The default location of the score file was intended for a shared high score list (based on trust; the usual approach of setgid "games" won't work for elisp). If $TMPDIR is set, (temp-directory) will be user-specific. If it's changed to a user-specific file, it should probably be ~/.xemacs/tetris-scores or ~/.tetris-scores.
