I tried to get to Genius using only words that start with M but couldn't do it. Got to Amazing before I had to use another letter though...

Community comments are running high about young Mr. Ezersky's refusal to include the gannet. It's come up before; I have never heard of him going back and adding perfectly cromulent words to the options. People who own boats are up in arms about vang not being accepted.

Believe me, I was just speaking for myself, not meaning to throw shade at anyone else. To answer your question I think you, Scott, and Pro are all very good spellers.
