Q: How can I get my channel added to the leaderboard menu?

A: If you are keen for your channel to be able to take part fill out the form here. Please understand that just because you fill out the form, doesn’t mean you will be taking part. There are some in house criteria and quotas used to select the YouCubers for any given round to include a cross section of the YouCubing Community. Ohh, and of course SwiftCubing will be in there each time as part of the fun is seeing if you can take down the creator of the game!

UPDATE: Due to the unforseen popularity of YouCubers wanting to be included on the list of YouCubers to play for, the following balanced method will be used for selecting the cubers for each round. This is subject to change.
