Right now there are two leaderboards, one for “Classic Mode”, and one for “Masochistic Mode”.
These two boards don’t really fit with the newer options for gameplay. The difficulty setting was replaced with a speed setting a while ago, but it is still loosely linked to the leaderboards. If you pick “Slow” your scores go on the “Classic” board regardless of your settings, this is not really optimal, as you may be playing with all handicaps active!
I am going to make the boards more… tied in with the game. There will be three boards, one for each speed, but now when a hi-score is posted, it will also shoe the active handicaps using the “extra data” feature of GameJolt’s API. This will be available in the next update for all versions, that’s coming out on or before Monday.
I am also changing the way scores get submitted. The highest score you get in a play session is now stored, and they are submitted while you keep playing. The old way paused the game, and crashed it sometimes, while uploading scores, but this should iron out those flaws.
