blinded submissions carry more weight because they remove a variable, not because we distrust the labs

blinded is better
update from 26 months ago: HJ added evidence and the entry now reflects it

if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score
a verified supplier can still ship you a bad vial. verification is about the record, not about your parcel
is there a version of the log i can read chronologically

what actually counts as evidence for a verification
what counts: an independent report, on a lot you bought yourself, with the lot number, from a lab the room recognises, ask me again in a month
is a screenshot of a report ever acceptable
refresh on evidence
unrelated but how long does a verification stay current before it needs refreshing

not a recommendation
two labs a point or two apart on one lot is normal. both go in the log with both numbers
does a supplier certificate on its own count for anything

thats not evidence
the point of the standard is that it applies to suppliers we like as well as ones we do not
the lot number on the certificate does not match my vial, what now
nothing gets deleted
coming back after 23 months, has the standard changed
who decides, the mods or the room
