[Discussion] Bitcoin Pizza Day on Bitcointalk 🍕

[BossJumong]

@fillippone Is your entry sponsored by Whirlpool? That was beautiful Bitcoin logo and because of that you didn't give much effort of your pizza dough to be round.  Looks delicious anyway.

or starts working on the elaboration some pizza right now...

I am!
Every time I cook a pizza for this contest I take some note to be remembered the following year. I have this three years old note on my phone that I update every year.
I have some improvement in mind, and I am sure next year my pizza will be even better.

lol no, that wooden thing is from the stone I use to cook the pizza in the traditional oven, but I decided to use it also for the new smaller electrical one, as it comes with a strange metallic one which is much more unpractical to use.

Making the perfect round pizza dough is part of the fun, and a necessary skill to make a good pizza!

As for the taste, I'm sure your work is the best, but unfortunately here we only send pictures as something that can be judged... the appearance and creation of the toppings are taken into consideration for the assessment from the eyes of the jury... if only the jury's tongues could participate in giving an assessment, maybe the results will be a little different compared to just looking at it... because literally, pizza is food, not just a work of art to look at.

I admit that this year's contestants have experienced an increase in quality compared to last year. Many people are starting to show their intention to make Bitcoin Pizza Day actually make Pizza. I really like the increased efforts of the contestants in 2024.

Last year I made pizza to join in the fun, but this year I couldn't do it anymore for several reasons. But the contest is still lively without me, it still makes me happy.

It's even hard to believe that there are such a large number of participants this year. Indeed, the contest has become much more interesting. During all the days, I watched carefully how people prepared pizza and made it as tasty as possible. I felt it even through the computer monitor))) I can say with certainty that most of the pizza came out delicious and only left to eat it.

At first there was no desire to participate and cook, but then decided to take this action. I didn't regret it, because on the first day I ate almost half of it during the day.

Friends, thank you all for your participation. I will need several days to prepare the thread for voting and organize everything in such a way that various factors do not affect the objectivity. Also, please don't be offended if someone's baked goods are not included in the voting. This will just mean that your baked goods are more consistent with the criteria of a vegetable pie than a pizza.

as i missed last year's event completely, i'm very determined to take part in this year's BTCitcoin pizza day on Bitcointalk🍕
today was finally the day and i can present you my pizza🍕
in the background you can see a matching artwork by mx12.levins, , a matching keychain and there are also two gin cocktails🖼️🍕🍹

Love the pizza created by our Bitcointalk member Cygan! Also, I love seeing one of my Pizza Day artworks in the background. By the way, they are still available.

Very nice pizza! But I have a misunderstanding.
Apparently, these little letters B are made of cheese, and also I see small slices just like I suspect cheese, but after the photos before and after you put the pizza in the oven, nothing changed, the cheese did not melt and the pizza was the same as it was before you, we put it in the oven, I don't understand how it turns out, it's very interesting.

Thank you previously for paying attention and commenting on my pizza. Maybe this makes you confused why cheese is not melting even though it has been roasted, it's because I use slice cheese to decorate pizza. So, even though the pizza has been baked in the cheese oven it won't melt. Unless I use mozzarella cheese, when roasting will definitely melt. That is the advantage of using slice cheese, and I also happen to use the ingredients at home because the time limit for the entry is almost gone. So I use the remaining time as best as possible to be able to participate in the Bitcoin Pizza contest this year.

First rule of contest is - Read the rules before participating.

      How it works?
From the time the thread is published until June 1st

I will still be accepting applications on June 1st (all day long).

Friends, who has encountered this? I've been working on bbcode for the last 10 hours and everything was fine... I took a break to drink some tea and see that all the images I uploaded today are now displayed incorrectly (more than 120 images).

Imgbb hosting has been experiencing frequent errors lately, have you used other hosting alternatives such as https://talkimg.com/

unfortunately your work seems to have to take longer, very sad you have spent so much time doing that.

Seems to be the same as in Bandwidth Limit Exceeded and asktom.cf image proxy: Bandwidth limit exceeded

It's not just you; LoyceV also ran into this error. Don't worry; the limit is for viewing images, not posting them, so everyone else can see your image fine, at least until they hit the limit, too. It's almost certainly the art contest: presumably when theymos set this limit, he didn't figure on there being a thread where people would be viewing so many large images at once.

Maybe theymos could help like in this thread?

I doubled the bandwidth allowance. (Maybe just temporarily.)

If the images are alone, do they appear?
Really 120 images being requested at the same time can cause connection to the server to be cut by the proxy.

But, were there 120 participations? I don't think so.
You could combine the photos from each participation into one, and then just share that compilation image.

To be precise, I do not see a single image (error) while if I use Tor, everything is displayed correctly.

Thank you. I sent him a PM.

I posted 1 image in this thread (above) but I can't see it. While I was editing the bbcode and adding new images everything was fine. I added the last one .. I saved it (everything was ok) and when I returned and refreshed the page, I saw that everything was displayed with an error.

But, were there 120 participations? I don't think so.

About 125 people took part in the contest. And if you group several images, then each of us will be confused by so much visual data... so I followed the path of 1 image per 1 user (this way we got 2 posts of 56 images each).

Hey! The last picture is a very important one! Please don’t skip it only to make your table work correctly!

My suggestion is using talkimg. You can even upload many pictures at a time.

Good day, icopress. I used to use imgbb.com for uploading images, but since some time it started to work badly and images are not displayed on the forum. I recommend using forum photo hosting talkimg.com, which is a good alternative. You should not have any problems with it. If still the problem persists, in that case you should contact the admin.

Imgbb has autodelete-drop-down menu on their upload page which sets the time frame to hold downloaded image. Is there a chance that you blindly set it  for too low  value and downloaded your images?  If not  then it was probably a bug from their part.

As other suggested, to be on the safe side, use talkimg instead of imgbb.

Well, I didn't realize there were so many participations. 
Congratulations to everyone and good luck.

If you have difficulty compiling all of this into one topic, I can create a special TalkImg page for this compilation. Users must consult the page to check and make their choices.

Friends, who has encountered this?

See:

It only bans you for up to 4 hours.

Seems to be the same as in ~ asktom.cf image proxy: Bandwidth limit exceeded

Credits to you, I had forgotten about that topic.

[icopress]

Theymos doubled the limit! This means that I will soon publish a vote!

Thanks again everyone for the great advice.

Friends, thank you all for your participation. I will need several days to prepare the thread for voting and organize everything in such a way that various factors do not affect the objectivity. Also, please don't be offended if someone's baked goods are not included in the voting. This will just mean that your baked goods are more consistent with the criteria of a vegetable pie than a pizza.

Excellent icopress... much needed update I guess... even me when I saw those "creative" designs I was asking my self... is that pizza?

But, were there 120 participations? I don't think so.

About 125 people took part in the contest. And if you group several images, then each of us will be confused by so much visual data... so I followed the path of 1 image per 1 user (this way we got 2 posts of 56 images each).

120/125 so 5 participants didn't meet the pizza criteria?

Just saw the voting thread. So its 112/125 and 13 participants didn't meet the criteria?

• You can vote for 5 pizzas ➥ Note.
• You can edit your post (your vote) until the thread is locked.
• You must have 50 earned merits to vote ➥ Note.

So, are we voting for our own pizza?

[LoyceV]

So, are we voting for our own pizza?

Can I afford not to vote for my wife's pizza?

On a more serious note: I was hoping to use the voting to also Merit a lot of pizzas, but that won't work with the anonymous voting. I was hoping to exclude the disqualified pizzas by not going through the thread.
