Great Job onfire!!!!

thx for earlier :)

Congratulations, onfire247! 👍🏽

Thanks! I'd like to say I'm just that accurate on every verse, but I had to be strategic about it. I am learning Psalm 91, and I have it to the point where it asks for the whole chapter. What I did is type out the first 15 verses perfectly, and then go back to the dashboard. When you go back to review Psalm 91, it asks you to start from the beginning. So I just repeated those 15 verses again, repeating until I got the badge. You still have to be perfect on those verses, but doing verses I know well perfectly 64 times is much easier than trying to do it across 500+ random verses which include new ones. Getting 64, 128, or 256 in a row without planning the badges out is just not possible for me because new verses or silly mistakes end up messing up my streak.

I'm secretly hoping that one day they'll retool this badge entirely and replace it with "user got x number of verses correct at 100%." So like Ace 1 = 1 verse perfectly. Ace 2 = 100 verses perfectly (not in a row). Ace 3 = 300. Ace 4 = 500. Ace 5 = 1,000. Ace 6 = 5,000. Ace 7 = 10,000. Ace 8 = 20,000. Ace 9 = 50,000. Ace 10 = 100,000. If you figure 100 reviews a day, that would take about three years to get Ace 10 if you're at 90% overall accuracy.

Setup like this there would be less stress with this badge, and less anger when you make a silly mistake that ruins your streak. It rewards accuracy over time rather than accuracy in a row - which would seem to be the goal of bible memorization. A setup like I've described would push me for further reviews. The Ace badge as it stands now does not, sadly.

I'd just like to add that when I make these suggestions, I am in no way complaining about the site. I love this website. I'm so thankful to spooky for finally providing me a tool that encourages me to memorize. I think of this website as ice cream. Sure, the ice cream might taste a bit better with nuts or chocolate sauce on it, but even without addons, the ice cream is still great!
