I noticed this while watching Gamespot's video review. When they cut to the leaderboard I saw a few familiar names at and near the top. GB represent!

GB representing on Bastion's leaderboard
He's still the only one up there with all 10 of the things turned on.
I'm really loving the game so far, got that vibe to it that's sticking in me. Hope it's not too short.
Yeah, I think it's just in order of who finished it first.How does the leaderboard work? I checked earlier and a bunch of people have now done what Brad has yet he still remains. Does that mean he is number 1 for life?
Pretty neat, really.
I think that's pretty dumb. A leaderboard should be based on skill, not a "first come, first served" mentality.@mrcraggle said:

So the leaderboard will be #1 is whoever got it first? Isn't that unfair since Brad got it before the game was even available?

As a design choice, you're right, it's dumb.
After I beat the game today I was sitting in the top 300 but I haven't played the new game plus mode due to company. Gnight duders, I am going to try and burn through it again tomorrow it was a great game. Don't forget to add me if you want Eight Bit Shik

Seems like a design oversight on their behalf. Maybe they should've implement some score or time system with weekly and monthly boards, ya know like all score boards :P
@metalsnakezero brad hasn't been number one for over 3o hours so it can't be who finished firstHe is for the challenge rooms or was a couple hours ago.
Finish the fight and take back the number one spot on story mode.NOT FOR LONG
WE BELIEVE IN BRAD SHOEMAKER
So basically the top of the challenge leaderboards are set in stone and have been since before most of us could even buy the game? That's kind of ridiculous.
I never was able to figure out the leaderboards for this, when I beat it a second time my score went up slightly.
