Another point to think about (which I'm living), when you get that 2042nd kanji in the first box, you still have to get them ALL into the 4th box.  No failed kanji and no expired kanji.

As far as RTK1 is concerned, I've got 1936 cards there so far, although 57 of them are orange.

Anyone have over 2000 in there yet?

I was well on my way to having 2000 green cards in the last pile.  I was up to about 1990, but then I went to visit home for two weeks, the orange cards started piling up, and they've been piling up ever since.  I now have 2015 cards in the last pile [606 orange, 1409 green].

Well, my RTK1s are all in stack 4 and green now. But then I've been reviewing only (I originally learnt them twelve years ago).

Still, it gave me a sense of accomplishment when the last one in stack 4 turned green (of course a few continue to revert to orange every day).

Reviewing RTK3 is taking a bit more time & effort.

How many reviews do you have to do each day, with almost all kanji in the last stack? Is it 3000/240=12.5 (with 240 being the maximum interval - i think...) is there a lot of variation?

It does average around 12 a day overall. In my case I've had months averaging 2 or 3 a day, and others with 20 to 30.

Presumably it depends on how you added the cards initially and on the proportion of fails. I added the cards very quickly, so I guess that's why they're coming back in blocks.
