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:

legacy.skritter.cn

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.

"You have studied 5 minutes",..

Can I turn that off? It distracts me. There is already a timer.

I agree with esther, I rather would prefer not to have it. Already look at the clock often enough when practicing.

Lyons   January 23rd, 2010 4:48a.m.

I agree too.

I really like it

Oops, those messages are not supposed to play yet until I add a preference for them (and their accompanying sounds). I'll either get the preference in or turn them off today.

But when they are ready, we will still need a lot of feedback on what's good and what's not from those people who do want to use the sound effects.

I love them so much! Please don't take them out!

starwars effects, or weakest link

I saw these today as well. What I could really use is a message saying "You have studied for two hours straight. Please take a break. Get up, go outside, watch some television, read a book, whatever. Anything but Skritter."

I am getting just a little too addicted to Skritter...

hehe klutz

that sounds a bit like the wii fit program:)

We're planning all sorts of messages, some of them like that--but you'll have to study for X hours in a day in order to hear what they are. Hmm!

(They're not in yet so no use in curiously overpracticing yet.)
