A suggestion I have is to store demos of runs at the leaderboard servers.
Given that there are botted runs in the leaderboards today, the "demo or didn't happen"-rule is pretty much already in effect.
If we decide to ban something again, like "random"-OB:s for instance, then process of leaderboard cleanup becomes a lot easier if we have access to all of the demos. Some excellent maps have effectively been killed because of unreported use of wallbug in rank 1 runs made prior to the wallbug-ban, and we can't verify this without the demos.
I know that a manual cheat detection system like this isn't an ideal solution because of extra server storage requirements etc., but solutions like automatic real-time server-side cheat detection is evidently not enough.
A system like this would also require active admins, which probably is the biggest issue in df today.

I do wonder what will happen if we have a new record system though, will the whole database reset and make the current top another oldtop or what?
