Ideas, Questions, Problems or Praise?
Posted on January 28, 2010
You will notice a black rectangle on the right side of your web browser labeled 'Feedback'. That's a link to a new tool that we're using to allow people to submit ideas for new features, to ask questions about how to use the website, or to report problems. Since we now have thousands of registered users, it has become harder for us to answer everyone's questions and help new users get started. Our hope is that by creating a repository for new ideas and questions on the usage of the website, it will allow the community to help out (and will allow us to get back to the top of the leaderboard ... just kidding).
If any of you would like to volunteer to help answer the questions that people have, let us know and we can add you as an 'employee'. Either way, I think anyone can jump in and help out.
We'd also love people to propose new ideas for Memverse and to vote on the ideas that other people have submitted as that will help us prioritize what we work on. So just click on the 'Feedback' button on the right and try it out.

I was doing my daily memorization practice and on some verses I couldn't get feedback. Is this something new? Also, it would tell me when I had it right, but two verses later it went back to giving feedback. Is there a system for this or is it random?

Actually, that is a new feature which was supposed to have been optional but accidentally get rolled out to everyone. We're still working on it so it should be sorted out soon.

A little glitch: on my progress report, the suggested memorization time (the line graph) coordinates with the same scale as the bars [memorized/learning] so instead of 27 minutes, it shows 62 when I mouse over it. I see the scale numbers on the right, and maybe that's how you solved that problem, but I just wanted to put a bug in your ear.
Thank you so much, Andy, for putting this whole website together, and for putting so much time into it for us!
1 Thessalonians 5:12-14 ~~ "We ask you, brothers, to respect those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you, and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves. And we urge you, brothers, admonish the idle, encourage the faint-hearted, help the weak, be patient with them all."

Yep - the graphing package that I'm using doesn't seem to properly associate the mouse-over pop-ups with the correct axis. We might have to change to a new graphing package in the future; the one we're using is Flash-based and if Apple has their way Flash will go the way of VHS tapes.

ANOTHER suggestion. . . I'll be surprised if you're not annoyed yet, Andy!! I keep making the same mistake over and over on the accuracy test, and I can't fix or remember it because by the time I get to the end, I forget exactly what I had typed. So if you could work it out so that it shows your mistake right after you hit submit, that would be awesome.
Thanks AGAIN,
River

River, I would suggest making sure everything is spelled perfectly in your accuracy tests. My browser has a built in spell-checker, but if you don't have one I would recommend typing it in a program (such as Microsoft Word) that will check your spelling, and the pasting it to memverse. Also, if you're memorizing from the KJV, many words are spelled differently than they are today. The word "show" is spelled "shew", "favor" is spelled "favour", etc. If you forget to change those things it will be considered incorrect.

I'd be glad to help answer the questions in the feedback section.

Ok, thanks a ton! I hadn't done that yet.

River - I'm planning to add some better feedback for the accuracy test. Just need to find the time :)

speaking of "finding the time", Andy, we'd love (I'm sure I'm not the only one! :)) to see more pics of that little Rivonia and hear a little "feedback" on her! :D :)

@ Laurel: Who is this Rivonia person?
Ooooooo...a MemVerse personal messager would be REALLY helpful right now...

I'm not completely sure Zach... I think (from Laurel's post) that she might be Andy's daughter (???). I thought that there had been a post back in the spring about her...but I can't find it anymore...
River La Belle says:

Yes, she should be about 6 months old now. I was just wondering, since he had the post waiting as a draft in the saved section that only approved bloggers can see. :P And you are right, Josiah, Andy did take it down.

OK. that's good to know. ;)

I was just doing a memorize session and I put in the verse, but the feedback just showed dots. Obviously I backed up and tried again. It still had dots, so I flipped over the flashcard and I was absolutely correct! Why did it say I was wrong? :(
Thank you for any help you can give.
Josiah DeGraaf says:

Ethan--I've had this problem before. Anytime that your computer's internet is going slowly/isn't working, only dots show up on the flashcard. It might happen some other times, but if so I believe it is only a momentary glitch in the program's software and isn't a long-term problem.
