ETA: since my position lends itself nicely to the trend developing in posts below (added here to avoid using another page 1 slot):

On the board. Always wish for slightly crunchier week 1s.

Really hoping for Olympics this summer for sure! Nice breezy Week 1, which gives me plenty of time to attempt to be constructive this weekend!

Then they wouldn't be week 1s...the beauty of Matt's progression is that dopes like me can get week 1s.

I have beamed up! I don't know of a song with my leaderboard number (67), but I'm told it was a pretty good year!

Edit: Found one, good song too!

Beam me up. It only took less than half an hour and there were already 80 ahead of me on the board.

Wow, I had it solved (assumed) but wanted to finish grid, apparently that was about a 20 place difference. Hope this wasn’t a trap - but I doubt it.

Week 1 does not require a very strong beam, but up I go.
Tell Ross I was looking for Easter eggs but couldn't find any.
