Top of the leaderboard, baby!

The Xbox 360 brought all kinds of neat touches to consoles, one of them being robust online leaderboards. They were by no means the first stab at global high-score tables, but most games offered different leaderboards per level/mission or track, per difficulty, some ranked by score, some by time, some by how few times you died.

My question is: Have you ever been at the top of an online leaderboard? A major one? An incredibly minor one? Do you have proof? If you do I would love to see it.

Even if it was for a fleeting moment, it counts!

Jane and I were number one in a Lips track a couple of years ago. We downloaded Build Me Up Buttercup pretty much an hour after it came out and as it was a totally new song to Lips, no-one had developed the Star Points strategy for it yet. After a quick sing-through, the leaderboard appeared before us and thought we could potentially crack it.

A few songs later:

I still take great delight, to this day, to mention that at one point I was the best singer of a certain song in the world whenever anyone criticises my singing.
