Re: [O] Schedule more roughly

I tried the random scatter. This is a really good method for
procrastination! I ended up with the method you said. I schedule those
things now on the beginning of the week or month (or year?) and maybe add a
special tag or todo keyword.

The habits method looks nice! I dont know if I can tweak the visibility of
those tasks in my agenda? I dont want to display those tasks on my agenda
so I would need to filter them out using its own keyword?

 month I could always set a more accurate timestamp then. Any idea? I tried
 to remove the day number in a timestamp but this would destroy the
 timestamp.


 Take a look at habits.  It has something similar IE you can set a due date
 for a habit to be completed for say at least 3 days, but not more than 5
 days.
 Not exactly what you are looking for but might be adaptable.

I don't think there's anything built-in that will do this -- I'd
recommend just rescheduling everything to Monday morning next week, and
then do finer-grained rescheduling on the Monday.

You might be amused to try the random scatter rescheduling option:
mark the relevant todos, B for bulk action, then S to shotgun them
over the next N days.
