blinded submissions carry more weight because they remove a variable, not because we distrust the labs
nothing gets deleted from the log, including our own mistakes

does KP being verified mean my vial is fine
does a good result from PeptideMeter outweigh a bad one from Medutest
[edited]does a supplier certificate on its own count for anything
update from 24 months ago: MKM added evidence and the entry now reflects it
verification is revoked on a confirmed failure and the revocation stays in the log permanently
how does a supplier get verification revoked
[edited]why is a referral link disqualifying rather than just ignored
what counts: an independent report, on a lot you bought yourself, with the lot number, from a lab the room recognises
if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution
pattern not one result
post the photos
a good result with bad sample handling gets logged with a note about the handling. context is part of the record
what does not count: the supplier certificate alone, a screenshot, a referral link, or a friend who says it was fine
thin evidence
a verified supplier can still ship you a bad vial. verification is about the record, not about your parcel, take that with a pinch of salt
