Same here, I just reviewed 19 items from a course, only to find that no points have been awarded for the streak (not sure about my total) and that I have, again, 19 items to review.

does not matter what i’m reviewing
- the old infuriating bugs are there (commas, hyphens etc)
- it’s a hamster wheel, again and again… review simply does not update, the items are there (also no points, so, no chance for points farming on the web version
) - therefore, the number of items to be reviewed in increasing … and it is growing, and growing, and growing…

Seriously . . .I would have expected maybe some bugs to be fixed after the website went down, but it was wishful thinking. Additionally, they broke the review . . .With the commas/parenthesis issue as well as the review not working issue the site is seriously unusable now. Do you need a programmer? I will help for free on weekends. Because this is getting out of control. I have used this site religiously for 9 months, so it has become a core part of my language study routine. Please tell me Memrise programming team that you have a version-control system for your software builds? If not, I can recommend one.
For me, it’s causing the same review session to be repeated over and over. And, having just tried learning some new stuff, I’m seeing the same thing there.
(Running on PC/Windows 7, Chrome).
So, I’m switching to learning from a CD course today. Hopefully, tomorrow Memrise will be “business as usual”. I actually think that Memrise is remarkably reliable for a free service - as I rarely run into problems.

I’m pretty sure they just edit the files directly on the web server.
Using whoever they can grab off the street…
Only explanation I can think of.

it is not the first time problem. Last time it was fixed relatively quick.
<< Attention!
We’re experiencing some server issues that mean that progress isn’t being
saved. We are working to fix this and will have it sorted out ASAP. Apologies
for the inconvenience.>>
Thanks for this notice. Good luck.
I do hope I will not lose my “Learning Streaks” as these are
keeping me going

yeah, nice to see that they follow one of my suggestions… they did not replace the traveling sun, but at least a message

It is true that it really helps to see some kind of reaction from the team, but it is still pretty frustrating to have to cope with these problems once again. Not being able to use the site properly although I’m paying to do so, is sure no good at all… And even though I know I’m doing this to learn something new (proof: I’m reviewing although I know I won’t get any points ^_^), I notice I’m especially concerned about my precious 560+ days streak…T.T

See the post by @knarusk in this thread: Memrise website and apps are down [ Edit: Fixed! ]
It explains what you may need to do to get your streak reinstated.

I really don’t care about streaks (I don’t need that feature, it clutters my board, I can still block it and hope to never have to see it again on my screen) - I care about reviewing my items and getting rid of those items I did review…
Thank you very much for this great hint, alanh! Now I can feel a little bit more relieved…
I know streaks are nothing really important when it comes down to the whole learning per se, but I really invested a lot of time and effort to make it that far and losing that now would feel horrible…
So, thanks a lot, that made my day

Yeah the review function is not working. I get the same 10 words over and over again and the count doesn’t go down.
I only care about the points so I have a measurement of how much I have gone through today.
German 1 course.
dear memrise, you got me 2704 items to review only in the courses i’ve bee learning the last week… (with the others (in which I’m learning more or less solely for my personal enjoyment, i’m well above 8000)

I’m having the same issue. I’m trying to review words for a course I’ve completed but haven’t touched for a while and it just gives me the same words over and over even if I get the questions for the perfect every time.
Same issue here for me. And interesting enough, my web course review totals don’t even equal my iOS app review totals. Both are rising faster than I have ever seen before. (Oh how I wish my stock market portfolio figures could rise as fast as this !)
Hopefully they will resolve this (and ALL the associated other issues soon). I’m not even go to bother learning or reviewing anything until the dust settles on this nightmare.

At least this experience has tangibly shown me how much time I spend studying. I say around six hours, but actually HAVING those six hours back today and yesterday…so much free time – to read novels in foreign languages!

same here - very frustrating - everything was going great until I got to the last lessons in Spanish 6 - keep getting the same 5 phrases from “learn” - and the “review” function doesn’t seem to register my learning and practice and just keeps repeating the same five phrases - please fix - this is such a great learning tool. VERY DISAPPOINTING.
ALSO - I paid for the extra functionality - will I be reimbursed if you don’t get this fixed?

now it is Wednesday GMT. I still cannot “review” one darn item
3 days since looking “ASAP” into the “issue” of fully broken web version and a week (?) since the resurrection of the dreaded “comma bug”. 
unless we look together with the team for the island of the day before, I think we have to redefine the meaning of “ASAP”
