score board

[Captain Mostly]

are there any straight-forward tutorials on putting together a score-board for a game anywhere that I could crib un-ashamedly?

[Scummbuddy]

would this be on a gui that is always shown or not?  We can help. Its not that hard.

I wanted it to be on a seperate screen, so that at the end of the game, people will able to see who'd got the top three high scores...

I guess I could use a gui to display it (if I make sure it's only visible on that screen)...

I'm just not sure how to:
A) allow players to enter their names
or
B) keep the information between plays of the game (i.e. write the information to a file... let alone get it back!)
