This is amazing, is there a way we can have spaced repetition built in like Anki?

Interesting request. I looked a bit into it and see Anki let’s you rate each question and that determines the interval before it is repeated. Is that what you’re envisioning?

Thank you for your submissions everyone! Here is the full list of submissions:

^ Grist employees and their families are not eligible to win, no matter how epic their decks. We have, conveniently enough, exactly three eligible contestants, @Chris_Scott1 , @Leonard_Gallion and @Olha_Fokanova . The Grist Thermos has foregone the poll and decided its own fate. The thermos is yours! :tada:

Vote!

But we would still like to have a poll in the spirit of friendly competition. Which are your top three decks? Contestants may vote in the poll, and may cast a vote for themselves, especially if their deck is about the hero formerly know as Mr. Needlemouse.

  • Multiplication Table
  • Marketing Tips
  • Grist Quiz
  • Sonic the Hedgehog
