I’m finally starting to vaguely remember the items I keep missing week after week well enough that I was able to guess a lot of them during this week’s leech review, so accuracy is way up. Now I just have to wait for the next set of dumb coin flips and impossible-to-remember words that I’ll miss week after week going forward!

For some reason, the three review sessions I did in the morning all went well and the three in the afternoon all went terribly. It’s funny how that works sometimes.

After an unusual good start today, I decided to go for broke and see if I could get my review count under 4k for the first time and hit 500 reviews in one day for the first time, and while it did take a lot of hard work, I managed to do both.
My review count hit a new record low of 3974, smashing the previous record of 4284 set on November 21st. I also did 545 reviews in one day today, smashing the previous record of 456 set on September 19th.
But wait, there’s more! I also hit one other notable milestone today. On December 3rd, my +30 day review count (aka “reviews in the next month”) peaked at 5114 before I began the current effort to get it below 5000. It took a long time because the +30 day review count can only be lowered by passing Enlightened and Burn reviews, and it also sometimes goes up. But over the last couple weeks, I burned 100 items and enlightened 105 items, thus finally bringing my +30 review count below 5000 for the first time today!

I tried to press on and keep doing more and more reviews despite terrible accuracy because I wanted to get under 4100 today, but I was eventually forced to give up just short of that goal.

I was planning to do a manual Leech Review session this morning like usual every week, but for some reason, the WK api was returning errors to my script, so I had to skip it this week.

I did some digging into the WK API error problem today, and the API appears to be broken when a updated_after query results in multiple pages of results. For those not familiar with the API, it has pagination, which means that if a query results in 1000 or fewer results, it just returns them normally. However, if there are more than 1000 results, the API just returns the first 1000, plus a link to the next “page” of results to get more.
I only use the custom leech review script I wrote once a week (every Saturday morning), and it of course it has to update its local review database each time by doing an updated_after query for reviews since the previous week. However, I did a lot more reviews than usual last week and must have hit 1000 reviews in one week for the first time, causing multiple pages of results to be returned, which broke the API.
If this is correct, than the API was probably always broken, and it’s just that last week was the first time I actually did enough reviews to run into this bug. Imagine doing so many reviews you break Wanikani!
There have been some times I was forced to skip a week or two of leech reviews due to vacation, but in those cases, I was also doing negligible reviews for the same reason, so I probably never hit 1000 even after a two or three week gap in those cases.

As someone who just reset because he had ~1000 reviews stacked up, you’re completely nuts man, good luck lmao

This week’s leech review was a miserable slog. It took me 55 minutes to get through them all, and I missed a ton. I was sorely tempted to just give up halfway through.
This is probably because I had to skip last week due to the WK API being broken, so there was a two week gap, which meant that a) there were more leeches to review and b) I’d forgotten more of the items from last time. It doesn’t help that I haven’t been doing well at WK lately.
