title: Scoreboard in a simple guessing game
body: <p>Below is the code to my guessing game.</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to implement a scoreboard which is shown after a player enters their name. The scoreboard is supposed to save the variables <code>playername</code>, <code>count</code> and <code>totalTime</code> as long as the application is running. </p>
  
  <p>It is also supposed to sort by amount of guesses (lower amount of guesses = higher on scoreboard).</p>
  
  <p>If two players had the same amount of guesses, it then sorts by which had the faster time. I've tried making an arraylist without any luck. I'm trying to get the index to increment by 1 every time the game resets, so the variables aren't overwritten by new ones.</p>
  
  <p>I am also having trouble getting the arraylist to accept a long and string.</p>
