Only 5 of the 10 points are for Overall Taste, so I would say a good pic would count towards recipe description 
theoretically a recipe with a taste score of 4 could win over one with a 5…

I went with a pic, sent my mix to @fidalgo_vapes this morning no more messing with it. I’d started to change things for the sake of it. The limit of 5 (great rule, makes it more interesting)
I was disappointed with my Pecan Pie it was very thin, that needed more work…

I think we need to change the scoring criteria next time .I couldnt come up with anythin else. The overall taste has to always be he majority imo

Bcf did the judging a bit differently but they also used a mystery flavor. I think description, accuracy, use of mystery flavor, taste and originality. Each of those was +5 but you could do 1-5 in each tier. Totaling of 25 points.

It took 3 weeks to hammer down the mystery flavor in that contest. People are complaining about the restrictions now. The more it’s draged out the more complaining. I’d be happy with great tasting recipes.

Ya we knew that was going to happen. Any restrictions are going to disappoint someone. Wait until the next one we have planned. In my opinion the contest has to be fun and challenging at the least.

Great idea…If we do more than just this one there will be some changes in regards to the judging criteria.

It was definitely interesting how some people must have known exactly what it was and then those who took a pretty good guess.

Remember Wayne’s midweek critique, 5 flavors in the same flavor house

Omg ya i do, at least with that one yuo got to choose yur own flavor house. Most people who submit recipes in these contests are knowledgeable and good mixers so the restrictions are needed. To be honest I regret not beng more specific with the profile this time. Doing this was a great learning experience for me. Without @Ken_O_Where and @Rocky02852 i would have been screwed.

I thought i nailed it a couple times. When Rocky02852 siad WF Pitaya i thought no way . I literally ran to the Wf flaves and was mind blown that was the one. I was even more amazed someone knew to check that flavor.

Just so folks know, this really was Fiddys idea. When he came to me with it i thought hell yeah, great idea. And so far some really good mixes have been submitted.
TLDR: Fiddy is being modest here.
I still taste and smell only aloe, i would never have guessed it. So gross.

You what??? You went Peppermint? Or Aniseed, or any derived flavours???
Prob dared too much… 
But if “we” (as mixers) don’t dare, who does? Well done SD!
