Highlights from this day
a supplier improving shows in the log as later entries, not as earlier entries being edited
lot number or nothing
log it either way
thats evidence
thin evidence
update from 26 months ago: QST added evidence and the entry now reflects it
the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division
Reminder for ten_of_ten: dose day is today. Set 3 days ago.
is the verification log the same thing as a recommendation
how do you handle a result that is good but the sample handling was poor
does a supplier certificate on its own count for anything
we have never revoked on a single result. we have revoked on a pattern
unrelated but two labs disagree on the same lot, which one goes in the log
do blinded submissions carry more weight than open ones
how does a supplier get verification revoked
verification has never been for sale and never will be. offers get posted publicly with the sender redacted
if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score, still working it out
Reminder set. I will post here in 8 days.
pattern not one result

two labs a point or two apart on one lot is normal. both go in the log with both numbers

is a screenshot of a report ever acceptable
blinded is better
both numbers go in
thats not evidence
nothing gets deleted from the log, including our own mistakes
if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution
verification has never been for sale and never will be. offers get posted publicly with the sender redacted
does CPC being verified mean my vial is fine
quick one somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log
[edited]has anyone ever offered to pay for verification
follow up who decides, the mods or the room
