this year we really fought to have an honest pizza contest, with clear rules and so that everyone has the same chance

but something is still missing

psychological subjection, if theymos makes a pizza, many will be tempted to vote for theymos' pizza even if it's not the most beautiful pizza

to have voters who vote objectively, in my opinion, we need to publish the pizzas anonymously so people can really vote for the one they like

Good point.

I'm trying to find a counterargument and honestly...😂 Idk.

I think this is mostly about having fun anyway than winning the prize money.

Great to see this year edition of the bitcoin pizza day is happening directly on the forum, perhaps it will achieve more users this way, congratulations! Really looking forward to see what the community is able to cook for this year edition.

I think that is should be quite easy to understand what can considered as pizza and what is simply not acceptable. Last year we saw some entries that were not pizza, some them were not even cooked. As long as you have a cooked dough you should be fine.

We are all adults, if you go to a restaurant and ask for a pizza I'm pretty sure you don't expect to receive a cold plate with some random ingredients, don't you?

In different countries, on plates you will see completely different pastries disguised as pizza (to the horror of the Italians).

Therefore, specifically stated conditions are the key to the transparency of the competition.

This also happened a lot in both edition of the Pie baking contest that I organized. I reckon that one dessert, in this case, may have different meanings in certain parts of the world, but even though users were warned in the second edition of what kind of pies we were looking for, some still submitted their own interpretation of it (which didn't got into the final voting phase).

In this particular case the rules are straightforward. If users are still unsure what kind of entry is being considered, what better way to get their doubts clarified than looking at the original pictures[1] that inspired the contest? Wink

Hello,

I can't choose between a classic pizza or a calzone, is it possible to make 2 pizzas for the contest ?

Thank you

Someone can argue it doesn't have to be beautiful, what matter is the taste (even though they didn't even take a bite) Tongue

But I understand with your point and you're correct, however the rules say you need to post your username + date on your pizza, even it's not posted by the user, people can still know who make it.

If people don't mind with the hassle, anyone who want to join need to post in this thread, then @OP or someone else could message each user about the special code that need to be written on a piece of paper, then post it along with the pizza. So, this could prove the authenticity of the participant than just uploading the pizza without any proof.

Although, someone can still abuse it by sending personal messages to his friends/followers/gangs in social medias to vote his pizza.

That's a very good idea. Otherwise, the sympathy factor will always play a part in the vote and end up distorting the result. But how would this be possible without a lot of effort? It can't the right way that we send the pictures of our pizza to icopress by PN Wink

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks Dad, for letting me use your monster of an oven. Also thanks for teaching me how to make bomb pizza! <3

HAPPY PIZZA DAY, YALL!

Love my bitcointalk.org brothers and sisters <3.

I used arugula to make the green price chart to represent the price of BTC going up.
I used olives to write "STONKS" which is from a meme related to enjoying a stock going up in price.
I used mushrooms to make part of the BTC symbol
I used pepperoni to make the BTC. I cooked the pepperoni separately so they would look glossier in the picture.

Another year and another time to talk about Bitcoin Pizza Day.

Can I share my study on Bitcoin Pizza Day here?

Did Laszlo Hanyecz exchange 40000 BTC for 8 pizzas, not 10000 BTC for 2 pizzas?
Laszlo Hanyecz's interview with BitcoinMagazine

Quote

To Hanyecz, who told Bitcoin Magazine that he spent something near 100,000 BTC on pizza that year, the purchase was just another drop in the bucket.

“We would just give people bitcoin on the forum,” he said — sometimes 100, sometimes 1,000 BTC at a time.

I can not make pizza but I hope my study can help people to know more about Bitcoin pizza day and how many bitcoins Hanyecz spent for pizzas.

We are all adults

This is a pretty big statement my friend.
Last year we had some bad moments I guess (I don't know if you noticed, but I voted last year's contest as the “fail fo the year” event on the BTCA).

I am sure that everything will go smoothly this year.

Clearly formulated conditions of the competition will help avoid different interpretations of these very conditions.

Then it was easier to immediately write like this:

Farewell, Leo

I can smell a lot of delicious pizzas baking in the ovens right now.

If you're ordering one online, make sure to pay in "sat" instead of "BTC" when typing "10000". Wink

I reserve the right to decide at my own discretion whether your baked goods are pizza or not.

Well, then you should add a description by what criteria you will evaluate the baked goods as pizza (are olives required? what about mushrooms? composition and thickness of the dough, acceptable ingredients, etc.). Or will need to send you a piece of it by mail for tasting?

By the way I did the Italian translation.

Pizza should be Bitcoin pizza (Bitcointalk style is allowed).

Would adding "Bitcoin" or "Bitcointalk" from cut paper (or something similar) to any baked goods make that pizza a competition entry (as has sometimes been done in past cooking competitions)?
