Tone errors

阿福   November 11th, 2009 3:14a.m.

I make many accidental errors in tones, and my practice queue ends up filling up with tone practice.

Is there any way to tell Skritter that I really *do* know the tone of a character?

Simply click the "correct" button (check-mark with an x) and you can over-ride accidental errors when you make them.

I've also find that if you hit the proper tone it marks it correct on the frontend. I sometimes get the opposite problem, reflexively hitting the right tone after I got it wrong.

2shanghai - thanks -- amazing how I missed that...

gacorley - I wasn't sure how the scheduler counted hitting the correct tone after the wrong one. It seemed to me that Skritter was counting the mistake.

Nah, if you hit the proper tone it switches it to correct--you can tell by the color of the border, the glow, and the state of the correct button. Any time you hit the next button, it will submit the prompt with the score reflected by those indicators.
