One Stamina point was removed from all members of both Tribes at Day Change.

Come on in, everybody. :)

Let's get our first look at the new Kyukou Tribe...

And our first look at the new Kyubukai Tribe...

Looks like you've both slimmed down quite nicely, but we still need to make sure you all enjoy healthy diets!

That's good, because that's what today's Challenge is all about.

The name of this Semi-Live Challenge is Baratie Lunch Rush and it is a remix of the Challenge first performed in One Piece Survivor: Drum Rockies. You can read the original challenge here: http://w11.zetaboards.com/OPSurv4_Drum_Rockies/topic/8906561/1/. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you at least familiarise yourself with the items and their original ratings.

In the original challenge, your goal was simple: take a bunch of ingredients and make a series of dishes, with the intent of earning the most points possible. The original challenge also featured a random element known as Gourmet, where certain ingredients either ruined dishes or worked to greatly improve them in combination.

In this remixed challenge, the goal is still the same. The items are still the same. But the values have changed, the Gourmet element has been replaced, and new Traits will affect the challenge.

First of all, let's look at the Ingredients and talk about their characteristics:

Baratie Lunch Rush - Ingredients List
Alubarna Duck SteaksSea King FlankMilky Dial DrinkWest Mintia BerriesCaesar Candy
Angel Puff CreamSpecial Sakura AleFuschia FlourSandora CrabmeatWhiskey Peak Melons
Syrup LicoriceCured SwordfishJaya CherriesRobelle RosesLapahn Gravy
Cocoa Weed PebblesSnow SpinachBellemere's FinestGrape RootSkypiea Pumpkins
Sea PotatoesFresh Gyasta Bison FilletsBig Horn Special: Crushed Bison HornSt. Briss BiscuitsWanze Noodles


In the original Challenge, each Ingredient was assigned a Flavor Profile (Sweet, Salty, Savory, Tart, or Filling) and a Strength Value (1-5). No two ingredients shared the same combination of Flavor Profile and Strength Value. In this version of the Challenge, these rules still apply, however, all Ingredients have retained only either their Flavor Profile or their Strength Value. That means the other characteristic has changed. An item that originally had Filling and 4 could now be Filling and 2 or Sweet and 4. The only way to know the item's new value is to Claim it.

Before we talk about what you're going to do with the Ingredients, let's talk about how Claiming works.

Each member of each Tribe will Claim one ingredient in their Confessionals. The Flavor Profile and the Strength Value of that item will be revealed to that player and that player only.

All-Star Advantage: At this point, the player will be granted the choice to Keep the Ingredient or Claim Another Ingredient Instead in exchange for 100 All-Star Points. This will allow you to see the Flavor Profile and Strength Value of the first Ingredient, but this choice must be made before any additional characteristics of the Ingredient are revealed, and this choice must be made before the Flavor Profile and Strength Value of the second Ingredient is revealed. If another Ingredient is drawn, that Ingredient is automatically Kept.

Once you Keep an Ingredient, you are free to share it with your Tribe. However, your Ingredient may possess additional Traits. These Traits are secret until they are obtained, but here are some hints on Traits:

[ ] Some ingredients come at a premium! Try obtaining name brand ingredients and it may just give your tribe a leg up!
[ ] Some ingredients give a player the ability to spoil the opposing Tribe’s ingredients, encouraging Tribe rivalry and adding a dash of unpredictability to the challenge.

Now then, once your Tribe has all of its ingredients, it's time to make your Dishes. Each Tribe may present three dishes for Scoring, and you must use at least nine Ingredients across all three Dishes.

[ ] A Strength Value of 1 to 5 in each Flavor Profile will result in a Taste Value of 1 to 5, respectively.
[ ] Combining Ingredients of the same Flavor Profile will add together their Strength Value.
[ ] If a dish's Flavor Profile has a Strength Value of 6 or more, it becomes TOO salty, filling, bitter, etc. and the Taste Value declines by one for every Strength Value above 5.
[ ] Combining two Flavor Profiles will increase the Taste Value by a factor of the opposite Flavor Profile. For instance, having a Taste Value of 5 in Salty and 4 in Sweet will result in an overall Taste Value of 20.
[ ] Combining three Flavor Profiles will ruin the dish and grant you a Taste Value of zero.

The winning Tribe is the tribe that score the highest combined Taste Value across their three dishes.

What are you playing for? The winning Tribe gets:

The Challenge begins at 12:30 PM FST (in about 30 minutes). You will have 18 hours to complete the Challenge, so until around 6:30 AM FST. You may use your Tribe Camp threads to coordinate and communicate, but you may NOT share your Ingredients that you have claimed until you have decided to Keep or Switch them in your Confessional.

If you have any questions, please ask here.

I've asked an impartial third party to pick an ingredient from the list at random. That ingredient has been designated the tiebreaker ingredient.

Each member of your tribe, after 12:00 noon, will be allowed to guess one item at a time. Once they guess, they may guess again as soon as flood control allows. The first tribe to name the tiebreaker ingredient three times by three different members of the tribe will win the challenge.

The list of remaining ingredients, used ingredients or the whole list?

That seems random like hell.
The other option was "tribe to complete their dishes using the fewest 5 ingredients", but I don't think you'd find that very fair either.

It's not my fault you guys had to go and tie like this. This is the solution I came up with after not sleeping.

You could give us the win since we used less ingredients :$
It takes a true masterchef to do the same with less.

I could, but somebody has to pay for keeping me up all night.
In this scenario, it's everybody.
