I did this previously. Ratings were manually gathered from playstationtrophies.org and inputted into a database. When the platinum leaderboard was generated, it would automatically calculate everyones totals based on the information in the database. Even with the database it was still very time consuming to manually gather the difficulty rating for new games that had to be added to the database.

Now, there is the possibility of automatically gather the difficuly rating from playstationtrophies.org. However, I think this would be prone to a lot of errors since we would be gathering data from two different sites. If a game title is slightly different on one site vs the other (for whatever reason), it could mess things up.

Sorry if this is in a previous post - I know you used to assign the platinum ratings manually.  How are you doing it right now?

Previously, I would manually assign a platinum difficulty rating to a game based on the average found in the "Platinum Difficulty Rating" threads on playstationtrophies.org.

Now, the platinum difficulty ratings are pulled automatically from psntrophyleaders.com  and are based on the rarity of the platinum trophy. The smaller the percentage of people to earn the platinum trophy, the higher the platinum rating.
