Genius, but no pangram. Missed nautili, annuli, and a couple of other words that I knew I had entered.
unfiltered/debacle as well.

QB yesterday with inapt, pinup, and unapt as my last words, thanks to SBB. QBABM today!
LB: I had unfiltered-debacle. Lots of solutions this time!
Happy puzzling!

Got to genius without pangram so far. Yesterday I needed help with unapt. Argh!
For LB I got unbar-reinflicted. I'm glad when prefix/suffix combos are accepted! We had a lot of interesting solutions and new words today!

QBwH for nautili, pinup. LN funic-calibrated which I thought I made up. It took - turns out it's related to the umbilical cord.
Learn something new every day.

Last post by poiuy - April 20, 2024, 07:00:08 PMI am loving the tales of retired military engineer Dads (as was mine). No matter where in the world, the traits and quirks of skilled engineers seem the same.

QBwSBB for the last word, owing—which I could have sworn that I typed right after owning. Today I got to QB, but only with some SBB help.
LB: I had watched-diploidy. No solution yet today.
Happy puzzling!
