do not send your only vial

do not send your only vial. that has happened twice and both times it hurt

results are back one odd result in a pool is still one vial. it gets logged with the same caveat as any other, keep half back

update on the current round who is holding the list this round

i keep half of every submission back so that a surprising result can be repeated somewhere else

about the split again postage goes in the pot and gets split per sample, which is the only split that has ever not caused an argument, full results either way

research use only material is not approved for human use and testing it does not change that, ok ill stop

adding a standard this round results go up in full, including the ones nobody wanted, and that has been the rule since the first round

what happens if a submission gets lost in transit, or have i misread it

if you are new, join a round as a participant before you offer to organise one

the round is a bill split between people who wanted the same thing tested. it is not a service and nobody is making anything, free admin, please be patient with it

box goes friday chain of custody in hobby testing is weak and we say so in every writeup, nobody here interprets for you

round update a drop address is a favour, not a job. whoever offers gets to set the cut off, labels off before it ships

send the vial you actually used, decants introduce a step nobody can audit later

about three weeks

i coordinate the round, collect the codes, and post every result including the dull ones, full results either way

leftover material goes back to whoever sent it or gets disposed of. it does not get redistributed, labels off, numbers on
