Data from the TESS mission will be used to discover hundreds of small planetsamenable to radial velocity (RV) followup. Often, RV observations are obtaineduntil a particular fractional precision on the inferred mass is achieved. Ishow that when the decision to stop collecting RV observations depends on themass inferred from already-collected data, this will bias mass measurementsupward, particularly when the fixed length of RV observing campaigns isconsidered. I suggest that observing teams should determine their observingstrategy for each star before any data are collected, and all stopping criteriashould not directly depend on the inferred mass. Observing teams shouldexplicitly publish both their criteria for observing targets and deciding toend their observations, as well as their mass non-detections to avoidintroducing biases into the masses---and thus inferences on the densities,compositions, and atmospheres---of transiting planets.
