Our food judging rules are pretty simple in The West (Wooden Spoon, 
West Kingdom; Silver Spoon, Principality of Mists; Copper Spoon, 
Principality of Cynagua; Silver Ulu, Principality of Oertha).

We're working on a revision. Here's the first step in the revision...

0-05 points - Documentation
0-05 points - Authenticity (of working recipe and interpretation)
0-05 points - Appearance/Presentation
0-05 points - Scope: Difficulty level of dish and Success in achieving it
0-10 points - Taste (it's food - the most important thing is that it 
tastes good!)
-------------------------------------------
30 points - TOTAL

We have three judges, so the individual maximum total is 90 points.
