Slippage Testimony

Emerged when a league director discovered that VCRs with worn pinch rollers produced consistent slippage patterns that functioned as attendance fingerprints - the more a player showed up, the more their unique mechanical signature accumulated in the playback desync, transforming equipment failure into irrefutable proof-of-presence across all 16 movie simulations.

Manifests as progressive audio/video desynchronization that worsens with each viewing, creating timing gaps that function as attendance timestamps. Leaves unique mechanical signatures in magnetic tape substrate - the more frequently a player attends, the more distinctive their slippage pattern becomes. Produces audible friction testimony during playback, converting mechanical wear into sonic proof that the tape physically passed through the machine. Each playback adds microseconds of additional slippage, making the testimony self-reinforcing and creating cumulative evidence that spans entire simulation seasons.

Acts as the counter-authority to performance-based judgment, proving that consistent physical presence in the recording mechanism outweighs any single brilliant throw. Validates attendance through accumulated equipment wear, making mechanical degradation the Chaintrix's most honest witness across all 16 movie simulations.
