I don't think we could lose anymore activity DJ ha, we're pretty much at the low end of the spectrum already.

I was just freeing up variables, no reason in particular. That's why I said you could keep the score variable that you had.

It was slow as molasses when I posted in the java help section. Then you guys took down the IRC and it was/is fine.

For one thing I would simplify all the variables you really only need 3 for this project. This should simplify your code and help you follow whats going on easier. I think you are getting some variables confused.
Sum, lowest and number of entries.

In your code, it looks like lowest is never actually given a value, except for when you initialize it. That's your 0 as your first println. You have low = lowest, switch it to lowest = score;

Nemo really had it spot on in his thinking. By setting the lowest value to one greater than the highest possible answer, this automatically makes the first entry entered the first lowest number. Then you simply have to check the incoming score against the lowest and if it is lower than the lowest value set the lowest value to this new value. Which is along the same lines as I think you were thinking, but his saves you some code.  I would just keep adding the scores to the total and then subtract the lowest when it comes to printing the results. But we all do stuff differently.

Edit: I modified your code, it's quick and dirty but it should fix your problems. Your score variable could be kept, I just took it out.
public class count {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

       int lowest = 0;
       int total = 0;
       int numEntries = 0;

       String tempScore = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter your test score (negative to exit):");
       lowest = Integer.parseInt(tempScore);
       total += Integer.parseInt(tempScore);
       numEntries++;

       while (true) {
       tempScore = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter your test score (enter a negative number to exit):");
       if (Integer.parseInt(tempScore) < 0) {  
               break;
       }
       else{
                       if (Integer.parseInt(tempScore) < lowest) {
                               lowest = Integer.parseInt(tempScore);
                       total  += Integer.parseInt(tempScore);
                       }
                       else {
                       total  += Integer.parseInt(tempScore);
                       }
       }
       numEntries++;
   }
       total = total-lowest;
    System.out.println("Lowest Score:" + lowest);
    System.out.println("Number of Total Entries: " + numEntries);
    System.out.println("Total:" + total);  
    System.out.println("Average:" + (double)total/(numEntries-1));


// System.out.println("your average of the test scores minus the lowest score is: " + total);
}
}

I agree that Sony took it too far. They are trying to set an example of what can happen if you hack their console. I also dont agree with the court system allowing for all this information to be handed over to Sony, over what seems to be rather vague arguments for doing so.

However as of late the Anonymous kiddies are getting to serious. They were asking for the kids names/information and addresses to Sony executives. The mentality that its ok to go after someone's kids is sick. Anonymous defending the people started out as a noble cause, now they seem to be taking stuff to far. A lack of maturity is evident and it's sad. I'm glad to see some of the older Anonymous people speaking up and going public with their distaste for recent acts.

Here are the Mario sprites, obviously they look a lot like Luigi. Mario is actually a pixel smaller height wise. You could use the same death sprite for mario and luigi as well as the pulling sprites if you want to save some space.

April fools...you guys almost had be going for a sec.
