Set puzzle scores

Here's my history of scores on the daily Set puzzle. The weekly set puzzle challenge began on April 15, 2006, so the scores input below for the Saturday challenges are complete. (The scores listed are no longer complete: TypePad no longer allows one to list as many results. Don't know if they'll ever correct this.) The weekly contest changed to a contest among individual participants (rather than between sites) on December 9, 2006. The individual weekly winners are recorded from that. I started recording my Set puzzle times on March 1, 2006.
