With the addition of the swipe / mouse wheel scroll it would be really nice to be able to see the whole leader board to better know what is needed to place in events. Seems like a simple enough fix.

    I think the main issue here is that it brings up the data when you click on it, resulting in up-to-date information but that's also a lot of information that you're requesting if you wanna swipe. That's gonna result in a lot of lag/eats into your bandwidth.

    You bring up a great point and this is likely why it's never been implemented. I think a limited version to view the top 25 or so could be very useful though.

    The bandwidth on text is negligible, especially by today's standards.

    The bandwidth of the data isn't the problem, it's all the database calls necessary to populate such an inclusive list.

    The database call should be 1 per refresh. If they're making a call for every rank then it's incredibly inefficient.
