Randomizer

Randomizer

The unique identifiers of this dataset are season-episode-round-challenge. The reason that episode is a unique identifier is because in Season 2, Jet and Antonia tied in all scores and so had a rematch in the Quarter-finals (episodes 6 and 7).

Randomizer (long form)

Randomizer (long form)

A dataset containing information about each challenge: protein, vegetables, equipment, style, time. However, it’s in “long form” so each challenge shows up multiple times. It categorizes the randomizer ingredients into categories and subcategories. If a value from one randomizer wheel better fits into another category, it has been reclassified (e.g., “Habanero” from the “wildcard” randomizer has been reclassified as “produce.”)

The unique identifiers of this dataset are season-episode-round-challenge-randomizer.
