So they just plain skipped the word in the event of an illegal clue and went back to it, just like if they CHOSE to skip it, right? [/quote]
On SUPER PASSWORD? No. An illegal clue meant forfeiture of the big money (but they still got $100 for each word garnered legally).

Well, not just Super Password, but also Password Plus as well, was what the question was referring to. [/quote]
You know, it's funny. I don't recall an instance on P+ where both an illegal clue was given and the correct word wasn't guessed (that's not to say it never happened, just I that don't recall seeing it happen), so I'm not really sure whether going back to that word after the others had been guessed or passed was allowable under the rules. Chris C. would almost assuredly know better than I would.
But we do know that an illegal clue on SP meant contestants were going for a maximum of $900.
