0 Guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 (edited) great puzzle Thank you. I wanted to do something with colors. I'm sorry, Chacha, rl_socal, and windchime, your answers aren't correct, though the correect answer has already been found and posted. rl_socal, your answer was actually quite close, only off by a few. You got the words right, just not the colors, though some colors were right. For those who only want a hint: There are only 9 colors involved. Spoiler for They are:: red,blue,green,yellow,orange,purple,brown,black,and white. The two patterns use the same colors, they just aren't in the same order.

0 Guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Why only 9 colors? Where's teal, silver, maroon, and gray? Magenta? Puce? Vermilion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 (edited) Why only 9 colors? Where's teal, silver, maroon, and gray? Magenta? Puce? Vermilion? Well, those are the basic 9 colors. The 3 primary and 3 secondary, black and white, the ends of the spectrum, and brown (a mixture of colors), which I added in the end. It would have gotten complicated with all the possible colors I could have done. All colors have a hexidecimal code. It's basically a number for each color. When you change the text color in a reply, the number in the brackets is the hexidecimal number of the color. Like this: {color="#FF0000"}red{/color} replace {} with [] and you get: red FF0000 is the number of the color red(this one, at least). Black is 000000 and white is FFFFFF. That's 16777216 colors total. Yeah, I think it would have been somewhat long with 16777216 colors. Edited June 30, 2008 by Frost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, there is actually very little math involved, just a little with ordering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 the word indigo written in the color orange? No, sorry, neither of those is correct. Also, indigo is not one of the 9 colors used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 the word indigo written in the color orange?

0 Guest Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Wow, you got the colors batgirl! Though not for the reason I had, but logically similar. black blue brown green orange purple red white <- white in yellow yellow <- yellow in white The words were in alphabetical order. The colors were from least to greatest based on their hexidecimal code. Reminds me of a nerdy poem: Roses are FF0000 Violets are 0000FF All of my base Are belong to you. D.

The word brown is in the color green, not brown, and few other colors are the same as the word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
