Hi all! Loving the new community on Lemmy. It grew to 18k FAST holy crap.

I was wondering if there was a simple self-hostable leaderboard available? Nothing crazy like able to add a new row on the webpage, auto-sort to the top score is at the top, etc.

To help with context, a group of friends and I are playing DnD, and just recently we started dkeeping track of and playing a new meta game and keeping score.

  • Fastest player gets knocked to 0hp.
  • Fastest player death
  • most damage per turn
  • most damage per attack

Etc and stuff like that.

It’d be awesome if there was a self-hosted way to do this so all players can see quickly on a webpage instead of opening a shared spreadsheet.

Any ideas? Google is just showing me links to others asking the same question on Reddit.

    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.

    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

      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
