69 on the first try, 68 on the 2nd try. On the 3rd try I made a serious
attempt and got 93. A few more tries easily getting over 80 each time and
now I am bored with that.

I can only get about 30, but the counter only seems to recognise every 2nd
or sometimes 3rd click. Maybe Java applets are really bad on my
(admittedly slowish) computer?
