent flavor and liveliness of rice” or “presentable and unique sandwich”
I’m open to changing my approach if others would share their approach

[Anonymous No.12192390]

>>12192107
Yeah, but everyone here seems to be grading on a curve, whereas you seem to be grading vs. a professional scale, it just seems kind of unfair to deny everyone points, and a bit underhanded, but whatevs, they're your votes.

Eh, I'm not that bothered personally, it's all just for >fun. When I'm voting I usually end up adding a few points because my initial ratings feel pretty harsh, which I arguably shouldn't do.

i kinda get it tho; even if the ranking remains unchanged by the same grader, since they're averaged, the low scores i gave out puts contestants in this round at a disadvantage compared to the previous round. If i normalize the scores and give everyone 2 free points in the creativity area, it would better match my scores from the previous round without affecting the ranking this round.
nothing against the chairman, im sure he's doing the best he can, but think the theme, or the descriptor for it, led to less inspired work this round

If the contest truly wants to be fair each contestants highest score and lowest score should not be counted since they can easily be statistical outliers that grossly effect their overall score.

Not talking about the scores of entire rounds. I'm talking about each rounds highest and lowest scores be discarded. If almost everyone is giving a contestant a score of 14 but one anon scores him 8 and another scores him 20 you should discard those two outliers to get a more accurate score statistically for the final calculation. Its a common practice when doing aggregation.

[Anonymous No.12193265]

>>12193249
Not sure if it would have effected the previous round but the possibility is certainly there and could easily be exploited by a butthurt anon. Lets say someone is getting high scores and a certain anon is pissed that entry is doin well, he can score it ultra low to try and hurt them. Alternatly someone could be double viting anonymously and scoring their own entry extra high to give themselves a point bump. By disregarding the highest and lowest score you reduce the chance that scores are being manipulated and you get a more accurate representation of what the competition is truly scoring dishes at.

A lot of high-scores this round with most getting above a 13! The runners-up for this round were nrrwmndd, the winner of round 1, with an average score of 15.1667 and Quaff with an average score of 14.8333! Well done to both of you!

And with this round at a close, the first updates for the open rounds contest winner clear out with nrrwmndd in 1st place with a 15.375 average followed close behind by Quaff with a 15.02 average and Sakeanon with a 14.43!

Well done to everyone in this round, especially Tiki Doomer who had a 6 point gain from round 1! We now move into round 3, the last of the open rounds! I will be making a new thread in a few hours once this thread dies off to announce the theme!
