So yes as it has already been hinted, I haven't watched top chef. But I think the two phases should totally overlap. The show's format seems simple enough (this isn't a bad thing) and a great candidate for a mafia game to be modeled after. Perhaps a few more compliments to the mod and I can get the phantom vote removed...muhahaha.

Anyways, the negative penalty for bottom scoring also wasn't mentioned, but I imagine that if I had been watching the show I'd have seen that coming? Because without a negative at the bottom, the obvious choice is the 1-20 dish; it's your only real chance of winning (unless something very strange happens like everyone picking the same safe dish). Of course, it's also your only real chance of losing when there's the bottom penalty.

Also, I'd like to point out

Discuss strategy is different to it's time to start voting. I don't know I think you're flogging the wrong issue here. Oh and as you said you should have expected to have a penalty otherwise there wouldn't have been a choice for different options like there were.

I expected the downside, but it wasn't ever mentioned ;) So I chose based on what was confirmed, and I'd do the same thing again if I had to. And what do you know, day 2 I bet I will get a similar choice!

I'll be all helpful and do a vote count:

3 UltimaAvalon (Shteven, Dybeck, UltimaAvalon)
2 Shteven (Mexal, Confused)
2 Mexal (Manaspryte, DragonsofSummer)
2 Rogueben (Flameaxe, Jdodge)
2 Jdodge (Qman)
1 ManaSpryte (Rogueben)

Honestly I was quite surprised how many people have two votes. Random voting seems to like voting with other people apparently ;)

The only person to put on a third vote did it to themselves... Although one could consider Confused's vote to be the third vote, as I have a phantom vote. But now can we really lynch someone who doesn't even know where they are?

Now start posting, people!

I like how JDodge has two votes on him, 1 of which is QMan, the other is.......no one? lol

I think JDodge and Flameaxe's "Team" should be looked in to. Is Team Asshat a scumteam? GIVE ANSWERS

ROFL @ UA. I think that the possibility of Team Asshat being a scumteam is pretty low but I love the idea. Some people still haven't posted in the elimination round. Come on people lets get this game rolling.

I think Lee should have said something about -constructive- posts being needed. *cough*

Anyways, my vote count wasn't wrong, it was just warped in from the future. See, Jdodge now has the two votes it predicted. So yeah, it's totally accurate.

So I'm pretty sure they've probably pulled the team asshat thing before, but it is pretty unhelpful. Let's teach them a lesson!

Unvote.

You know...getting out of this near baseless voting stage would be ideal.

Lets go after scum, not members of a prestigious organization dedicated to perfection in the art of asshatishness. KK?
