Awesome pick up, G! A very merry Kwanzaa indeed. Might even be some Festivus in there too. When I saw the delivery photo I was surprised to see that you had splurged so hardcore on the pin, but well done. It's a great game.

If the user high scores are saved to NVRAM, you'll be rid of the factory defaults soon enough

Grats again!
