So I’ve had a few starts and stops since joining Wanikani a good few years ago, but everytime I remembered to put vacation mode on first… except for last time.
My poor level-up average is going to be destroyed as soon as I level up
I didn’t want to restart again, so I returned to over 1500 reviews… and over 3 days I’ve managed to clear the pile. Luckily I still remembered a good amount, so I was able to burn 440 of them. But never again!
Don’t worry about your level up average. Wkstats looks at the mode (your typical level up time) rather than a straight mathematical average.
I have 1383 days on level 9 when I stopped 4 years ago (no vacation mode too), but wkstats says my typical level up is 7 days.
My error rate is what took a big hit when I came back to the review pile last year. But amassing all those errors was probably the best thing for me. I originally was a little too worried about making mistakes and I hated seeing that error rate go up. Now I embrace the errors since it just shows me what I need to focus on.
Regardless, at the end of it all, stats don’t mean 幺.
Now you can have the goal of “How low can I bring my average time per level before I hit level 60” sounds pretty fun to me, and a unique challenge to you.
