HOW TO PLAY:

In order to play, you need to have a minimum of
10 recipes of your own to give players a choice.

Go to the last post of this thread. Choose a recipe from the current player's cookbook who is IT !!!! The recipe you choose must have at least one of the ingredients from the post.

Post a reply declaring the recipe you intend to make.
Please include Chef's name, the link to recipe, and recipe number. ALSO please add QI for the qualifying Ingredient. Finally, end your post with your name going to the market to get your chosen ingredients. (list 3 ingredients). This must be THREE ingredients that can be found in
your recipes.
Please do not change your ingredients once posted! Players are often looking for recipes and changing them in the middle will cause confusion.
If you leave ingredients that cannot be found in your recipes this is called a
MISTAG and a post will be left stating
MISTAG, Please try again.
The list of ingredients of the last person to be tagged will be posted.... to continue the game.

RULES
When you chose to tag someone’s recipe, you are committing to making that recipe and reviewing it within 2 weeks (14 days). We realize life sometimes does get in the way of our cooking/tagging, so if you aren’t going to be able to meet the 2 week deadline, please ask us for an additional 2 week extension.
Players will be put on the Restricted List once they have passed the 4 weeks (28 days) deadline, unless they have special circumstances. If you feel you have a special circumstance preventing you from completing a tag within 4 weeks, please contact the game host.
Once on the Restricted List, you will no longer be able to participate in any of the games or events in the “Cooking Games with Friends Forum” until you have made and reviewed any recipes that have you on that list. This is done in order to keep it fair for all players in the games.
will make and review one of your recipes containing that ingredient.
Tag as many recipes that you want, there is no restriction as long as you post your reviewed recipes by the due date
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I claim "first dibs" on a player who is IT?
No - dibs are not allowed. If you really want to tag a particular player's recipe, you need to be the first one to tag a specific recipe.
Help! I tagged a recipe but I can't remember the date it is due!
No problem - simply take a look at the Master Status List where all tagged recipes will be listed, including the dates they are due. Once you have reported back to this thread about a tagged recipe, the Status List will be updated to reflect that you have either made the recipe, or asked for an extension or substitution. Substitutions are
only granted if you are unable to find an ingredient in the recipe you tagged.
The Master Status List is very long so how can I find the recipe I am looking for?
Go to the beginning of the Master Status List and then press your CONTROL key and then, while still holding it down, press the letter "F" - a search window will pop up where you can type in the recipe name or your name and it will find it for you.
I already tagged a recipe this week - can I still tag additional recipes?
Absolutely - sometimes you want to tag a whole menu's worth of recipes. As long as you are able to prepare all those recipes by their deadlines, tag away. There is no limit to the number of times you play tag as long as you can meet the deadlines for preparing & reviewing the recipes you have selected. However, there is an exception to this rule. All is asked is that you please do not monopolize the game with constant tagging. If this happens, a games host may have to step in and put a limit on your tagging. This is only an exception and rarely happens.
Photos: If you have photographed the dish you prepared please include the photo in your final post. We would LOVE to see it. If you have a picture you want to share here and don't know how, just ask!
