In the week of Outrageous, he said next week's word would be exotic. I know I'm not the only one who read that...There should be no surprise that it is the word if people are following protocol...just saying...I haven't entered yet, but may. I have to think on it.

No worries. I totally understand. No reason not to follow the protocol. This week's posting shook things up quite a bit.
:) No doubt...It'll be interesting to hear the point behind it...
I feel part of the point was to deliver a message. The message being to think for yourself. No guidelines, no drama, no conditions on the word. I feel the effect was a lack of organization, understanding, and misdirection.
Eventually, people took notice. ashleykhalila, for example, took matters into her own hands while other people followed. Others, followed the guidelines of the week prior. Either position, in the case of this week, became acceptable. The contest runner, instead, became a contest participant. People evaluating the articles were met with a challenge also. Instead of becoming habituated on one word, now they needed to adapt to every word introduced.
It's making for an interesting contest.
