Pangrams and above genius. QB yesterday, but had to resort to BB for a couple of words.
Happy solving!

Time got away from me yesterday, so just before going to bed I quickly consulted SBB to get my final four words: afoot, fontina, iota, taxon. Today I'm at genius with both pangrams.
LB: No solution yesterday! I kept looking for something with reflexive with no luck. Today I found a 2fer fairly quickly.
Ciao_yall, I hope that your computer does not need an expensive repair (or replacement)!
Happy puzzling!

Past genius with pangrams so far. Yesterday we had team QB. I think I needed help with a couple words I might usually get, like affiant, afoot, fiat.
No luck on LB yet again!
I hope it's just the screen and is not too much money and hassle, ciao_yall!
Langue_doc, we keep looking for him/her, but the tree is a mesquite, and the foliage colors of green and yellow make it hard to spot some of these folks. The sound was very close in the tree, but no luck. We didn't see any birds nearby today, but it was a bit windy.
Happy solving!
