What the board ranks
Not wins. A run is scored out of 1000, and a 52-0 year with a thin trophy cabinet can finish below a 49-win year that swept the award shows. Weeks at number one are the largest single component, but daesangs, perfect all-kills and viral moments all carry real weight, and the raw quality of the seven idols you drafted is scored on its own.
That is deliberate. Going unbeaten is the headline, but a year is judged the way a real one is — on what you have to show for it at the end of December.
Today and all time
Today ranks the daily draft only. Everyone in the world gets the same seven spins in the same order, drawn from the date itself, so it is the one board where every run faced identical conditions. It resets at midnight UTC.
All time takes runs from free play, where you choose which generations and group types are in the pool and get re-spins. Higher ceiling, and not comparable between two players who filtered differently.
Every score is recomputed, never trusted
Submitting a run sends only the seed and the seven idols you picked. The server replays the draw from that seed, checks each pick came from a group the reels actually landed on, re-runs the full 52-week simulation and scores it. The number your browser showed you is never read. A fabricated lineup — a dream team of idols who were never on the table — fails verification and is rejected outright.
Getting on it
Finish a year and submit under any name; there is no account. Realistically the board rewards the same things the game does: fill positions with idols who actually play them, keep your comebacks spread so your single is never cold for long, and take the links when the reels offer them. A daesang sweep is a strong day. A perfect dynasty is closer to one run in two hundred.
