Clean the Countries Leaderboard

Karpath’s Roblox blurb promises you can race for the fastest times on the leaderboard. This page is how that race actually feels: stacked FILL COUNTRIES timers, a Cash counter that is not the score, and a hall that gets worse as player count climbs to 20. If you still mix up pickup and clean, go back to Controls before you care about a board.

What the board is scoring

Until Karpath publishes a formal rulecard, treat the live HUD as the spec:

• FILL quotas completing before their timers hit zero
• A full tidy (pieces on continent shelves + specks hold-clicked) as the “clean time”
• Server-wide, not account-wide, if you are in a public instance — your ghost run is only yours in a quiet server

Cash, pets, and trails are not the board. They are fuel. Spend them using the tools tier list.

If two FILL tasks stack (25 / 12 / 2), the record that matters is all complete. Finishing FILL 25 and ignoring FILL 2 is a failed run, not a cheeky PB.

The record route

Copy the three-pass from How to Clean Faster and put splits on it:

1. 0:00–0:40 — S-tier giants only (countries tier list). No mop, no Shop.
2. Until crumbs visible — A and B countries by aisle. One continent at a time.
3. Last 30% — mop + microstates. G-special only if a cluster is still buried.
4. Buffer 10 seconds — do not open Pets. Look at the floor once more.

Screenshot the complete toast. If the board UI is a separate kiosk in the lobby, walk to it after, not during.

Server choice

Quiet servers beat stacked ones. A 20-player public instance has more hands and more collisions. For a PB:

• Party with 2–3 people who already know roles (players hub)
• Hop until the centre pile is intact
• Avoid instances where FILL 25 is already half done — you will inherit a messy shelf and a doomed timer

Private servers were not listed as enabled on the universe snapshot we pulled. If that changes, launch notes will say so.

Co-op splits for a time

• Player A: Americas runner-placer
• Player B: Asia runner-placer
• Player C: Africa + Europe + mop

Swap C to dedicated mop if Africa is still a landfill at the halfway mark. Do not add a fourth “floater” who steals USA. Floaters create double-grabs, which the board punishes even if it cannot name them.

Voice is better than chat for 0:20 remaining. Chat is better for “Pakistan, Asia” during pass 2.

What will never be a record

• Executor auto-place. None exist for this place, and using one is a ban (scripts).
• Fake codes that “grant 2x speed”. There are no verified codes.
• Copying a Clean the Library speedrun. Different parts, different shelves, different HUD.
• Mobile with a frozen camera. Fix binds first (controls finder).

Practice plan

Day 1: solo FILL 12 (Getting Started). Day 2: solo FILL 25 with carry upgrade. Day 3: two-player aisle split. Day 4: three-player with mop, screenshot times, compare.

If your time stalls, you are colour-sorting or mopping too early. Watch the first-look clip on How to Play and notice how long the pile stays a pile when nobody routes.

Karpath can add seasonal boards, map-specific times, or prestige resets. When they do, this page gets a table. Until then, your FILL complete timestamp is the PB.
