I'm not sure I'm gonna get to make a big TG this year due to finances and living situation, so gimme some mouth-watering FOMO.

Who's got the best spread this year? Add yourself to the market if you intend to compete. Pics will be required, videos allowed, sharing your plans encouraged. Please annotate all evidence with which dishes you made and which others made (in-progress proof welcome!).

Submitting based on your fam's cooking is fine, as is presenting the spread if you go to a potluck, and there are extra points that are only available for Manifolder cooks and hosts. In that vein, you can add multiple submissions, e.g. if you're going to attend both a family Thanksgiving and a Friendsgiving you can add yourself once for each. You're also welcome to submit if you contribute at a soup kitchen or make a big communal meal in honor of an alternative holiday this week. We're here to celebrate the spirit of togetherness!

Each submitted answer resolves to its total score:

• 40 pts: How delicious the whole spread looks (by poll)

• 20 pts: Most delicious looking individual dish, among the dishes you made (by poll)

• 10 pts: Picture quality (by poll)

• 10 pts: Apparent effort or difficulty attempted (by poll)

• 10 pts: Decor, if you hosted (by poll)

• +4 pts: Per dish you made (as countable in pictures, duplicates count for half)

Scores over 100 resolve to 100%. Submissions that don't end up presenting sufficient evidence will be N/A'd to discourage 0% baits, but this also means you can also throw your name in the hat and bail later if you have to without penalty!

I will also award bonus prizes:

• 100 mana each for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place submissions overall

• 100 mana for highest-rated submission at close (market value, minor whalebait)

• 100 mana for my personal favorite submission

• 100 mana for the winner's favorite submission (other than their own)

  • (if multiple winners... I'll figure out something ig. The prize will still be awarded)

If you also feel inspired to award your own prizes for your favorite submission(s), please do so!

If you've added yourself to the market, you have until Sunday Nov 30th to post your evidence. Polls will be created after market close.
