[net.games.pacman] miss pacman LOW score

    When everyone is talking about high scores on games, my roommate
accomplished something interesting on miss pacman yesterday.
He went for the lowest score possible, with the most fields.
(By avoiding blue ghosts, and fruit).  It was hard to do from the
standpoint of being tempted by all of these points going by.

Here's his low score :  about 46,000   
Number of screens    :  14 1/2
   He got to the second pink field, which means he got 
Act 3: Junior  twice.
   He only ate maybe 3 or 4 ghosts at 200 points each, and
I think he had the misfortune of eating a banana(5000), and a few 
cherries(100).
  Has anyone else ever tried this ?  It certainly is a different
way to play.
