Multiple Unique Values Across Worksheets in Google Sheets

I rarely use spreadsheets, but I thought creating a workbook for a contest would be really helpful. I am not sure if what I am asking is possible without a custom function. I am grateful for any and all help that may be offered.

I am trying to make a template that keeps track of a weekly writing contest. Each week is scored independently and then added up at the end of the month. I wanted to have a sheet that keeps track of the grand total. I thought I could do a UNIQUE() search of each worksheet and have it output a single column. As per this answer I've tried

=UNIQUE({'Week1'!B2:B,'Week2'!B2:B,'Week3'!B2:B,'Week4'!B2:B})

This pulls unique values for each sheet, but lines them up in multiple columns. I was hoping to just get all of the usernames in column A, and then use a lookup formula to add up the totals from each week in column B. Here is the Proof of Concept workbook if anyone can take a look.

Again I appreciate any and all suggestions or directions to get this to work. If it can't be done I can just go to manually tabulating totals, but I was hoping to streamline my workflow.
