Me too, wtg.

My kids are doing it, so it gives me a reason to ping them with my daily score.

Me too, although I generally can't get to genius without looking at the hints (the ones with numbers of words for each first two letters) and then I usually can't get to Queen Bee without looking at the hints in the comments. Still fun though!

Awesome! Do you ever do letterboxed? That one is harder for me, Some days the words just come tome, other days I can’t get them at all!

I don't think I know what letterboxed is, although I feel like I've heard the name. Where is it? NYT?

I'll have to take a look... I'm not good with hard though, I only do the NYT crosswords on Mondays and Tuesdays.

How do you share with those groovy colored boxes with scores?

I just tried it for the first time, got the word on try 3 but was super lucky, because I'm not very good at those types of games.
