Request to see friends and total number of players in leaderboards

I agree with both sugestions.  

The total number of players would allow you to know what percentage your score is in.  Now you are in the blind as to what percentage you finished in the tournament until the next day.  You could also add what percentage you are in on the leaderboard.

@electodreamNow would those two things be a novel idea. But seeing the latter would show how much a drop off in participation there was. I'm sure someone at EA is monitoring these stats.

Or at least I would hope someone is.
