hmm well maybe not official then.
honeslty to me, having to make the same number pop up 3 times in a row or back to back or whatever is BS. if you burp it once and it pops a 180.5, game over in my book.

i agree.

yeah i don't write the rules. Dante is a dick tho, and edge audio was very cool at finals.

i know, i was just putting in my .02c //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

as long as its verified, its all good to me.

The point is not looking for a fluke situation. if your system can burp a certain number, you should be able to repeat it. If you cannot, the guy who CAN should win.

What if a manufaunction occurs and the TL accidently presented a 200db reading for someone. Should they not be required to repeat the score?

Obviously the reason for duplication of a score is looking for a 'world record' that is a solid score, not a one night situation when the wind was just right and the sun and moon were aligned perfectly etc. That is how the competition works, and a competition system should be setup up accordingly. The big guys all know this.

i dont see it that way. if its a properly working TL, and the score is put up and verified, to me, its a record. now if it was only him and his buddies around and no third party person or video then yes, i think its invalid.

sure maybe, heat, cold, elevation or whatever element (i dont know if those actually affect anything im just giving an example) might help/hurt can be a factor, but if thats the case then all world records need to be reattempted in a secured building that guiness or whatever, approves of. sprinting records, audio, eating, jumping, etc etc whatever.

thats just my opinion.

edit: this assumes they were able to hit 180.5 consecutively at some point in time and then were not able to do it later at a different event. if they truly did hit a 180.5 ONLY 1 time (even at the same event), then i will agree with you.

Repeatability is a key in any test situation. We are not talking about a 100 meter sprint where the guy whould have to run it twice and finish at the same time, we are talking about a machine/system producing a service (in this case, extreme SPL). Again there are any number of things that could 'go wrong' to secure a false reading, or give someone an unfair advantage (or disadvantage)... repeatability leads itself to giving a 'world record' credibility. The idea that he did it (whoever) and he can do it again. It legitimizes a score that would otherwise be considered hard to believe (being a world record n all).
