A leaderboard could be placed in the main menu showing:
(Category - Sub Category 1, Sub 2, and so on)
WRs (Player) - Verified Levels, All Levels
Top 3 Times (Player) - Verified Levels, All Levels
Most Plays (Player)
Most Played Levels (Level and Player)
By clicking on a player in the menu you would be able to see their player avatar and levels.
Also being top 3 on any of the leaderboards gets you a trophy next to your name in either gold, silver or bronze.

Yessss this would be so awesome. Would definitely boost competitivity
young ridge
Would also boost toxicity though
prime sundial
I like this idea but I do agree that it would add some sort of toxic behaviour
compact sedge
Would also boost toxicity though
Competition comes at a cost, but it would be sooooo worth it
Even if it was just on the level browser tbh I just want the stats
prime sundial
Also what do you mean by “most played levels”?
compact sedge
Most plays on a level
Wait..
Idk
Most plays vs most played levels
Oh most played levels would be based on how much you play the game
prime sundial
Ohhhh
compact sedge
I think WRs, total level plays, and most played level would be all that we would need
prime sundial
Yeah true
Although it would be interesting to see who has played the most levels overall
compact sedge
Yea, although idk if that stat exists atm so it might have to be restarted
prime sundial
Yeah probably not

I do want to provide some more stats eventually, but I don't plan of having leaderboards of those
I don't currently have any of those stats though, which means I first need to implement them and ideally fill with existing data from each level, but doing that for 175k levels and 600k players is a bit tricky
compact sedge
Just the verified levels could be a start, and there’s only 3k of them so it would be much easier to create the data from the current leaderboards
young ridge
still the same problem, just faster to do
also people get confused if things only include some stuff and not other, I don't like treating things differently that could be treated the same
compact sedge
Would the WRs be all levels or just verified, cos i feel it would be useless unless it was only verified levels
young ridge
in my opinion it should be all of them
compact sedge
If so they should be tiered. Beating a community level vs a verified level has a huge difference in worth
young ridge
does it though?
it really depends on the level
beating the mountain vs beating fun slide
compact sedge
The mountain is a major outlier
compact sedge
I think it should be total WRs, and verified WRs
Otherwise you could easily get a tonne or WRs by just playing the thousands of ultra easy/ start next to finish/ empty maps
Other way to put it, someone like me, kud, famguy, etc would play almost just verified levels and would have a max of 3k WRs that they might get but some random kid who spams 10 second community levels would have more WRs
Just doesn’t have a point
young ridge
it just shows that the number as such is not very meaningful anyway
compact sedge
The verified levels one would be, all the levels are quality, decent length, and there aren’t too many of them so people will be playing the same maps.
I really think this would work with just total and verified seperate
young ridge
they are really not all "decent length"
and the number of verified levels is also going up
it's also a massive difference if you hold all world records on frosty maps and someone else has them on all escape room maps
it's just not a good number, except for some peoples ego 🤷
compact sedge
It creates competition, we want it so we can compete against each other to get the most
It’s fun
young ridge
competing on leaderboards on specific maps is way more meaningful
the more you make me think about it the less I like the idea of exposing wr stats
compact sedge
😦
young ridge
the only thing I still think would be useful is having a list of the maps that you have wrs on
because then it's not just a kinda meaningless number to compare
compact sedge
that would work for me, would that be available to everyone or just to the user who’s list it is?
compact sedge
Would be perfect if anyone could see anyone’s list because we could use it for grab league

Total plays on all your levels
