My poll reply would be both 'yes' and 'no'. The idea doesn't clarify the parameters. 'Standings' from where? What level of 'accomplishments'? Myself, I would not likely read a sub-forum filled with misc, unrelated info.
Meeting goals and hitting milestones of any kind for players is naturally important. Final tables in any form are always exciting when we're associated in some way with that player. 98th in a 12,000 entry Hubble is 'nice', great for the Round 2 ticket winner, but not 'worthy' for a sub-forum IMO.
Most here are familiar with a few other forums that do maintain stats via 'rankings' and 'leaderboards', but only as they relate to players in that site's sponsored games. Maybe define a little more what you have in mind ... ??
