I can certainly see you rated heavily red. I’d suspect that many S.American men do.
I felt that the “color test” results were highly accurate [for me] – except that I’m not a good listener ( 50 % white). In the end , I’d guess that a Whole lot of our personalty traits Can be traced back to our childhoods / upbringing / cultures.
I saw my ex-wifes personality entirely laid out w/ the “blue” outline !
now , I understand our divorce, 11 years ago !

In the end , calling this test a “Hoax” is disingenuous , at best. A Big Time Red like you isn’t going to answer [honestly] you childhood / youth questions !

Sorry , Fernando , I wouldn’t agree w/ you , irregardless of the # of degrees behind your name. I’m impressed w/ Hartman’s test !

Best ;

its right about time for making the brand behind all their niche websites known. It always happens, a company gets big, no one knows who behind it, they get jealous then release a product under the actual company name. nice move.

I haven’t gone through the entire Match signup process in a while, but IIRC it’s one of the shorter ones out there. In fact, like it or not, 20 minutes is probably the norm for most sites unless you cut-and-paste essays, not including taking any sort of a test.

Sites are slowly getting better at spreading out questions, many create a basic profile then ask you to complete it after the initial signup process. Even Spark.com does this. We’re just impatient.

This is exactly why I like Facebook connect. Pull your personal data from FB like Gelato or Thread, process goes much quicker. Dating sites will figure this out over time and I predict less people dropping out of the signup process for sites which use FB Connect.

Tom is right. The sign up process of websites like match.com just takes too long. Some questions should be optional or at least not required to complete during the sign up. I tried and it took me 20 minutes. I believe someone would give up halfway.

While the Color Code test was not used in AmericanSingles.com and Date.com, Spark Networks does have something similar on their Minglematch dating sites.

I have heard from others that the signup process which asks only a few question each page actually have a lower drop out rate than those who ask all the questions on one or two pages. By adding the Personality test to this process though, I think Spark has made the signup process to long.
