Some of them have been very tricky to find and test, and I want to get this code out soon, so your ghosts can be automatically uploaded along with your leaderboard scores and fill out the leaderboard for testing.

Please note that right now, nobody's scores will have ghosts attached to them, and you may see the "no ghost" message for a score.

When you load into a track, your best ghost will be automatically uploaded to Steam and only then will it be available to others.
