The episode 11 elimination table is missing something. There's a mystery box where Adam, Justise and Afnan are top 3 with Justise winning the challenge before the tag team Challenge. That means Justise has now 5 total winnings.

Elimination Table Format and Key Changes
I'm going to copy this information to all of the seasons for MasterChef. After thinking about this for some time, the Elimination Table and its associated key has been revamped. This was due to the fact that there were selections for whether or not a contestant was the last one saved or not in challenges. Whether or not a contestant is saved first, last, or anywhere in between is completely irrelevant and trivial. It is done strictly for the purposes of creating drama. All that matters is whether or not a contestant advanced or not, and if they were in the bottom or not. Thus, the former Pink "Low" for being a bottom entry but not last to advance has been eliminated altogether.

In addition, after talking this factor other with another editor, I realized that the Pressure Tests are nothing more than another Elimination Challenge, again, just with more drama added to it. So if a contestant gets into a Pressure Test, it should be treated the same as all the other Elimination Challenges, and if a contestant falls into the "bottom x" from a Pressure Test, they should be marked in the table as an Orange "Low", the same as any other Elimination Challenge. Not all Pressure Tests result in a "bottom x" (though most do nowadays) so if they don't announce a bottom, we can just use the PT code for those, and we can also continue to use the PT code for when a contestant gets into a Pressure Test and survives without being announced as a "bottom x".

Bottom line: Pink Low = gone. Orange Low = bottom of any elimination challenge including Pressure Tests. Purple Low = bottom of a Team Challenge.

Feel free to reply/chat me with any other questions about this. - SanAnMan (talk) 00:59, 5 August 2018 (UTC)
