If you want to be a judge, either PM me or post in the thread.
Judges have to make each dish prepared. A judge may state beforehand that they will have to sit a dish out if there is a conflict. There will be 3 judges, although it is unlikely that they will remain the same 3 throughout the contest given Real Life Interference. All judges (original and replacement) will be agreed upon beforehand by both competitors. A family may act as a single judge, but they only get one collective vote and recipes do not have to take more than one eater into consideration (single-serving recipes are fine). Staff members are eligble to be judge but will be treated as any other member.
Contestants shall produce a total of 20 recipes of varying types (side-dishes, entrees, desserts, etc.). A contest moderator will name a type (of the types predetermined by the contestants), and the contestants will have 48 hours from the contest moderator's post to post their recipe in the thread. The judges will then have 3 days to make the recipes and vote in whatever manner the judge best determines. Judges will follow the directions to the best of their abilities with their own household items. Judges may receive extra time up request. Contestants can mutually agree to post multiple recipes at the same time, with deadlines to be pre-determined by contestants.
I think those are pretty fair rules. Obviously they're highly flexible, so if either candidate doesn't like them or parts of them, let me know. But it's a starting point.
