The high score board will only apply to actual players, not NPC's. Most
NPC's will be in the game very briefly before getting knocked out, so I
doubt many of them will survive the round and I don't think we want to
keep track of points for every NPC in the game.

There may be more than one player on a machine (though of course they
can't play at the same time).

Eventually, we could have a global high score board, where we have a
server that keeps track of top 100 (or so) of ALL Barfight player scores.
