🏆 Leaderboards
- Most Overall Plays: Every quiz attempt counts as one play. Replaying the same quiz multiple times will still increase your total play count.
- Most Unique Quizzes Played: Tracks how many different quizzes you’ve played. Replaying the same quiz does not increase this count—each quiz only counts once.
- Top Scorers in Trivia: Totals the points earned from trivia quizzes, with each correct answer worth one point. If you replay a quiz, only your highest score for that quiz will count toward your total points.
For example, if you played a quiz 30 days and 1 minute ago, that play no longer counts. This system helps keep the leaderboards fresh and fair, rewarding players who are consistently active.
🔁 There's no midnight reset.
Your totals don’t refresh at the start of each new day. Instead, your numbers update in real-time. If you played a lot at this time exactly 30 days ago, and you haven’t matched that activity today, your totals might drop, even if you just played a few quizzes.
Still unclear? Think of it like this:
🎢 Imagine a conveyor belt that only holds 30 days of quizzes. When you play a quiz now, it gets added to the belt. But as time passes, older quizzes fall off the other end. If you’re less active now than you were at the same time 30 days ago, your total might go down—even though you're still playing.
- Top 200 players: The top 200 players get a colored badge for each leaderboard you rank on. All badges appear on your profile and alongside your names in the comments section.
- Top 20 players: The top 20 players on any leaderboard earn exclusive Winner nametag styles. Nametags are used to personalize your name throughout the site.
- Top 3 players: The top 3 players on any leaderboard earn prestigious Champion nametag styles. Nametags are used to personalize your name throughout the site.
