The sort is reset every time

In the previous version, if you sorted by the top player's results, the sorting order would be preserved the next time you opened the game.
However, since the update, it resets every time.
I would like the option to either save the sorting order or specify it in the configuration file.

Also, what is the status of the previously suggested feature for granting permissions to top players?
At present, it seems that a command is executed when a player reaches the top.
I would like the ability to grant permissions to the top player (ideally those in 1st through 3rd place),
and have it automatically revoke permissions from all others when someone else reaches the top.
