[Archers] Open challenge for H-o-r-s-e

[Jonathas]

I'll probably regret it, and get my ass whooped, but I'll answer your
challenge!  Lets see, which side of the longbow did the arrow go one???

One question, what is the max score for the -E-.  The rest of the ends max
out at 10, but -E- was intended to be a "double" for the speed round so
actually allows for a max of 20.  SO, 10 or 20 arrow max for -E-?  Why,
cause other then the pure luck shot, I'm betting that is what my score will
be for a 1.5" circle!
