Holding scores of each and every score = pleasure. And come on, just how messy could it possibly get ?

Malek Deneith:
Every time you play you leave a high score... right now highscores carry between versions... It might not seem as much but it still would be a constantly growing file composed of data that 95% of the time isn't used. Seriously the short list there is is more than enough - no roguelike ever holds all highscores.

And it can reach...what... 1 mb ? Or even... *gasp* ... 3 mb size ?
More like several kb, i would say.

Where no man has gone before...good argument. Well, not that good, really.
I'm seeing DooMRL as a game more akin to Crimsonland, than an actual roguelike.

Even Crimsonland has hardcap of 100 highscores :P

Current highscore has about 300 kb and holds 20 scores... that's 1.5 mega every 100 scores. I played about 120 games but:
a)I don't play too much
b)it's only counting games from the lates version, as previous versions highscores couldn't be caried over
Someone more active (like Turgor or Jared_Caine for example) after few new versions could have several thousand plays.

And on top of that it really is redundand info - I don't think anyone would care for scores past, lets say, top 100

Mine is 218 b. Thats 1 kb for each 100.

Thats alright, there should be downsides of being a gaming maniac. :)
