Leaderboard guide

The leaderboard is where a good round becomes a measurable run. Understanding what the boards track and how score submission works helps avoid confusion and makes improvement easier to judge.

Daily and all-time rankings both matter. Daily is the easier place to break through quickly, while all-time rewards consistency and exceptional runs.

Daily vs all-time boards

Top Today

Daily rankings reset with the current day and are useful for quick competition, shorter experiments, and seeing immediate progress.

Top Ever

All-time rankings hold up over much longer periods. To place well there, you usually need a clean combo-focused run with strong power-up timing.

How score submission works

  • Finish a round normally.
  • Enter or confirm a display name.
  • Save the score from the round-over panel.
  • If accepted, the score is refreshed into the current leaderboard lists.

How scores are validated

Score saving is not a blind client-side form. The server checks round-session data, validates the round length, rejects obviously invalid values, rate limits excessive requests, and blocks recent duplicate submissions. That does not make cheating impossible, but it does make casual abuse and spam much harder.

Name quality and moderation

Display names can be rejected if they are empty, too long, look like scripts or links, or appear abusive or misleading. Using one stable player name is the best way to make your own runs easy to recognize.

Why a score might not save

  • The round session expired.
  • The score looked invalid or out of range for the round length.
  • The request hit a rate limit or duplicate rule.
  • The display name failed validation.
  • The leaderboard service was temporarily unavailable.

How to climb higher

  • Prioritize accuracy over pure speed.
  • Protect combos during messy patterns instead of forcing bad throws.
  • Use control boosts to create better scoring windows.
  • Practice on shorter rounds and take serious attempts on the length that suits you best.
