4 pangrams today. I don't recall ever seeing that many on a single day.
Just got QB!
One word was a complete guess by stringing letters together - not in my vocabulary, until now!

I had the same experience yesterday. At the end, I could have sworn I was looking for one five-letter word, but it ended up being five 4-letter words.

Waul was my guess.

I had bizarrely gotten that earlier but that was also my son’s last word.
And yesterday I was happy just to get to genius. Today is going better but with 15/16 to go for QB, I’m not sure I’ll get there.

Got stuck at 37/142 today.
1 of 2 spellings of nunchuck (nunchuk) kept me from QB yesterday.
Don’t think I’ll ever adjust to that.
Annoying

I only missed 2. If I kept at it I probably would have got "minim". But there's no way I would have realized there was another spelling for nunchuk.

Very annoying, I agree. I missed one of the spellings and "minim."
I missed nunchuk and unkink. I actually got minim before minimum. Oh well...
I'm going to come up one word short today. I'm stumped. And I'm sure when I see the answers tomorrow I'll be missing a really common word.
missed by "fora" yesterday. Feel like I should have got it, but it's one of those words that even though I know what it means, is so uncommonly used, it's not exactly a no-brainer.

Got fora, missed falloff.
Queen Bee for the first time in a long while. I won't post it now because it gives word count and points, but maybe tomorrow.

Great job! I bogged down far away at 19/77.

congrats on your QB I missed it by two yesterday: eightieth (which I should have gotten) and twee (which I never would have gotten)

I remember seeing twee before, that's the only reason I got it. My last word was "whew" which is how I felt after I got it!

Fuggetabout QB today. Struggling to Genius.
I'm just struggling to get to Amazing... You can't win them all. Ha!

Definitely no QB in sight for me either. I struggled to get to Genius, and even managed to squeeze out another 20 points past that, but that's probably it for me for today.
eta: I spoke too soon...just found another word and am now at 26 points over.

today is going to be tough. I was too busy yesterday to spend much time so I didn't even make genius. If I had the time to give it a little more effort I think I would have gotten QB. No words that were unfamiliar.

Kept it in the background and got to 65/336, but I’m done.
Too many words! I quit at amazing...
got QB today. I figured playing regularly would eventually pay off. A couple of words that I probably wouldn't have got, except that they were in a puzzle fairly recently. Today is a good day to go for it. Not many unfamiliar words.
I got "doxxed" but not "doxed." Annoying.
Also, how is "dioxin" not included?

And what about iodide? That should be included, dammit!

Definitely. One of the four is that word. I will not miss it again
