Parasaurolophus

I know it's a genus.

Langue_doc

Good morning!

Pangram and QB. Last words yesterday were infill, infilling.

swatch/humidor

Happy solving!

cathwen

Good morning!

QBABM yesterday—last word fiddling—and a quick QBABM again today. 

LB:  In a reversal of Langue_doc's 2fer, I had humidors-swatch.  I have a 2fer today as well. 

Happy puzzling!

QBw2LL to remind me I had forgotten to enter flood at the beginning. LB swatch-humidor.

Happy solving!

Parasaurolophus

Very quick GWP this morning.
I know it's a genus.

Good morning!

I'm a bit past genius with pangram today.  I think I have 3 words left.  Congrats on your QBABY again today, cathwen! Got to QBABM yesterday! Woo! I think offing was my final word.

I guess no one got the schmofficial LB solution? I had watch-humidors, but better would be the ring swatch-humidors (or humidors-swatch), I guess.  I don't remember what symbol I was using for rings.  Maybe just listing as three words like swatch-humidors-swatch.  Oh well, who cares.  Congrats on another today, cathwen!

Happy solving!

Langue_doc

Good morning!

Pangram and above genius; I'm afraid that there's another pangram lurking in there. Last word yesterday was lilt--I think this was the easiest puzzle so far.

hybrids/sawlike; couldn't find a mate for whiskey(s)

Happy solving!

Good morning!

Genius with pangram today so far, but it took me a while to get there.  Yesterday my last word was lulu.

LB:  I had whisker-readably. The second word was one of those desperation tries that you don't think will be accepted, but it was.  I found a 2fer today also.

Happy puzzling!

ab_grp

Good morning!

Also got to genius with pangram, which took me a bit to find for whatever reason.  Yesterday I got QBABM with last word highlight.

No luck on LB despite many, many tries.  I definitely was not too near the schmofficial solution (maybe askew), but I was also not near either of your solutions.  Congrats, Langue_doc and cathwen (and on another today)!

Happy solving!

ciao_yall

QB needed the grid to remember glug. LB whisker-readably.

Happy solving!

Langue_doc

Good morning!

Pangram and genius; last word yesterday was taillamp, which I keep forgetting until the very end.

Happy solving!

ab_grp

Good morning!

To genius with pangram and a bit beyond so far.  Yesterday I still had a couple left when we compared but fortunately figured out taillamp just in time.  I always miss that one! I'm glad I'm not the only one who has some trouble with it.  I think I was missing inapt, pipit, plain.  Oh yeah, and pitipat! I guess I am out of practice on that one.

For LB, I had the schmofficial victim-markdown, which appeared to me quickly, with the latter word coming first.  Hopefully today will be a success again.

Happy solving!

ciao_yall

QBw2LL, last word taillamp which I remembered from a previous bee.

LB - nowhere, just 5s and 6s! I saw mark, down, but never thought to put them together. It's those compounds that always get me.

Well, happy solving!

cathwen

Good afternoon!

Last words yesterday were panini and inapt.  Today has been a struggle, but I'm at Beta with the pangram.  I might need help to get to the end.

LB:  I also had victim-markdown.  No solution yet today!

Happy puzzling!

Langue_doc

Good morning!

Above genius, but no pangram yet. Last word yesterday was cirri---corny pangram!

Happy solving, all!
