Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

"Nicki, you have 180002 items ready to review."

Wahh! Actually that was from the home page, the actual practice page says 78.

lol

I don't have 180002 but I think I have quite a lot to review, especially if I miss one day (about 250, which is counter productive IMO)

Or maybe it's just a clever game of our Skritter programmers. Perhaps they think you aren't being challenged enough with learning all those words and they want you to find and apply a frequently changing algorithm to determine how many characters you still need to review :)

It looks like there's a specific error case that can cause the number of items to do to return 9001 (which is over 9000). So if you got 2 of those, then you'd have 18,002 (but not 180,002).

Can't figure out why the error happened, though!

There is actually one user who has done over 180,002 reviews. So yeah, maybe the system is offering a challenge!

Yeah, I figure it was some kind of bug, but I can't get it to repeat. Which I guess is a good thing...not for figuring out what went wrong and fixing it though. Not a big deal, especially since it isn't happening now, but it sure made me do a double take!
