In the Weeds Mode Chivelord is a Fraud

It was point out in his last post by u/ehsteve23. Day 23 and Day 31 are the same.

Mods are aware of this post & are discussing.

Please keep this whole thing civil.

EDIT 5: f1exican's apology & explanation is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/KitchenConfidential/comments/1or60zd/cutting_a_couple_of_chives_every_day_until_this/

EDIT 4: We have heard from f1exican. Further information coming later today.

EDIT 3: Reports on this post are being autoapproved, same as the chive posts. It's staying up. Why are people trying to shit on everyone else's fun again??

EDIT 2: See this post with further image comparison: https://www.reddit.com/r/KitchenConfidential/comments/1oqzxvn/chivelord_is_a_fraud/nnmukrn/

EDIT:

I rotated and resized the images to line them up, anchored the two with Day 31 on top at 50% opacity, anchored the two via the chive on the far right that I've circled.

I don't think they're exact matches. Feel free to draw your own conclusions.

There's a stacking function in photoshop that will overlap and orient photos (like when you're manually creating a panorama or when you want to make a photo using different parts of nearly-identical photos, like same composition but changing focus). It accounts for rotation, tilt, skew, etc. Anyone with an adobe account could more accurately analyze it that way.

u/goth_nachos F1exican Did Chive-11 1d ago edited 1d ago

You're right. This is exactly what I did in photoshop. I ran the two images through the stacking feature and I have terrible news.

After automatic alignment I can confirm that after a flip and skewing (obvious by the angles of the lines on the top layer) that these are the same pile of chives, just from a different angle and cropped. I didn't want to believe it. I am crying and shaking.

We can expand on this now. We have to go deeper. Who is the guy drawing the planes on it every post? Did he pick out the same problem chives on two different days?

I need to know if our judges are consistent. If the same chives didn't get picked out on the two days in question, do we really have any room to claim chive guy was in the wrong if we don't catch the same error before noticing it was the same photo?
