Since launch we've been re-examining ways in which we encourage competition on Puzzmo, and have a better sense of what we're doing which can make folks feel bad about a puzzle which they thought they did well in.

Some games just seem to have folks competing at a different level, which is cool, but kinda de-motivating to see straight after you completed something tricky. Now, you're mostly competing with past you, and we have kept a way to let you know about interesting highlights. You would be astute to note that the screenshots above somewhat contradict this, because they still include _"Global rank xth"_ - this is now a choice! If you set your leaderboards to be friends only, the messages will respect that choice!

- If you have broken a personal record for a statistic, we let you know
- If you have global leaderboards set, we show your rank if your position is under 250
- If you have friend leaderboards set, we show your positions compared to your friends

We're trying to run Puzzmo on a reasonable budget, and so we aren't storing all of the history for folks who are not logged in! They will see a small prompt to sign up.
