Travestyny and ADP02 have accepted the following challenge:
The judges will be verifying based on the challenge on the topic/scope stated here, who is right:
"Can EPO have a threshold type test criteria associated to its testing process?"
Judges duties: They will decide whether it can or cannot: YES it can or NO it cannot.
YES it can - ADP02 wins
NO it cannot - Travestyny wins
The exclusions that we agreed to:
- ABP testing related to EPO testing.
- Other non-threshold susbtances.
Anything from the start of EPO testing which was circa 2000 up to today is part of the scope. That is, the scope is not based on today's testing of EPO only. Evidence from any period can be used to come to their conclusion (YES or NO). That is, if an EPO test was deemed as a threshold type test criteria at any 1 time during any period (eg. year 2000) (eg 2. year 2018) means a YES, it CAN, else it is a NO, it cannot. So it is not based on anything theoretically possible in
the future but whether there was evidence at one point in time.
Travestyny used a case based on 2003 events to conclude that EPO testing did not and cannot ever have any threshold type test associated to it. Travestyny said that anyone that has ever said that there was were wrong. Travestyny based it on his interpretation of the CAS panel's statement. This will be included later.
ADP02 disagrees with Travestyny's interpretation since ADP02 believes that there have been threshold type tests related to EPO testing.
Both sides will have the opportunity to explain their side on why they believe that there was a threshold type test criteria (ADP02) or why there never was a threshold type test criteria (Travestyny) related to EPO testing.

Is this my wife? The only person that may want me to not spend as much time as I do here, is sometimes my wife!
What I will do because I do not even care what my name is nor my points, is I will accept to this:
- All points are to be given to a 3rd party. Then given to the winner.
- Loser's account cannot be used by winner/loser any longer.
As stated, the challenge remains as per the topic/scope that I presented here.
I will definitely be bringing up all evidence that there have been threshold type test criteria. You will defend as you wish. The judges will decide if my evidence proved that there was at some point in time a threshold type test criteria or not.
If they agree that at one point in time there is evidence of a threshold type test criteria, then that means the judge is saying YES. A point for me.
NO, means that whatever evidence that I presented was not considered a threshold type test criteria. Then that would be a point for you.
The CAS panel was comparing threshold substance vs EPO testing to the athlete and stating that EPO is tested differently since the objective of the criteria is to verify if there is presence of EPO substance. BUT what I am stating is that you are WRONG in that a given single test criteria related to EPO CAN be considered to be a threshold type test criteria. When I say this (threshold test criteria), it is not necessarily about that case and I'm sure that you know that already. That is why I said all evidence is in scope. 2000-2018. You and I will need to defend all evidence.
BUT as stated, at the end of the day, YES either there was evidence of a threshold type test criteria at some point in time or NO there never was.
No posting on any deflections that is not within the topic/scope.
This includes you trying to change the topic/scope (same with me). This includes you bringing up about who really LIED/cheated (same with me). Any such posting will be an automatic DQ.
REFs:
We will get 2 refs. You decide on 1 and I will pick 1. The refs can DQ either 1 of us BUT I do not want to win by DQ. For me it is about the challenge. So the rule will be that if you get DQd, I have the final say on if you are DQ'd. You too. You decide if I get DQ'd.
The ref needs to use sound judgement based on the topic/scope. Either one of us goes off on a tangent and they can get DQ'd. I do not want any kangaroo court here. I will ask whoever I chose to just make sure that this stays on topic!
JUDGES:
As stated, the only acceptable way for a judge to vote for you or me is by way of their duties. They will also need to make a statement as how they came to their conclusions. If they are unsure or do not understand based on the evidence, the judge should NOT vote. Neither one of us should be getting votes if the judge is lost or does not actually analyze our evidence.
Let me know if you accept my previous post in its entirety. I do not want to hear nor do I care what you thought afterwards. As I said, this is NOT a "Got you game" by me. Maybe you are going to try to do that but like I said, you try, you will likely be DQ'd this time!
