How the leaderboard works

Learn how servers are ranked on our leaderboard

Last updated: January 12, 2026

Our leaderboard is designed to highlight the most active and engaged Hytale server communities. Here's how we determine server rankings.

Current ranking system

Servers are currently ranked based on the total number of votes received in the last 7 days. This rolling window ensures that active communities stay at the top, while giving newer servers a fair chance to climb the ranks through consistent community engagement.

How voting works

Players can vote for their favorite servers once every 24 hours. Each vote counts towards the server's 7-day total. Voting is a great way to support servers you enjoy and help other players discover active communities.

Coming soon: Online players

Once Hytale launches, we will incorporate online player counts into our ranking algorithm. This will provide a more complete picture of server activity by combining community engagement (votes) with real-time player activity. Stay tuned for updates!

Fair play

We actively monitor for vote manipulation and other forms of abuse. Servers found engaging in unfair practices may be penalized or removed from the directory. Our goal is to maintain a fair and trustworthy platform for the entire Hytale community.
