Now here's a good one for you: I have a game of Gauntlet in which
I am playing the Valkyrie. So far, I am down to level 90, have
amassed over 500,000 points, and have over 10,000 health (and
increasing almost constantly it seems). What I want to know is:
is this is unusual? Has anyone else managed to do the same or
similar? Is it just a feature of the game that you occasionally
get invincible characters? If so, I can see why they never
included a high score table - it would be too depressing :-)

(BTW, I didn't play continuously down to level 90 - I've been
playing that game for about a week now. When I get bored, I go
back to it and add another 10 levels to it. I think I'll give up
on it soon... :-)

See ya
