I remember the score system

I remember the score system on the arcades. Different guys would have their own initials or handle, and this would show up on the machine from time to time, so you always knew who you were trying to beat.

I never really understand scores in adventure games...

Anyway, love the picture of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, I was really into lucasarts adventures back then, and especially loved the type shown here. Zac McKracken and the Alien mind benders, Maniac mansion, etc. Never really got into Kings Quest or its spinoffs. The last Adventure game of that type I remember playing was Maddog Williams before the Army took all my time away. Good times.
