NYT Spelling Bee

Good morning!

Pangram and genius, but I think that's it for today. Last word yesterday was teeing.

maximizations/scuba

Happy solving!

QBw2LL, last word was entente. LB was also maximizations-scuba.

Happy solving!

Good morning!

Got the pangram right away, but it took a while to get to genius.  Not a good sign! We had team QB again yesterday.  I think teeing was one I also needed help with.  And is tinning not a word? I think there's one today that used to be accepted but isn't now.  I always missed it, now I found it, and I don't think it's in there anymore.  :-( Maybe I'm wrong.

I also had the same 2fer as you fine folks. 

Parasaurolophus, congrats! 

Happy solving!

Good afternoon!

QB yesterday with help to find tingeing. Darn those alternate spellings!  Today I am at alpha with four words to go for which I will probably need hints.

LB:  No 2fer yesterday!  And none again today yet.  Argh!  Congratulations to those who got one!

Happy puzzling!

Good morning!

QB today. The letters have to be in the right configuration, at least for me, to see the pangram.

Didn't get back to the bee yesterday, so missed a few words--coital, tailcoat, and a couple more. I was surprised to see coital because the bee doesn't accept coition.

Couldn't find a mate for maypole and another word with the y in the middle.

Happy solving!

Good morning! 

I needed 1-letter hints yesterday to find tikka (which was in a recent puzzle) and toolkit.  Today I am at QB-2.

After not finding 2fers the last two days, I did find one today. 

Happy puzzling!

QBwH for tailcoat, tiki, toolkit.

And just 3fers yesterday - got close with loaf-facetime-eponym and a few others.

Happy solving!

Good morning!

Got the pangram and to genius plus a bit so far.  We had team QB again.  I think I needed help with toolkit, tailcoat, iliac, tactic, tactical.  I think I always miss tailcoat, but I should have gotten the latter several of them.  And, after finally remembering ocotillo after missing it every time, it's not in there anymore! ARGH!!!

No luck on LB despite a ton of promising contenders.  Congrats on getting one today, cathwen!

Happy solving!

Good morning!

Four pangrams and well above genius. Last word yesterday was poncho.

grouped/deviant

Happy solving!

Morning!

QB, needed a hint for canyon /facepalm. LB grouped-deviant. Happy solving!

[ab_grp]

Good morning!

Looks like I got all the pangrams and am at genius.  Yesterday we bailed with one word left each but had team QB.  He needed anyhoo, as I suspected, and I needed chancy, which I think I keep missing.

No luck on LB, though I did have grouped and dismissed it in light of what seemed like better contenders.  Congrats on your solutions!

Happy solving!

I'm glad found pangrams are now in bold.

[cathwen]

Good morning!

QB yesterday with 1L hints for ghee and gilt (argh!).  Today I'm at Beta with both pangrams.  Parasaurolophus, I agree that having pangrams in bold is very helpful!  And congratulations on getting all four of them yesterday!

LB:  I did not find a solution for yesterday's LB.  I do have one today, though. 

Happy puzzling!
