I was just wondering what are some ways that you guys have polled to see if the player should be rewarded with a 1-up? The way I came up with is limited to how many extra men can be obtained:

It gives a free man at 20,000, then at 50,000 and every 50,000 more thereafter until 1 million. After that, the player would receive no more extra men. In the game we're finishing up right now, it's highly doubtful that the player will get to 1 million points, even with successive playthroughs after beating the game the first time (each time you loop the game the enemies become more difficult).
I was just wondering what ways some others have come up with to check when the player needs a 1-up when going by score?
