We could log in to our own account, upload the high score file, and the website could parse the information and store it in a database.

We could then have an overall league table of high scores across the community, and we could see where we stood in comparison to everyone else etc etc.

Thoughts?

I store mine online. Have my "hi" folder in my google drive account so anytime I get a new hiscore it'll automatically upload to the net. Easy way for me to have all my cabinets use the same high scores.

The problem with stuff like that being open to the public is people tend to cheat and ruin things for no apparent reason. The only real alternative we have right now is just high score boards.
