    Suggestion:
    Add a leaderboard that displays top 5/top 10 baltop every day or every other day from the current week
    Add a leaderboard that shows the top 5/top 10 of the previous week
    Add a leaderboard that shows the top 5/top 10 of the month
    Keep the leaderboard that displays the top 5/top 10 of all time

    Reason:
    I think that the people who play VMR deserve to know who is in the lead throughout the week.

    Any Other Information:
    To those of you who urge non-Patrons to buy Patron, consider the following: Many users do not have either the ECD or the USD to buy Patron. Adding /baltop was a good thing and I think that having it available at a Patron's fingertips is definitely an incentive to purchase Patron, especially right after a reset or right before a reset. However, I think the current system does not allow equal opportunities to all players because the sense of competition is not there, and if it is, the player is going in blindly. I believe that adding a section of the leaderboard to show the current week's leaders will give incentive for other, less fortunate players to be more competitive.

    Link To This Plugin/Is this a custom addition?:
    You already have the url, it would be a matter of adding two more tables to the page and updating one of the tables every day or every other day.

    -1 I think that Patron is a server-wide rank for a reason, and adding this leaderboard would make Patron lose value. Even so, you can just ask a patron (like me) and I'd be glad to tell you the baltop. Isn't that the community we are? As for actually getting patron, I believe it is rather expensive for the reason that with more gamemodes coming out, more patron perks will come too. This will add more and more value to it as the server grows, but right now I think that we shouldn't focus on removing perks to an already expensive rank.

    I agree with above. If I'm actually on and playing in VMR, and someone wants to know baltop, I'm fine with giving an estimate to the top player and what they are at. I think adding a baltop leaderboards serverwide on the forums or whatever would ruin the point of patrons having /baltop more than just giving others a way to see the top.

    I agree with the above if you want a leaderboard just get patron and if you don’t want to just ask a friendly member of ecc in chat

    This already exists in Patron.
