How does the squad leaderboard work?
The squad's Leaderboard screen ranks members against each other on contribution and activity, so the squad's internal standings are visible and a little friendly rivalry stays fuelled. It is the inside-the-squad counterpart to the platform's global leaderboard.
What it ranks
The leaderboard measures members' standing within the squad: who shows up, who contributes, who keeps the squad going. Climbing it is a matter of doing squad things: showing up for squad streams, participating in events and challenges, and generally being the member every squad wants ten of.
What it is for
- Motivation: a ranking gives everyone a reason to keep showing up.
- Recognition: consistent contributors are visible, not just loud ones.
- Recognition: the leaderboard is honest evidence of who is actually carrying the squad, which makes role decisions less political.
- Culture: a leaderboard the whole squad can see keeps standards ambient, nobody has to nag.
It is friendly infrastructure, not a firing list: squads that treat the bottom of the leaderboard as a purge queue tend to stop having a leaderboard problem and start having a member problem.
