BoringScoreboard (Simple and stuff)

Simple

The scoreboard doesn't have a very large config.
It contains an option for the scoreboards title, the update rate and a line for each row of text on the scoreboard. That's it.

Animations?

Hell nah man. Animations make the config look like crap and confuses people. This scoreboard does not support animations.

Placeholders

Yes sir! PlaceholderAPI is an optional dependency to this plugin.
PlaceholderAPI provides a load of placeholders you can use.
You can find a bunch of placeholders here: https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Placeholders
Remember to download expansions via the cloud!
Personally, I recommend always getting the Player and Vault expansions. To obtain those, use the following two commands:

/papi ecloud download Vault
/papi ecloud download Player

Only 1.8?

No. It should work on version 1.8 and also all versions newer than 1.8.
