The honest leaderboard

Every rated time is server-timed and replay-checked — cheating here requires actually typing the solution in real time, unlike certain gray-lady leaderboards that accept whatever number your client reports.

Race your office, not the internet

Make a private group, send one link round the office, and you get a leaderboard with just your people on it — same puzzle, same day, everyone’s real times.
