Each leaderboard has its own criteria:

What do I need to do to appear on the leaderboards?

You must be a registered user to join the leaderboards. Your activity will be automatically calculated to determine your ranking(s).
What rewards can I earn from being on the leaderboards?

  • Top 200 players: Earn a colored badge for each leaderboard you rank on. Badges show up on your profile and next to your name in comments.

  • Top 20 players: Unlock exclusive Winner name styles to personalize your name site-wide.
  • Top 3 players: Claim prestigious Champion name styles—reserved for the very best.

Every month, all Top 20 players also receive a trophy displayed on their profile. Collect as many as you can!

How can I check my ranking on the leaderboards?

Each leaderboard includes a search feature where you can enter your name or username, including partial matches, to see how you rank. If you see a dash (-) instead of a number next to your name, it means you are not currently in the top 200 for that leaderboard.
Can I appear on more than one leaderboard?

Yes! You can rank on multiple leaderboards simultaneously based on your quiz activity.
What should I do if I notice an issue with my leaderboard ranking?

If something doesn't look right with your leaderboard ranking, please contact our support team. We'll investigate the issue and make sure everything is accurate. We take leaderboard integrity very seriously.

🔥 Streaks

What timezone does Quizly use to track streaks?

Quizly uses UTC/GMT to standardize streak tracking for our global user base. If your quiz is completed after midnight UTC/GMT, it will count towards the next day's streak.
Can I restore my streak if I miss a day?

Yes! Streak Savers automatically protect your streak when you miss a day, so your progress continues without resetting. Make sure you have stocked up in advance.
Why is my streak broken even though I had played a quiz today?

Quizly tracks streaks based on UTC/GMT. If you complete a quiz after midnight UTC/GMT, it counts towards the new day even if it is the same day in your local time.
What is a Streak Saver?

A Streak Saver automatically saves your streak if you miss a day. That means your streak continues without resetting!
How do I use a Streak Saver?

Streak Savers activate automatically whenever you miss a day. Notifications tell you when one is used. You don't have to do anything—just keep playing quizzes!
Can I see my Streak Saver usage history?

Yes. Your inventory shows a history of Streak Savers earned, purchased, and used.
