hello, i’d like to see a reschedule function that lets us review ahead of time. there’s lots of occasions where i have time, and lots where i’m busy for hours and reviews pop up. if you think about it, SRS is made for efficiency. spreading the reviews out as much as possible reduces workload and …

I jokingly suggested a user script for this once: https://community.wanikani.com/t/user-script-concept-wk-time-travel/32850?u=ctmf But seriously, I think it’s only a problem really for the “racers” who are worried about level-up speed. It would be nice if the intervals had a little random variatio…

[image] ctmf: I think it’s only a problem really for the “racers” Nope, we are also talking about it on the kitsun forum, and racing isn’t a thing there. And I think racers would only care about time critical reviews, which isn’t the case here. A day or two isn’t going to do much one way or…

it’s actually the opposite of racing: the intervals are not set up for optimal retention effectiveness, but for efficiency. if you do them right on time, you save time and work less hard, because you’ll see them less. it’s the same misunderstanding people have when they think “do your best to avoid…

Couldn’t you just install the self-study script, study all of them early, then also do the actual reviews late? I mean I’m not saying it’s a bad idea.

that kind of defeats the purpose of doing an SRS, doesn’t it? we do this here to minimize our workload. if i review ahead of time, say a day earlier, future reviews won’t suffer. if we do it twice every time, we do double work. that won’t work as well as simple rescheduling.

This is not the exact same idea but it does somewhat relate to the idea of reviewing earlier than in the current system. Sorry if I’m inadvertently hijacking a thread - if I should post this as a separate topic let me know. I would prefer it if the intervals, once they reach a day or longer (or so…

I think the scatter percentage option that Kitsun has is a good way to solve this problem. If stuff shows up in your review queue all the time, there’s less pressure to do everything the exact moment it shows up. Honestly, iKnow’s approach is best. It simultaneously adds randomness to the intervals…

[image] seanblue: Honestly, iKnow’s approach is best. It simultaneously adds randomness to the intervals and prioritizes items that are more overdue relative to their interval. So if it’s been 15 minutes since a review showed up for an item whose interval was 4 hours, it will give you that revie…

I’d be happy just seeing a chart of when, and how many reviews are going to pop up over say the next 24 hours. Maybe there’s a way of doing that and I’m just not aware of it. I do try to make things work with my schedule, but “next review in ~3 hours” might be 2 reviews, or it might be 20! If I cou…
