A well-targeted Week 1.

And look at you there at lucky number 7!

I'm kicking myself that I didn't see the email until 5min after I received it. Would have been #1 (with an asterisk for the head start).

Beam me up to a personal speed record. Wasn’t protecting a streak so did not hesitate to submit before finishing the grid.

Happy Fourth everyone!

Got it. Some funny stuff on the leaderboard this week.

A nice straightforward week 1. Happy 4th to all!

Matt fixed it. I've seen that happen before.

I had sent my answer in at about the same time, and when I didn't see my screen name up there, I sent Matt a quick email saying "PLEASE tell me I'm not the one who did that!" I showed up in the next refresh, and that solver was still listed a minute before me. Whew!

Beam me up! Thank goodness for Week 1.

Whew! That means it wasn’t me either. Did someone forget to type in their user name?

Done and done. Nice easy week 1. Now what?

Solved. I woke up at 9 AM PDT (I’m a night owl) and saw that the puzzle had come out early. When I submitted I got a strange message and was afraid I had screwed something up, but I was the last confirmation in the 12:35 EDT batch. Everyone have an enjoyable, but safe, 4th.

Solved & submitted.

HAPPY FOURTH, muggles, both here and expatriated!

Beam me up. Didn't notice the early release, but after rushing last month's week 1, I took my time to make sure this time.

On the board. Finished WSJ yesterday. Now just waiting for Tuesday's MMMM....

Beam me up! Truly a Week 1 -- I could guess at the answer after only a dozen or so entries. Happy Fourth, all!

Got it; nice to solve an easy one for a change.

Beam me up. Nice and easy week 1.

Happy 4th, everyone!

Solved. I read my husband the first theme answer and he got the meta. I should have submitted without finishing the grid. I could have been number one just for once!
