Custom recipe competition

  • This idea is for admins to offer a prize for a usable custom recipe. (the player has to create the recipe themselves) The entrants are posted to a thread on the GD website.

    The admins then decide the winner based on max food, max water, max health and max stamina the recipe gives when eating one of each. Also they will be looking for the best but cheapest to produce of these recipes.

    My examples are:


    (this would also be my entry, so something to beat)

    And is also usefull in helping players find a good recipe for making their food.

  • Like the suggestion, and would add some twists to it to make it more interesting and measurable.


    Three types of recipes:

    - Effective

    - Realistic

    - Creative


    Suggestion to participants:

    - Don't reveal the participating recipe(s) until event date;

    - Experiment/discover different things;


    General rules:

    - Recipes competition to take place specific date;

    - Participates will be required to reveal both the recipe and the an example of the recipe;

    - Max craft skill of 6 in recipe (700% in crafting or 600% + focus chill);

    - Min of 80 (either food or water)

    - Food/water capped @100 for effect calculation

    - Formula to calculate effectiveness (suggestion):

    effectiveness = (0.5 * lowest(food,100))+ (0.3 * foodRate(hp)) + (0.2 * foodRate(stam)) / <weight_constant>*weight

    lowest = if food <= 100 then food or if food > 100, then 100

    foodRate = if food <= 100 then HP of if food > 100 then (hp / food)

    weight_constant = defined per context type


    Effective Recipe

    - Any ingredient accepted without restrictions;

    - No limitation of different items;

    - No limitation on quantity per item;

    - weight_constant as 4;


    Realistic Recipe

    - Any ingredient accepted without restrictions;

    - Exactly 5 different items per recipe;

    - One item with exactly 5 of it;

    - One item with exactly 1 of it;

    - all other items with either 2 or 3 of it;

    - weight_constant as 2;


    Creative Recipe

    - Any ingredient accepted without restrictions;

    - Minimum of 6 different items per recipe;

    - No limitation on quantity per item;

    - weight_constant as 1.5;
