Killhouse counter bug
7 years ago
Durham, England

I've lost the footage for this, but I just remembered that this happened a while back. I was trying to run the killhouse, but the timer bugged out at the end of the run. I must have hit the end trigger at the same time as it hit 9:00s, because it didn't change from 8s to 9s, and showed 8s on the wall.

Obviously this is a 9s time, but according to the timer it was 8s. Which one would it be ruled as if this were to happen again?

As in 8:00 while it was going to be 9:00? In that case you rather should submit the correct(ed) time. Usually though, when there is such rollback in the runner's favor we keep it as is, for example if the timer stopped at 9:30 then switched to 9:15 and updated the PB screen to be 9:15 as well. Anyway real time can vouch for the actual value of the run.

Sorry to bump this, but I just found the footage. Here's the bug:

Really interesting bug, I guess the second timer isn't updated at the same frame as the hundredths one. The killhouse timer is very glitchy in general, usually there are discrepancies between it and the PB time.

What did the PB timer display afterwards? 8;88 as it's supposed to be if it was a 9,00 time or did it update to match the glitch 8;00 time? EDIT: I'm an idiot, it's the first option; watched the beginning of the vid. So yeah, consider it a 9;00 time.
