Finally its that time of the year - leaderboards are here! It took a bit longer than expected, and hopefully, they don't break in the long run! We also have Discord integration - gone are the days of having to submit a screenshot of your result and waiting for a mod to manually approve it. Now, all you have to do is pair your MT account to your Discord account, and our bot George the Monkey will handle the rest! This is also another place you can contribute - check out the readme on the GitHub page for more.
New features:
- Discord Integration. You can pair your accounts in the settings. Generate a pairing code first, and then private message George the bot to get verified. George will automatically assign you a new role if you get a PB in a 60 second test. He will also announce changes in the top 3 global leaderboards in the general channel. The bots functionality will continue to expand as I get more ideas for awesome things to add.
- Leaderboards! You all know how leaderboards work - the faster you are, the more bragging rights you have. I chose to introduce two leaderboards: time 15 and time 60. There is no leaderboards for 'words' type tests as it would not be balanced (faster typists would complete the test quicker and it wouldn't be fully representative of their speed). Both leaderboards have a global version, which doesn't reset, and a daily version which reset every day at midnight UTC (there is a time-to-reset number, just above the daily leaderboard so you dont have to do any guessing). All you have to do to get onto the leaderboards is have an account, and complete the correct test. Good luck!
