To my knowledge, there are at least two players who played a perfect game (solved every single puzzle), and at least three (myself included) who have played a "perfect-minus-one" game.
Any of you fans out there have some "census" information on how many players fit into each of those two populations, and when their appearances were?

I know of at least two who made a total clean sweep. Shawn Anton from early S23 and Jeremy Setty from early S26.
You were awesome last night!

Another total clean sweep was December 13, 2017. Matt DeSanto ( mfdesanto) from December 26, 2014 had a main game sweep (and broke the mainframe record), but lost the Bonus Round. October 26, 2011 also had a Bonus Round loss and a main game sweep. For near-main game sweeps in Bonus Round wins, this happened with Emily on October 17, 2019 and Robert ( MarioGS) on March 25, 2016.

October 26, 2011 - Brandon sweeps the maingame, loses a $35,000 BR.April 5, 2011 - Lauren sweeps the maingame, wins $30,000 in the BR.November 7, 2008 - Vili sweeps the maingame, wins $30,000 in the BR.September 21, 2005 - Shawn wins $25,000 in the BR.
