Sort 2.0 (This is not a permanent new sort, but one that produces an alarming group of words, and I want to test it’s efficacy in this case.
For this particular run, if you couldn’t already tell, the whole run is sorted by the watch words, which will get confusing if I try to explain why our almost-red flag word (Village) ends up near the bottom. Village surged 3,300% today, but there were other problems with it that prevented me from declaring the red (or yellow) flags. In fact, there were two separate problems with the word.
“Jackson” was inches away from it’s own red flag, and it was just inches away from a level 1, which makes this a very special word. The only problem is that it can be a location (Mississippi, Wyoming, etc.) or a very common name.
…and then there’s “Morgan.” Hmmmm, just not sure how to address that one. It seems to be out on its own with pretty nice statistics but nothing that stands out as “wow.” Probably the biggest news of all is the continued surging of celestial bodies. Notice how “moon” and “moons” both increase. I was particularly surprised at the plural version increasing much more than the singular version.
Lastly, look at grouping #2. Perhaps our big wave meme is here. Does Village imply a remote place like Hawaii? Remember that Hawaii was in the middle of yesterday’s run, and that alone is significant because it’s never even been in our top tier results. So, is it connected to the definite wave meme today? If so, is all this connected to the “huge wave” meme we’ve been talking about in the other forum threads?
