Good morning!

Pangram and above genius. Last word yesterday was natant.

gravesites/suborn

ab_grp, I had to chuckle when I saw one of the hints in Monday's (I think) puzzle!

Happy solving!

ciao_yall

Morning!

QBABM! Last word titan. LB vinegar-robust.

Happy solving!

Good morning!

QBwH for my last word, twilit. I now remember seeing that before. Congratulations on QBABY, ciao_yall! Today I'm beyond genius with the pangram, a few more words to go.

LB: To add to the variety, I had groves-suburbanite.

Happy puzzling!

Good morning!

Got to genius with pangram.  Yesterday we each needed one word but ran out of time.  At least we had team QB! I was missing tannin.  Congrats, ciao_yall!

And congrats on your solutions! No luck for me, again.

Langue_doc, which clue made you chuckle?

Happy solving!

ETA: Got a 2fer on my first try! The roller coaster ride...

ab_grp, the amorous Pepe Le Pew.

QB.

QB.

Haha!! I didn't even think about that.  I was picturing it more as homicidal, but he (or she?) could have been amorous! And congrats on QB!

In case anyone doesn't read the fauna thread, this is in reference to my husband getting chased on campus by a skunk that he initially thought was a cat.

Good morning!

Pangram and just above genius. How and whether I'm going to find the remaining words is a mystery.

Last word was ratatat.

ab_grp, your post about the encounter reminded me of the cartoon character who was meant to be "amorous", which nowadays is considered to be stalking behavior.

Happy solving!

ciao_yall

Morning!

QBwH for my last word diffract. I kept spelling it with one f. LB quickener-rewatch.

Happy solving!

ab_grp

Good morning!

Somewhere past genius with pangram so far.  Yesterday we each almost made it to QB but gave up and had team QB.  I think I was missing farad, frittata, raffia, some of which I usually get (and some of which I never get).

And I also got quickener-rewatch for LB.

Langue_doc, that is a good description!

Happy solving!

Good afternoon!

QBwH yesterday with farad and tariff as my last words. Today I made QBABM!

LB: No solution yesterday—so congratulations to everyone else! I have a 2fer today, though.

Happy puzzling!

Good morning!

Pangram and above genius. QB yesterday with blabby as my last word. Didn't think it was a word, but who knew!

wrought/treacly

Happy solving!

ciao_yall

Morning!

QBwSBB for baldly. Probably could have ABM'd it but was in the mood to finish. LB celt-throughway, cleat-throughway.

Happy solving!

Good morning!

QBABM yesterday, last word bubba. Today I am a bit above genius with the pangram.

LB: wrought-treacly. And I found one fairly quickly today

Happy puzzling!

ab_grp

Good morning!

Somewhere past genius with pangram so far.  Yesterday I also got QBABM.  My final word was laudably.

For LB, I also had wrought-treacly.

Happy solving!

Good morning!

Pangram and genius. Last word yesterday was lubed which I tried out of desperation--didn't think that one got one's car lubed.

judgers/smithy

Happy solving!
