Global Leaderboard

Here is a breakdown of how players are positioned on Global Leaderboard:

Completion of Full 11 Rounds:

To secure a spot on the leaderboard, players must complete the full 11 rounds of Shanghai Rummy. This demonstrates your commitment and dedication to the game, showcasing your journey from start to finish.

Month Assignment Uses Game Finish Time:

Leaderboard month assignment is based on when a game finishes in UTC, not when it starts. For example, if a game starts in March and ends in April, it counts in April.

Monthly Eligibility Window:

Monthly eligibility window is based on the first completed games in month (by end time), not start order.

FREE players can count wins from their first 15 completed games.

VIP players can count wins from their first 30 completed games.

Best 10 Eligible Wins Count:

Only your best 10 eligible wins each month count toward your leaderboard position. Your best wins are the ones with the lowest scores.

Ranking Order and Tie-Break:

Ranking order uses counted wins first. If players have the same counted wins, the lower counted total score ranks higher.

In the spirit of Shanghai Rummy, a lower score is the ultimate goal. Keep your score low to improve your position in tied-win situations.

VIP Leaderboard

This is Subscriber-only competition. Here is a breakdown of how players are positioned on VIP Leaderboard:

Completion of Full 11 Rounds:

Only completed 11-round games count toward either monthly leaderboard.

Month Assignment Uses Game Finish Time:

Leaderboard month assignment is based on when a game finishes in UTC, not when it starts. For example, if a game starts in March and ends in April, it counts in April.

VIP Leaderboard:

It counts every win where the player had VIP status when the game ended, with no best-10 cap.

If Your VIP Subscription Ends Mid-Month:

Wins earned while you had VIP still stay on that month's VIP board. If you later lose VIP access, the in-game leaderboard returns to the Global view by default, but the VIP wins you already earned still count for that month.
