Neat concept, but utterly disgusting that Discord is still used as a social platform. Matrix is much less odious.

What's wrong with Discord?

Discord is the ultimate gatekeeper of information these days, and the company behind it cannot be trusted with its user data.

Besides being a centralized, proprietary data harvesting operation that has slowly started selectively enforcing mandatory identity verification requirements, despite their previous identity verification provider already getting hacked and leaking 70,000 people's PII?

Nothing says "hacker culture" like voluntarily submitting your photo ID and a real-time facial scan to big brother so your de-anonymized communications can be permanently logged and used against you by the state as soon as a future administration decides you're a disfavored person.

And yet, the highest scores on the scoreboard are 10, which happens to be the score you get by completing the tutorials for using pwn.college.

each module has it's own scoreboard, so yes, the scoreboard for the tutorial module maxes out at the maximum score for the tutorial module.

This is not a very hacker-like mindset!

I would claim that if you can set a higher score, my statement would still stand, as you have modified the maximum limit!

It's maybe should be called something else if this is the case, but don't they show the latest "high scores" or complete finishes of the latest users to complete the module? Might not be high score or at least overall, but do remember noticing that yet seeing my username when I went through this a little while back so felt like more of a misnomer rather than an oversight.
