Fuck Strangler: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" by Cat Torso http://www.besteveralbums.com/thechart.php?b=5109 may be an internet only movie. However, there is no listing for it or him in Wikipedia, IMDB or Amazon. May be bogus.

Bork, top job on those ones - thank you. Sometimes it's difficult, where somebody was born in one country, but grew up in another, to determine which nationality to use, hence Neneh Cherry and a few others.

Cat Torso, I think we'll just record as 'Unknown' unless some other knowledge comes to light to clear things up. Yes, it does look like an internet-only movie and it could be fake. The only reference to this album that I could find is here.

Good point RFNAPLES, on the Wikipedia entry, Frank Worth is credited, but on IMDb he isn't. I'm now wondering whether Wikipedia is correct as he's also not credited on this other (specialist soundtrack) website either: http://www.soundtrackcollector.com/cata...vieid=2289

[RFNAPLES]

It isn't the first time wikipedia has been wrong. See the IMDb site for a track listing http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0052077/soundtrack Worth isn't there either.

I was trying to look at the highest charting artists from certain countries, so I went to customize overall chart and changed country to 'only Australia'. The top 10 that was then generated looked weird to me (the overall rankings of the top 10 albums were, in this order: 55, 1287, 1412, 1505, 314, 1372, 4161, 1550, 266, 914). Not sure if I overlooked something or if something is wrong with this functionality, but I can't see where I went wrong. Tried again and choose Sweden (leaving everything else unchanged) and it only listed one album, although there are more albums from Sweden in the total database.

The custom chart currently works slightly differently to the rest of the site. By default, the rankings in this chart are based on how an album ranks in the 'professional lists' and exclude the rank points awarded in member charts.

For example, even though Wolfmother has an overall rank of 314 it ranks lower in the custom chart because it was only awarded 71 points from professional lists.

There was only one Swedish album in the professional lists and this is why you are seeing just that one one listed. (All of the other Swedish albums oin this site have been added by site members.)

It is a bit confusing that the custom chart works in this way and perhaps we should change it to be consistent with the rest of the site.

[Bork]

Ah, that explains it. I would think that it is better to use the same ranking system on the customised charts. That is just an opinion, but I can't see why anyone would want to see how albums were charted on average on just the published charts.

[albummaster]

I agree, we'll change it as part of the next site update. We've had some members in the past that were keen on viewing the performance in the professional lists, but now that the site has grown, this has become a bit redundant.

[RFNAPLES]

Give the members a choice with a radio button or box. (Include or Exclude member charts). Do we actually have nationality data on all albums?

There is a choice to exclude member charts already, so it is possible to have that functionality if wanted.

[albummaster]

yes, there's nationality data on all albums now. This was manually updated, so there may be a few errors (but these should be squished over time).

The include/exclude member charts option probably doesn't work in the way that you expect. It just acts as a filter, so if you wanted to see the top-ranked albums in the professional lists you could choose to only include an album if it *also* appears in x or more member charts (rather than affecting the total rank score, the include/exclude option just disables this filter). The original point of this feature was to be able to show albums that were not just popular with critics, but were also popular with site members.
