Show Me a Leaderboard

How do you handle fairness and anti-cheating in practice (e.g., photo proof, edit history, moderator approvals, rate limits), especially for prizes or longer-running competitions?

What's the best way to use it for a Slack community? @catt_marroll

this is interesting — leaderboards can either be really motivating or really discouraging depending on how they're set up. do you have any mechanics to keep it fun for people who aren't at the top? like personal bests or smaller group boards? i've seen communities where the leaderboard kills engagement for everyone except the top 3.

How are you keeping engagement going over time, especially once the novelty of the leaderboard wears off?

Congrats on the launch! Very appropriate with this alpha day leaderboard! what is the most common type of competition people create leaderboards for that you've seen?

Its a cool idea, and i personally see it as an team building activity for any business. May i know if there is any limit on participants right now? I have a team of 220.What is the most easiest way for me to add those 220 people? Thanks

"5$ because u can code it urself" is the most honest saas pricing in history😅

Congrats on the launch! It’s a cool idea. Can I ask, do you need to be contacts/friends with people to join a contest, or can you freely search and join contests that others are hosting?

such a cool idea man, how do u come with such good ideas, (loved ur last product purposeful poop)

I started a micro-niche competition website for my friend-group and over the past 6 months it has slowly grown to be a very vibrant community. This was surprising to me!I now frequently find myself saying "Show me a leaderboard and I will show you an unreasonable amount of time trying to get to the top of it", based on the lengths I saw people go to win my 2025 contest (hence the name). People really love internet points, even more so against their friends! Show Me A Leaderboard allows anyone to host a competition, and gives you the tools to make it fun.There is not a ton of technical sophistication here, and most PH users can easily vibecode something like this very quickly, so feel free to do that! Our pricing of $5/year (per competition) is reflective of that.As an example, I made this contest, where you can compete to see who can leave the most comments on PH during launch day :)
