Discord Speedrun Bot for Fastest-Time Leaderboards
Native 00:00:00 time format, millisecond precision, and configurable sort order. Built for speedrun communities where every thousandth of a second matters.
Add to DiscordScoreboards is the Discord speedrun bot built for time-based competition. Whether it's game speedruns, racing laps, puzzle-solve times, or real-world timed events, players submit runs in 00:00:00 format, the board sorts fastest-first (or slowest-first for endurance formats), and a web leaderboard keeps every PB shareable outside Discord.
What is a speedrun leaderboard?
A speedrun (or time) leaderboard ranks players by how fast they completed something. Each player's personal best is kept, slower attempts are ignored, and the board sorts fastest to slowest so the top time sits on top.
The format comes from video-game speedrunning communities but works for anything timed: racing laps, escape-room clears, puzzle solves, 5K runs — any activity where the stopwatch decides the winner.
When the difference between first and second is a thousandth of a second, you need a system that respects that precision. That's what a time leaderboard is for.
How Scoreboards does speedruns
Native 00:00:00 format
Submit times as minutes:seconds:fraction — 01:23:45 for hundredths, or 01:23:456 for full milliseconds. The bot parses and validates the format — malformed entries are rejected before they hit the board.
Millisecond precision
Times are stored to the millisecond, so razor-thin margins rank correctly instead of collapsing into a tie. Each board displays hundredths or milliseconds — your choice in the dashboard.
Fastest-first or slowest-first
Choose ascending sort for speedruns (lowest time wins) or descending for endurance formats (longest time wins) — the bot handles both.
Personal-best tracking
Only each player's best time stays on the board. Slower attempts are quietly ignored, so the leaderboard is always a true PB ranking.
Verification & approval flow
Submissions can land in a validator channel for moderator review — useful when runs need video or screenshot proof before they count. Auto-approve after a configurable delay for low-friction boards.
Live web leaderboard
Every speedrun board gets a web leaderboard with every player's PB and full submission history — shareable outside Discord for recruiting runners and bragging rights.

Multiple ways in, one leaderboard
Players submit however suits them — the Submit button right on the leaderboard message, the /submit command, or straight from the web leaderboard. Times post in 00:00:00 format no matter which route, and the board picks up each new PB immediately.
Time the run
Player completes the run, lap, or timed activity and records their time.
Submit the time
Use /submit with the time in 00:00:00 format. The bot rejects malformed entries before they hit the board.
Validate (optional)
Moderators can require video or screenshot proof and approve the run in the validator channel before it counts.
PB comparison
If the new time is faster than the player's current PB, it replaces the record and re-sorts the board. Slower attempts are ignored.
One board per variant
Running multiple formats? Spin up separate boards — one per race length, one per game mode, one per route. Each keeps its own records without mixing rules.
Millisecond tie-breaking
When two runs differ by a hair, the board ranks them correctly — no collapsing to identical times, no disputed ties.
Moderated when it matters
For boards where runs need proof (video, screenshot, witness), send submissions through a validator channel so a run doesn't count until a mod signs off.
Shave the seconds. Claim the record.
A live speedrun leaderboard turns every attempt into a chance to bump the board — and gives your community a shared record of the fastest times ever posted.

When to use a speedrun leaderboard
Video-game speedruns
Track best completion times for any game or level, with separate boards if you want to split by game mode or ruleset.
Racing & lap times
Time trials, kart racing, sim-racing lap times, track completions — anywhere fastest-lap is the metric.
Puzzle & timed challenges
Quiz-solve speed, memory challenges, escape rooms — anything with a start-and-stop timer.
Real-world timed events
Running splits, cycling laps, obstacle-course runs — any real-world activity where speed is the prize.
