Problems with modifying lists

[tam0009]

I have a class that I posted here. It's called FileReader. It is supposed to read in a file and generate a list of integers. It may be useful to know that the list is a list of high scores and any time a score is passed the lowest score should be replaced and then the list should be sorted and reversed. Anyway the problem I think I'm having is that when I pass the list a high score through the method called addScoreToList it isn't adding the score. The other option that may be happining is that I'm not outputing the list elements correctly. (I dont think thats it though) . Can anyone see who I'm doing wrong?

FileReader()
      {
         file.open("init.txt");
         file.close();
        //checks to see if the initiate file exists
         if(file.fail())
         {
            file.clear(ios::failbit);
            ofstream myfile ("init.txt");
            if (myfile.is_open())
            {
               string playerName;
               cout << "Enter player name: ";
               cin >> playerName;
               myfile << playerName << endl;
               for(int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
               {
                  myfile << "0" << endl;
               }
               myfile.close();
            }
         }
         file.open("init.txt");
         getline(file, name);
         while(!file.eof())
         {
            string line;
            getline(file, line);
            //converts the string "line" into a c string
            //then into an integer then adds it to the list.
            highScores.push_back(atoi(line.c_str()));
         }
        //orders the scores in descending order;
         highScores.sort();
         highScores.reverse();
      }
   
    /**

OK nevermind solved my own problem. Heres what I changed

public:
      bool addScoreToList(int score)
      {
         if(score > *highScores.end())   {
            highScores.pop_back();
            highScores.push_back(score);
            highScores.sort();
            highScores.reverse();
            return true;
         }
         return false;
      }

Ok I'm changing the list, but instead of me replacing the lowest score w/ the new one. The list is just seeming to get larger and larger. It seems to be happening either when the file is saved or when it's opened.
