Highlights from this day
- never_for_sale — update from 24 months ago: GL Biochem added evidence and the entry now reflects it 22:54
- reta_resting_hr — coming back to this verification is not a recommendation. it means the evidence standard has been met, nothing more 23:02
- reta_resting_hr — a good result with bad sample handling gets logged with a note about the handling. context is part of the record 23:06
- cold_start_cy — slightly off topic but somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log 23:07
slightly off topic but a referral link is disqualifying because it makes the reporter an interested party. that is all
revoked stays in the log

what actually counts as evidence for a verification
who decides, the mods or the room

a lot number mismatch between the vial and the certificate is a serious finding. post it with photos of both
never for sale
how many independent results does a supplier need
refresh on evidence
[edited]two labs a point or two apart on one lot is normal. both go in the log with both numbers
thin evidence
how long does a verification stay current before it needs refreshing
how do you handle a result that is good but the sample handling was poor
why is a referral link disqualifying rather than just ignored
ok so i have a result but i did not buy the lot myself, does that count
lot number or nothing
nothing gets deleted from the log, including our own mistakes
