[Userscript] Wanikani Leaderboard

[Dani2]

Script link:

Wanikani Leaderboard

Description

This script adds a leaderboard to your dashboard.

Get alerts of people’s level ups.

How does it work?.

Add a username and the script will automatically retrieve the level and avatar from the profile page (wanikani.com/users/theusername).

Background colors of users are determined by their ‘realm’ e.g. (pleasant, painful, death).

Users in the lv 51-60 range will have a percentage bar to show the percentage of burned items.
Other users will show their burn percentage on hover.

Awesome, now @Whologist can stalk everyone much more efficiently!

[Whologist]

Nice script @Dani2 thanks a bunch!

[seanblue]

@Dani2 Looks like the wkof not installed message still says the script is “WaniKani Dashboard Leech List”.

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

This is the script I didn’t know how much I needed

[abdullahalt]

Nice, I like it
But Can’t you find a better way to notify for level ups? Browsers’ Alerts are always the worst

[DaisukeJigen]

Not something I think I’ll be using, but I must admit, it is pretty darn cool.

[abdullahalt]

Don’t say that out loud, people will think you have no friends

That picture makes me want to set an avatar on WaniKani, but I’m not creating a gravatar account just for that…

[Belthazar]

Think I’m missing something here - how exactly does it pick which people to show in the list?

[Poikkax]

you add them by the username!

Let the incredibly slow race to 100% burn… begin!

[Ninkastmin]

So it’s like a race to the cake but on the main dashboard?

Haha, it would have been lots of fun some months ago, now i’m not really in need of it, but i love the concept and appreciate your effort.

thank you!

@Dani2 I wonder if it’s possible to balance them? Here’s my screenshot.

Thanks, I will make sure to change that.

I had actually intended to use some sort of custom warning box, but encountered some difficulty (don’t even remember what difficulty, probably styling) and stuck to just browser alerts. I do still intend to put a custom warning box in however! Might get it done in the coming weeks.

There might be something i can do

I’ll see if I can add this as an option in the leech script.

I find that some Avatars used for certain users are incorrect. What is causing this?
