The total and thirty tiers.

The six position scores sum to a total from zero to six hundred, cut into thirty bands twenty points wide and ranked on a leaderboard held as a sorted set in Valkey by each player’s best total.

The six summed to a total out of 600, the range cut into thirty tiers, and the leaderboard. Select a part.

The idea

codemojex · the total and the tiers

The six position scores sum to the guess total, from zero to a maximum of six hundred when every emoji sits exactly right. That total is the unit everything downstream speaks in: it is what the leaderboard ranks and what a tier is cut from. A player’s standing is their best total, not their last, so a strong guess is never undone by a weaker one after it.

The zero-to-six-hundred range splits into thirty bands twenty points wide, and a total falls into one of them. Tiers turn a raw score into a readable rung — a player sees which band they reached and how far the next one is — and they give the live game its sense of progress without revealing anyone else’s guesses.

The leaderboard is held as a sorted set in Valkey, keyed by the game and scored by each player’s best total, so reading the top of the board or a player’s rank is a direct lookup. It is a derived view: the totals and the tiers recompute from the recorded guesses on Postgres, which remains the record of truth if the sorted set is ever rebuilt.

/echomq

EchoMQ — the protocol, in depth

The bus B3 narrates, taught rung by rung: the keyspace, the Lua inventory, and the 3.0 Stream Tier — XADD, XREADGROUP, XACK — with conformance on Valkey.

 /redis-patterns

Redis Patterns Applied

The substrate patterns under the bus: sorted sets, atomic Lua moves, locks, and streams — the judgement layer.

 /echo-persistence

Echo Persistence — the durable floor

Beneath the volatile tiers: the Graft page engine built twice, the commit-LSN loop, and the stream archive on Tigris. Where Part I says state lives somewhere, this says where it lives durably.
