In the spirit of Sharing and Collaboration, it would be really cool if we could open the (public) Flavor Stash of a fellow mixer and click a button to create a Common Flavor Stash.
Once you have a list of all common flavors between yourself and the other mixer, you could more easily create something for them to try out, either just for fun, or for collaborative creation of great recipes. Or, just as a challenge to spur creativity. No shopping necessarily necessary!
I like that idea alot, especially collaboration and we haven’t done that enough.
Would be great to see that more often, but as you pointed out, many of us do have the same flavors and wouldn’t need to get additional.
With the sheer amount of mixers on here, difficult to find the group that owns all flavors or mixes similar profiles, so adding that feature could be extremely helpful and making it a bit more interesting.
This is true. But, it would make it a lot more smooth, and not send folks scrambling to the nearest shopping cart!
As an experiment, I just went to @Alisa’s stash to see if I could find out how many of my 148 flavors are in her 500+ stash. My eyes glazed over before I got though the C’s!
Standard mixing competitions, if there is such a thing, would probably stick to the most commonly used flavors so more people could join. But, if this button existed, there could be some very interesting outcomes.
I remember the “febuary” mix this that @ken_o_where (my tags arent working ) started and thought it was very cool to see how different mixers tackled the same profile. I would have liked to have seen it continue. Challenge was not limited to flavor selection merely final profile. I might just start a new similiar thread… Ideas for a november flavor profile?
Great idea but difficult to code.
It might be easier to code it in a way that when you looked at another mixers stash the flavors you have in your stash get highlighted in their stash, similar to the recipe add flavor dropdown.
I figured we’d get to that at some point. Sure would be cool, though. The highlighted common flavor thing would be cool, just not as cool as a master shared list. Maybe @daath has a few tricks up his sleeve?
