I really liked the format and schedule of the last iron chef and agree that there should be plenty of time for everyone to get together, plan, prepare, practice, and whatnot. Basically, I propose that we follow along the previous time line and that J Biesinger announce the final judges by 7/18 who will unveil the secret ingredient on 7/21. One team will be required to post 4 photos on each of the following days 8/8, 8/10, and 8/12, the other team must post 8/9, 8/11, and 8/13. The 4 photo post will be shots of prep and cooking of the three dishes, or of just one of the three dishes. No text will be allowed. Any comments must be from the judges, commentator (J biesinger), and fellow board members. On 8/14, prior to 12:00 am, each team must post 3 photos of the three final dishes with explanation. The judges can ask questions of the teams, all questions and replies must be completed by 8/16. Scoring can be completed some time after q/a.
