It's about 5051892028462 (UK)

I bought it last week, corrected the running time, added the child profiles, added better cover scans.

It was only later (after I uploaded my collection and checked the pending changes again) that I noticed that GreyHulk had already contributed the child profile Ids.

So I thought 'Oh well, his contrib is going through and after that my running time and covers will be accepted, too'.

His child profile contrib went through all right. My contrib is still pending.

But here's the glitch.

As per contrib evaluation screen only the images are pending. The child id data is gone (no suprise there) but so is the running time data!

And I just compared online and offline data, the running time is actually different.

Now there is the possibility that I simply forgot to set the checkbox. But none of the six voters said anything about it even though I documented the running time change precisely.

Not sure what's going on there, DJD. Your contributions for all five discs are showing up fine at my end, they're just not approved yet. Your Running Time's are all present with no problems (the profile's in question currently show a Running Time of '0' for each disc which are pending being replaced by your contribution).

Oh, and the Disc IDs were already online, I just linked them to the parent profile.

Have you tried a database repair? I've had to repair a lot lately because of online contribution problems.

Your cover images are showing fine at this end with the following Running Time additions...
Disc 1 - 206
Disc 2 - 206
Disc 3 - 206 (& 'Produced' year -> 2011)
Disc 4 - 206
Disc 5 - 165

@Karsten

I've been wondering the same thing. I recently voted on Secret Diary of a Call Girl: Season 4 (UK Profile) yet all I see up for voting is the Overview yet other voters are seeing more, I have checked my web cache tried a different browser, even tried two different computers. Yet still only see the Overview.

All within the last few days!

@GreyHulk
And yes I even tried a DB Repair had no effect.

I meant the contribution of the parent profile where you added the links to the children.

Grey, can you humour me and re-vote for that contrib and tell me what data you see?

Perhaps something to do with the 3.8 overhaul.

Just checked for your contrib:

The notes state that there is a change for Running Time, but it doesn't appear on the comparison screen.

Your scans look great BTW, but seem to be slightly over-cropped on the right side (At least if compared to the existing).
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Even after re-voting, I'm seeing this for each disc (with the addition of the 'Produced' year change for disc 3)



It seems some of us are seeing the changes and others aren't.

I'd wait until it's approved and see what happens then...

@ Greyhulk: It seems you are checking for one of the child profiles.
The problem is ocuring on the parent (EAN: 5051892028462)
Total Running Time is supposed to be something in the 900's
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

No matter, the contribution was accepted. Now I've re-contributed the running time.

Yes, I seem to have misunderstood. Voted.
