Welcome to the Tale 6 Cooking Research Guild and the new home of The MP Project. If you wish to help me with the Cooking Research data gathering we will need to properly do this tale, please come apply to the Guild Hall right next to the Seven Lakes Chariot.

An Intro to Cooking Research

The key rule of early tale research is a strong stomach, a lot of patience, and a good 'ol stop watch! Now another rule of thumb is once you start testing an item, you finish that item before you abandon it. Beware, this can be anywhere from 6 different cookings, to 10. So be prepared to be tied to that kitchen! Now, in a little more detail, the first step is to plot everything out. And how we do that is by triangulation. We take an item we want to test, and we pair that item up with 3 common items which will be paired with every single other item in existence, or at least until we have a good base of items to plot on a scatter chart.

The 3 Common items we will use to pair everything with this tale are: Carrot Juice, Cabbage, and Mutton. If one of these hits a hashed cooking, go with either Oil, or Garlic as a fallback.

Now, you test each pairing with 6 of one common ingredient, and 1 of the item in question that you are testing. Now since we do not have 7 gastro yet to evaluate it with the click of a button, you have to eat it and sit there with a stop watch timing the duration of the pairing to the exact second. Once done, write that down! Make sense? Awesome! Now, put 13 of the same common ingredient, and 1 of the item in question. Eat, and time to the exact second. Write that down. Go ahead and write down the stats if they look gorgeous as well. Once done, put them on here, in the section below. It doesn't have to look pretty, just keep everything on the same line so I can easily parse it once I fix the spreadsheet.
