    Hi @josiahsams,
    
    I played a little with this and it seems like it would be rather easy to 
get both rowspan and sorting working using jQuery's table sorter plugin: 
https://mottie.github.io/tablesorter/docs/index.html
    
    After I added the necessary code, all I needed to do was add 
`class="tablesorter-childRow"` to the child rows and the plugin sorts things 
correctly.
    
    Would you be willing to take a stab at using that to sort the table 
instead? I really don't like losing the link between the app and its attempts.
    
    There might be some added complexity to do things correctly; for example, 
if I understand correctly, my quick hack only sorts based on the most recent 
attempt's information, so for example when sorting based on start time, the 
sort order wouldn't be correct.
    
    Another approach is to remove sorting altogether. Since sorting is based on 
just the current page, and the current page doesn't really have that many 
entries, sorting isn't super useful to start with.
