Stop adding new cards button #323

What is the feature you want?
Hi! I'd like to suggest new feature. It could be somekind of button or mode.
One day when you have a lot of cards for repetition, for example after several 
of lost learning days, 
you have many cards to learn. During the learning process the amount of cards 
in stack goes lower and lower. And eventually there are only the forgotten 
cards in the stack. And you want to repeat them over and over again until you 
learn them by heart. But when you reach the amount of cards from preferences 
(in my case it 15 cards) you're going to get new cards from the database. And 
these new cards interrupt the learning process. 
So I'd like to have mode of "stop adding new cards". I can call it "by heart 
mode" :)) To have the possibility to learn only cards that you have already 
learned before. Or even only cards which are in repetition stack.

Thank you in advance

How important is it to you?

Do you think other people also want this feature and why?

The anymemo followed the principle that going over the difficult cards over and 
over again is not a efficient way of learning. AnyMemo tried to maximize the 
learning efficiency instead. So in the default algorithm, AnyMemo accepts you 
can forget at most 10 cards. So if you forget less than 10 cards, new cards 
will come in to fill the gap and you will have some interval between reviewing 
forgotten cards.
 If you think 10 cards is too many, you can actually customize it. In the last tab in the main screen, go to "Customize scheduling algorithm" and set "Learning queue size" to a number you want.
