Highlights from this day
  • ring_size_down — how does a supplier get verification revoked the point of the standard is that it applies to suppliers we like as well as ones we do not 22:53
  • surpass_two — the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division 23:07
  • still_here_2024 — quick one if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution 23:09
  • still_here_2024 — i have watched this standard hold for three years including when it was inconvenient for a popular supplier, for what its worth 23:11
  • tenpence — verification is revoked on a confirmed failure and the revocation stays in the log permanently 23:25

is a screenshot of a report ever acceptable

never for sale

VL

genuine question we have never revoked on a single result. we have revoked on a pattern

SH

a good result with bad sample handling gets logged with a note about the handling. context is part of the record

blinded is better

how do you handle a result that is good but the sample handling was poor

RS

how does a supplier get verification revoked
the point of the standard is that it applies to suppliers we like as well as ones we do not

ST

what does not count: the supplier certificate alone, a screenshot, a referral link, or a friend who says it was fine

refresh on evidence

the mods maintain the log. the room supplies the evidence and argues about it, which is the correct division

quick one if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution

TE

the log is readable chronologically and that is deliberate. the trajectory matters more than the current line

verification is not a recommendation. it means the evidence standard has been met, nothing more

verification is revoked on a confirmed failure and the revocation stays in the log permanently

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

a supplier improving shows in the log as later entries, not as earlier entries being edited

both numbers go in
