I have this line in my score file.  I made number 4 on the list.


4 4122  boozer-W quit on dungeon level 7 while already on Charon's boat.


This is a strange entry.  No Hp entry or Max Hp entry.

I was loosing to a beatle.  I quit during a 'MORE' while I had fainted due to
hunger.  The beatle was killing me as I slept.  I quit with a pending MORE on
the screen and got the Charon's boat message.

Any ideas??
