Hello, I'm a user who comes from the died site wii-records. I'd vote for option 1. If I can suggest this was the pattern that wii-records followed:

1- Obviously games and its charts. 2- The user submitted scores. 3- User submitted proofs. 4- Moderators/admins made approves/rejects. 5- If the score was approved, the score appeared in the site.

That site worked perfectly during 10 years getting over than 170000 scores until its death. Personally i have over 9 thousand scores. I'd name Video Games Highscores(dot)com.
