I tried the dictionary excercise and didnt get exactly what i had expected... I never got the positions right because every word that came into my head was not in the dictionary...

At first i got frustrated but then i figured that this stuff is working, just not the way that it is supposed to.

All i want to know is if anyone else has had these results or am i the first?

LOL that was my experience too. I was hitting targets but still doubted it so my mind said ok here's some words and they weren't in the dictionary. I tossed the book. It was only later that I realised that my mind was trying to live up to my expectation... that it probably doesn't work for me. Cool, what the mind does for you when you think about it.

I get weird results... just did the dictionary game... I guess a word's prefix right, and the position right, but the page number off. Also I get a weirdo sensation when I PR... like the bold words stand out, big time. I see like a skeleton of bold words in my periperhal vision. Weird I guess, still playing around.

I had mixed results when I did the dictionary game, most notably, a great number of words I guessed ended up being guide words, as opposed to being somewhere in the middle of the page where I anticipated. Many words ended up being directly opposite from where I guessed they'll be (i.e. upper left vs. lower right.)
