remove the fake TOP players from the leaderboards.

there are many players who inflate their elo playing only games with new players of 1500 elo. and those players are taking up space on the leaderboard. i show as an example the self-partnering leaderboard because there you can notice this more. the top 1 is an example of a player who only farms with new players.
my solution is to remove all players with more than 75glicko from the leaderboard. 
the leaderboard should show the best players, not the farmers, maybe a player is working hard to get to the top and there are many places occupied by this kind of players.
don't misunderstand, there is no inconvenience that those players only play against 1500players, if they have fun doing that, that's fine, they can keep doing it, I just say that they shouldn't appear in the leaderboard if they have a high glicko.

I remember the original name called "Chaturaji Hyper Fiesta" when you could fill a challenge in minutes.

in resume it is a system that shows the real strength of the player, an average player in 4pc is around 60/75 points of glicko, if that player decides to play games of low rating that does not correspond to his elo, his glicko will go up to 80/90 and even to more than 100 if he plays only with new players. the higher the glicko the more false is the strength of the player.

exampleUpdate 2025: The leaderboard problem has not been resolved yet. There are still fake top players who only play against new players with an Elo rating of 1500.
