So painful when you get a review wrong on a kanji because of a typo and it delays your level up by a day

Yeah, that’s painful. There are userscripts to combat this. Just make sure to not abuse them! :durtle_noice:

This is an awesome idea!

Looking forward to getting to at least 30 by the end of the year. I’m past halfway; how hard can it be? :smiling_face_with_tear:

Oh! Well look at me sounding kinda dumb.

Congrats, look at you crushing it!

Just came back from a 6 month hiatus and ready to rock. See you guys at 30.
がんばって!!

I just started and I found this message super helpful! I have been feeling a combo of things going to slow but also being overwhelmed and it’s good to keep in mind that a “slow” but steady pace is the way to really learn permanently :smile:

Hi! I’m brand new and would love to join but don’t quite understand how wikis work yet. Is this being put in manually or is there a way to tie it to our profile so the stats update automatically? Thank you!!

You put it in manually (and update the info manually) by clicking this button:

Explanation

and pasting in this information:

here, like so:

I hope this helps:)

Thank you so much!! This looks easier than I thought it would be :slight_smile: How frequently do people come back and update these, or is it only at official checkpoints?

I intend to do it every time I level up, but it’s up to each person to decide obviously. I can’t tell you how often others will do it since we’ve just started the race:)

I’m down, so sign me up

かかってこいや!I’ll give it my best shot!!

totally not a wannabe shounen protagonist

Sounds like fun!

Second level gained since starting the race! :racing_car:

I feel so motivated, just like when I attended my first japanese class back at university (18 or so years ago :rofl:), learning the kana… And from my perspective at that time reading the Kanji was a distant, almost impossible dream.

Maybe I’m not the one to talk being only a newcomer but I just wanted to share this feeling.

Keep the fire burning guys! :fire::fire::fire:

Can definitely relate, just took my first official Japanese class this past semester. For once my weeb knowledge was put to good use :sweat_smile:

I can’t wait for a few months to pass so we can see people starting to get competitive with eachother. :crabigator:

No worries I did it for you a few days back lol

After 34 days on level 4, I made it to level 5 a few days ago!!

It’s time to speed this up… (hopefully) :sweat_smile:
