Top Chef: The Fantasy Game

As the subtitle to The Gilded Truffle group says "The strange obsession now has a points system". What I didn't have a firm grasp on until this morning was what the actual point system was. Here are some the ways to earn and lose points with the three chefs you pick each episode:


Positive Points
1. Winning Quickfires and Elimination Challenges - obvious
2. Being liked but ultimately not winning the challenges
3. Yelling out how much time is left on the clock
4. One Point for being beeped by the FCC. Max of five points per character per episode. So find the filthy mouthed chefs and score!

Negative Points
1. Being eliminated
2. Sucking at cooking
3. Over/under salting/seasoning food

After our first week of competition Coley has a one point lead with 14 points. Colleen and Brendan are right on his heels with 13 and 12 points respectively. Rhonda took a bit of a hit by picking Ashley who finished in the bottom of the elimination challenge and is generally a dirty girl...Dirty as in Pig Pen dirty. Holly had a little oops and forgot to pick three chefs setting herself up for the greatest comeback in league history.

With negative points in play no lead is insurmountable so we encourage all those who still want to join in to do so. Click here to check out the group and sign up or use the invite Coley emailed to you.
