Fastest/best pipcounting method?

In Response To: Fastest/best pipcounting method? (Timothy Chow)

The only person other than myself I've known to actively keep a running pip count is Mochy. I think most people find it cumbersome and a mental drain. For me personally it's a simple +/- system, like counting cards in blackjack.

Even if I am keeping a running count if there is a position where I need a pipcount there's no reason not to recount it using another standard method. It's like cubes in racing positions, if you have more than one method for evaluating the cube action (Keith Count, Trice Count, EPC, etc...) there's no reason not to use more than one to make sure they agree. The only time we wouldn't do this is if time was a concern.
