Spelling Bee #36 has 48 required words worth 190 points, with 1 pangram (1 perfect, using each letter once) and 13 rarer bonus words that score but don't count toward the maximum. 20 of the words are four letters long (1 point each), and the longest is ROUNDWOOD at 9 letters. Words starting with B are the biggest group (19). Genius needs 133 points, which is 70% of the maximum; Queen Bee means every required word. Because the thresholds are shares of this hive's own total, they differ from day to day, so the table below is specific to #36.
