hi beeant,
was wondering if you ever considered to implement some kind of spaced repetition system into the site.
Really love the way practice works and keeps my motivation up with the exp-system and the polished interface. Just the selection of the items irritates me sometimes.
For example: I ecountered 受付 about 40 times, while there are still items that I saw only 1-2 times. Quite often I also get the same item just a few seconds after I already answered it correctly.
I think the efficiency of learning could be improved a lot by even a simple SRS-Method.
Cheers

@Codewolke,
Some users have suggested the same, but I actually think that the site have spaced repetition system in JCJP's own-way through oblivion list and weak list. But from getting some complains about over repetition to the same vocabulary and kanji, I see that there is a need to review the algorithm of choosing more relevant and personalized questions for Practice.
I did some Googling on SRS method about years ago, and would like to study it more and implement or improve and implement it to JCJP. It is interesting, but I think I need more concrete understanding to the SRS method.
As for now, I just did a quick review to the JCJP repetition algorithm, In one of the randomized question fetching query, I found that there is a query that fetches the "least-encountered" question. So I think that this is the source of the problem that caused over-repetition. To fix this problem, I just modified it to get "the least-encountered that you encountered last before yesterday".
I just deployed it, and let's see if this solved the over-repetition problem. Please let me know if you still have this problem.
Thank You! :)
I'm very happy to hear about this being looked into. This will be fun to test. ^^- Yes, I've been trying to isolate myself in my room again recently lol. Aiming to be more productive and get things done. So I've been watching the feeds more regularly. and I think I will browse for more old issues in old posts.
So as for this problem, I've been testing it, but for some reason semi-over-repetition still occur on my side. It's kind of difficult to test for me because I got a lot of oblivion list. So I mostly got oblivion list on the practice. I just made another change to get "least encountered that you encountered last before last week". This query is like assuming that you might forget after a week. 
Thank you for this quick change in your algorithm.
I would like to elaborate some more on the difference/advantage of an srs and some other suggestions I have. I'm going to add a new thread here in the forum as the JCJP-Trello page seems not to be in frequent use anymore.- I wondered if any random JCJP users ever stumbled across the Trello page. ^^
- Ya, how did you know about JCJP trello page? haha
