The test can be taken here.

My results:

12 Blue
10 Gold
8 Orange
6 GR

Used to be 3....

Now more of a 2 teetering to 1.

I think that recent changes to the program have made being a 3 very hard.

In an ideal world (of my choosing!!!    ) I would revert back to profiles being 100% AS CREDITED for the purposes of the online db.

Then make Credited As a totally local thing. That would then result in no more endless discussions on common name, no more CLT is inaccurate discussions.

Make the online the true 'starting point'. The canvas that the rest of us can work from.

I want the db to be accurate - but wherever possible I do NOT vote based on my interpretation of the rules. If there is an element of doubt I always vote neutral.
There have been too many examples of users voting NO to changes only to discover that they were totally wrong later.

Test results:
Gold 13
Blue 11
Orange 9
Green 3

Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to say, "as credited on disc". (Tried to write that yesterday but didn't succeed.)  Life was so much simpler then, if I remember well (but not sure) there were not so much problems as nowadays.

Interesting test

Blue: 14

I agree 100% and have said so. The linking is primarily a local issue, one in which we can SHARE data, and IF it were based on Simple Association instead of some bizarre system which is dependent on user input it would function even better locally. We coukld create and share the name links but the actual processing of the data would be purely local. For example let's try a hypothetical.

Instead of Robin Wright Penn=Robin Wright AND Robin Penn

The system would record Robin Wright Penn=Robin Wright=Robin Penn, there is NO priority name.

So let's say in a given collection a user has Robin Wright Penn (5), Robin Wright (2) and Robin Penn (1), since the link has been established no matter which of the three names the user searched on he would get the same list of 8 films. He could have the ability to prioritize his list, say he searched on Robin Penn, that would be the first title listed, he could then prioritize based on the count of the other variants in either ascending or descending form. This eliminates the CLT and the establishment of a Common Name based on the faulty model of user input and allows users to share the data for the linking at which point the linking becomes specific to HIS/Her collection instead of based on the Online collection.

I might have Robin Wright (6), Robin Wright Penn (4) and Robin Penn (2). It is irrelevant to me how many RWs, RWPs or RPs are in the Online, what I want the linking to do is tell me what I have in MY collection. Now if Ken were to incorporate a name search in the Online then it MIGHT be interestin to see be able to see overall results, for films I may have overlooked in my collection and wish to add, but that is a different function from the current CLT results.
