A Mets fan can never be a braggart. I sincerely apologize for casting that aspersion (good word depending on the hive I guess); nay for outright calling you that.

No offense taken. I feel like posting that stuff encourages/challenges others and love when others do it.
This Mets fan will be at Sunday's game in Port St. Lucie!
deGrom AND Scherzer pitching! (How's that for a brag?!)
since I stopped using the hints I've made it to Genius every day, but no QB yet. I should have plugged away a little bit more yesterday. The words I didn't get are all in my vocabulary.
I forget which day it was (maybe Tuesday or Wednesday) but Panama was one of words. Why do they randomly have proper nouns every once in a while? Either do or don't.

I am actually more annoyed when they don’t accept similar words. Like today - Napa is a place, but it is also a type of cabbage. And Nappa is a type of leather. Neither is acceptable.

I don't care so much if there are words like that not included. If they accepted them, I'd still be just as many words away from QB
True. I think we can all agree that there’s a certain arbitrariness to it.
And for the record, I had become somewhat content to stop at Genius with a Pangram. I blame you, ml1, for reenergizing this thread and upping the ante.
To answer the question about getting to genius again: I find it easier when there are fewer words. I am at amazing today and have found 35 words so far, 179 pts. The scale tells me I need to get to 217 pts. Still a long way to go.

I don't think I have the persistence to go for 60 words today. I still have about 20 pts to go for Genius, and that might be enough for today
so I missed only one word yesterday -- "logroll". I have to say I'm not disappointed because even though I'm familiar with the word, I think I could have spent a year with the puzzle and never found that one.
Today looks like another one with relatively few words. But I have a feeling it contains two or three that are not in my vocabulary.

I missed four words yesterday, including "logroll." I'm okay with that.
made it to genius again, but stopped 7 words short of QB. Glad I didn't press on. I would have likely got 4-5 more, but there were a couple of words I wasn't familiar with. "Coact" and "coxa" are not in my vocabulary. I guess they actually are now
