There is considerable debate about whether {{word|HALEST}} should have been allowed in Round 6. Dent allowed it under the rule whereby all monosyllabic adjectives can take the -EST prefix, but its actual existence is questioned. This is particularly controversial as, had {{word|HALEST}} been disallowed, Carol would have won the game 87 - 81.
