[edit]

We need opinions on the MasterChef (U.S.) elimination table. We're kind of in the middle of a discussion which is getting nowhere. The current elimination table, in my view, is hard to follow due to the lengthy instructions and similar color coding in the key. Therefore i've proposed the table to be amended in a way that it follows the australian format.

Reasons for the new format

EASY TO READ
Not confusing as the whole text is used.
SHOWS STATUS "BTM 2" BEFORE ELIMINATION. (this clarifies that the cook came in btm 2 and then got eliminated and was not expelled before results, something that happens in Hell's Kitchen.)
NO KEY NEEDED
LESS COLORS
COHERENT
NO PLACE SECTION

I would be needing votes to make the desired changes permanent. I recommend the table to be altered for better comprehension of the game. Please vote in favor or against the proposed change in order to reach a consensus. Thank you :) --Imtitanium (talk) 08:27, 5 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Amina

[edit]

I'm wondering if it's worth noting that she's the first (and so far only) Muslim contestant on the show. From what I'm aware of (based off of a TV Week article that'll eventually resurface somewhere), the only real concession that was made for her was that all of the meat was halal (which doesn't change the appearance, texture or taste of the meat in any way). I'm not sure if she was doing anything involving alcohol though, can anyone help me there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.174.194.169 (talk) 08:08, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
