Longtime Mnemosyne user here.

I've grown a bit frustrated with the program as I continue to pile up more "Not Memorized" cards as the algorithm will set me to view the card in 2 or 3 days, and by then I've forgotten the information on the card. Is there anyway to make it so I see all those "recently memorized" cards on the next day? Because I know I'm going to forget them if I don't review them. And I have a tough time going through all of them manually the day before since I have well over 22,000 now. I'd ideally like to space the intervals as close together as I feel necessary. 1 day, 3 days, 6 days , 12 days and have it escalate a little more slowly. If there was a feature to edit it, like there is in Anki, that would be  I don't want to use the Cram Scheduler because that will go through all my cards which I'm not super interested in doing. I'm more concerned with just the ones that I'd like to see the next day, but end up seeing in two or three days. 

Regards,
Mike Etzkorn

Mike, I of course don't know how you use Mnemosyne, so please forgive me if my suggestions are not relevant. But this comes to mind:

What grade do you generally give a new card when you first "learn" it? If 4 or 5, you might try 2 instead. Then on subsequent tests of the same card, continue to give it a grade of 2 until you actually know it. Then give it gradually higher grades as you find you are remembering it even better. You'll know you are grading it too low when it appears too frequently or you feel it is now too easy.

The difficulty you are experiencing could also come from learning too many new cards at once, or if the form of the questions is too complex (e.g. expecting too much information as an answer). But I suspect you have already controlled for such factors.

Everything from not memorized get's a "2" after I memorize it. I want to see all my recently memorized cards as soon as possible. Because after two or three days I will forget the card, so I need to be reviewing it more often as soon as I've originally memorized it. I don't like that I have to go relearn a ton of cards, that would've stayed remembered had Mnemosyne put them in my schedule.

Hi,

 

It’s rare that recently memorised cards with a grade of 2 will only show up in 3 days, most of them show up the next day or the day after that. If you feel like you’re not able to recally the card even after a very small number of days, perhaps you should keep the cards in grade 0/1 a bit longer, and only grade them 2 if you’re confident that you’ll remember them I a few days.

 

Cheers,

 

Peter

You can make new cards in Anki and `Learn` them the way you need, even with `Intra-day intervals`;
at certain point, you can import the cards to Mnemosyne, with Scheduling info.
