  1. Arbitrarily deciding on point values based on player count just doesn't make sense. This has been brought up before and the consensus is that randomly deciding how good or optimized a run is based on player count is not at all indicative of the actual skill of the run. In other words, a WR run in a game with 5 runners may be more optimized than a WR in a game with 100 runners, so how would you assign points accordingly?

  2. What does SRL have to do with this? SRL is not a ranking site nor an LB site, all it does is host Twitch streams from runners with accounts. It’s essentially a re-streaming service, so it has no bearing on this site or anything like that (it also doesn’t verify runs or anything like that on SRL).

Not entirely true. Leaderboards are being held there. See link: https://www.speedrunslive.com/races/game/#!/OoT/1

On-topic, SRL already has a ranking system on a game-by-game basis. And for SR.C, all I can think of is how abusable this would be. It wouldn't be a good idea, for the same reason @Timmiluvs mentioned about how to weigh different games.

I like the way The Elite have a kind of combined leaderboard of all the IL records for Goldeneye / Perfect Dark.

I tried to make a leaderboard for Streets Of Rage 4 but there was little interest in it so I haven't really maintained it. I'll probably update it every so often for my own entertainment.

I meant SRL doesn’t have LBs for RTA runs which is what (I think) the OP was talking about, so I should have been more specific. Unless OP was talking about a point based ranking for races rather than actual grinding runs of categories in which case that SRL LB might be exactly what they are looking for.
