I see now that it depends on how the game makes use of KScoreDialog. In Killbots, for example, where the dialog is reused between showings, canceling does not clear the highscores from the list, so if one new score is cancelled, but following that a score is accepted, then both will be written to the file. Maybe the KScoreDialog should reload the scores from the file everytime Cancel is hit to fix this.
