Really? Even if Tom had graded his respons 0 or 1, next repetition would still be > 19? > Pressing 2 will result > however in an interval which grows much less that pressing 5. > I use the browser every now and then to get an idea of what cards give me the the most recalling problems (sort by "Easiness"). Some of the "difficult" cards I then realise it is better to wait with (until my basic understading is better). I change their tag and simply do not include theem in my daily rep for a while. If however it is really important to learn a "difficult" card, I modify the card and/ or create supplemenentary cards related to the knowledge area that gives me problems An idea: It would be really nice to have an explanation of the terms used: Is "grade" the last grade given?, What are "Easiness"/ "acquisition reps" etc Henrik > > Peter > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
