Past You Ghost

Definition

A row on every MoveTogether leaderboard representing your personal best for the equivalent week — racing you as if it were a live competitor. Even in a solo competition, the Past You Ghost gives you someone to compete against.

Past You Ghost appears on every active competition leaderboard, with distinct styling so it's recognizable at a glance. Your current week is compared against your best historical equivalent (e.g., 'best Monday-through-Sunday week'). If you've never logged a comparable week, the ghost is the best Monday-through-Sunday week MoveTogether has on record for you.

The goal is to make solo competitions meaningful — you can always race the version of yourself who showed up on a good week. It's also a useful subtle motivator in friend competitions, because losing to your own past self lands differently than losing to a friend.
