    I'm sure we are all likely aware of unscramble being an element of SB. I recently began thinking thinking that /reaction top is indeed very lame as it only displays your successes (if you're on the scoreboard), despite though I am quite skilled at typing the selected phrases efficiently and swiftly. So I struck up with a unique idea: a command which presents the phrases and words having required the least period of time to type. There are numerous methods of making this, but I suppose the one I managed to come up with this is the greatest. If you use the command /reaction fastest [word], it will reveal the top 10 instances for that word, including such "Snow Bucket" or "Noobcrew."

    The 100th place in unscramble appears to require 189 wins, making it very difficult for inexperienced participants to surpass just 100. Now I know this idea might be a tad excessive, however, I genuinely think it would motivate other members to give it their all and place themselves on the leaderboards.

    Here's a little example I created:

    The player base was created off /reaction top, I did not purposely remove, add, increase, or decrease a player's time based off my opinion on them. Everything is in order as /reaction top. And this is just an example, no need to get angry. :D

    Just seems like more ways to give glory to those who abuse this system with codes and bots that autocomplete it.

    I can assure you that nobody uses bots due to the random time duration the round takes to occur and the different words/phrases. Achieving under 2 seconds is not that difficult as you may think, you just need to be prepared with your cursor already over the line in chat the text will cover.

    People made multiple reports recently on a person scripting the reaction game. It literally does happen xD

    I suppose I could be wrong. However what is stopping an anticheat feature being made?

    How would it know the difference between scripts and people who have it on their clipboard?

    would be nice to see but would just encourage people to make more scripts so they can get some fame for getting a word in like 0.01 seconds or whatever :skull:

    Wouldn't it be only logical for mods to step in if they see 0.01?

    I'm sure there's some way, I'm not intelligent in programming so I don't have an answer for that.

    It is probably easier for a human to recognize suspicious activity over a long course of time than building a custom plugin. Realisitcally a single quick solve (unless it's 0.01) is not suspicious on it's own. But if someone is solving it very fast, every single time, the entire time they're online it becomes more suspicious - which is kinda tedious to program, but really straightforward to just...look at with human eyes.

    Regarding the suggestion, I'm just not that sure I care about who is the fastest per word. I guess it would be funny to see the fastest solves of supercalifragilisticexpialidocious or whatever, but I'm not all that invested in the feature either way, I guess. Neutral from me, sorry.

    Wish they could add something like this that was new player friendly. Its pretty much impossible to ever get top 10 if you joined skyblock in 2021-2022 . Players who joined when this thing was added have an advantage by couple thousnad lol. It would be good to see a weekly or monthly leaderboard as well. (And obviously keep the overall leaderboard).

    i think people are getting a little out of topic when it comes to scripts and such, they may be a problem but they arent so related to this suggestion if we consider theres no prize or anything for getting into this leaderboards, this doesnt encourage cheating any more than the grass you get for winning already does, maybe having leaderboards would actually help to notice those people with consistent inhuman times, and considering that the people that play scramble fairly often compete to get very low times it would be a great adittion, tho im not sure if this plugin is able to be modified so thats a point to check with the development team.

    With all due respect I completely disagree. Players would script to simply be on the leaderboard, no one cares about the 1 grass you get. Just having the "status" on said leaderboard would be enough to drive people to cheat
