I thought you meant a self hosted leaderboard. Who is winning at self hosting?
well like the proper way to do it would be to just make a web app that interfaces with a database, not sure if there's anything plug and play that does this tho
Yeah, I'd search github for django implementations as you might have better luck searching something more specific.
I'm not even kidding, I had just resigned myself to having to learn how to code a basic site to do this haha.
I was already researching how to do this haha
I'd been floating a similar idea for MAME arcade high scores.
Currently, when I play a game on my arcade cabinet, the marquee image gets a date and the game's name stamped on it by ImageMagick, then gets uploaded so it can display on my blog. (yes -- I haven't played since March.. I should really play on my cab more)
I kind of wanted to automate a high score list on my blog. Though I'm fairly sure that's going to be considerably more work.
I used to have a high score page on my personal website with scores for my own games.
It was a simple submission php script that would add an entry to a database, and then the page to display the scores would simply query the table to display it on a page.
The submission script had a simple hash check to make sure no one was submitting fake scores outside of my games, but if this is just for you and your friends you likely don’t need such a thing.
