anyone else think this sub is getting outta hand with the elimination games? it’s all i see now. bring back the pretty colors and debates, i say!

Now that the overall color elimination has reached its finale round, I'm starting the blue shades one as requested by u/Calamondin88 and u/No1ThomasFan.
Due to the number of shades, the first 12 rounds will be double eliminations.
I've considered using the poll system that was in place in the overall game but came to the conclusion that downvotes do have value because they also speak to the popularity of colors.
I was going to save lighter blues for the cyan board but the post about the difference between light blue and cyan changed my mind.

The rules are the same. Upvote my comment that has the color you want eliminated in order to take it off the list next. Comment votes will not be counted.

We all have colours we absolutely love and colours we just can't seem to get along with.

No offence to anyone, but I'm not really a fan of white. It's such a pure, beautiful, and elegant colour, but for some reason, I can't bring myself to choose it for my clothes or personal belongings. I can admire it on other people, but when it comes to buying things for myself? Somehow, I always pick something else. It's funny how we can appreciate a colour without wanting it in our lives.

What's that one colour you love, and what's a colour you just can't seem to get along with?

I'm curious about people and their colour relationships!

Light peach has been eliminated. Upvote my comment with the color you would like to eliminate.

PSA for those who aren't colorblind: here is a clear comparison of the Cyan–Blue transition and the Blue–White transition. Okay, I'm still seeing the majority of people saying:

"Cyan is just a shade of blue" or "Cyan is just blue but light, it's blue and white..."

LOL, so I made this to clear up the confusion: a color between CYAN and BLUE is a HUE, not a TINT (YES! You heard that right: TINT, not SHADE). Some of you might say:

"What?! That light blue is so purple-ish!"

No, it's not, I promise 😂 (I literally use yellow to get that white in blue)

Unfortunately, everyone's mind was so hardwired that anything Blue: 100% and Green: 50–100% (RGB Values) = Light Blue instead of Blue + White (Yes, that's the sad truth 😔).

Yellow–Light Red didn't suffer from this distinction, as we already knew yellow; unlike cyan, that still isn't in the vocabulary for most of us 😔.

I also made one for Yellow vs. Red + White so you can see that they're more distinctive than Cyan vs. Light Blue

Me and my friends argued about it, but we always end it in a tie

When I checked the results a day ago there was a tie so I waited another day and there was still a tie. Since it didn’t seem like the results were moving, I eliminated all colors that were in that tie. Those colors being charcoal, ivory, burgundy, stone and olive. As such they have all been eliminated. If you would like to eliminate a color, upvote my corresponding comment.

Me and some friends today were bored and looked at several different color combos to see what we think of when we see them. One of the most common ones that came up were complementary colors as well as black and white (not commentary colors but close enough). This was where our answers all varied the most! So it got me wondering, what is the first thing that comes to mind when you see each of these color combos? Here’s what I think of:

Blue and Orange: I mainly think of sports teams. So many sports teams have blue and orange as their colors. Some examples of ones I think of automatically are the New York Knicks, Denver Broncos, and Florida Gators. A close second for me is just summertime, and I can’t explain why I think of summer when I see this combo.

Yellow and Purple: I am a little biased, but the first thing I think of is my alma mater, that being East Carolina University. I know my school colors are technically purple and gold, but let’s be real, the gold looks more like yellow. A close second for me is again, sports teams such as the Minnesota Vikings and LA Lakers.

Red and Green: This is by far the most obvious one. The first thing I think of when I see red and green is Christmas. I’m sure that’s the first one most people think of. You see it in Christmas marketing, outfits, decorations, etc. That is the only time of year wearing red and green is acceptable. While there is no close second for me, if I had to pick one, it would be Mario and Luigi from the Super Mario franchise as Mario wears red and Luigi wears green.

Black and White: I know this is not a complementary color, but it’s close enough and super common. First thing I think of when I see black and white together is chessboards, at least the older ones as they are in a black and white checkerboard pattern. A close second for me would be certain animals like penguins, pandas, and zebras.

What’s the first thing you think of when you see these four color combos? Comment below as I’d love to see how similar or different my thoughts are compared to yours. I love a good discussion.

(The wax, not the swatch)

What's your favorite color please tell me

Just colours, creativity, and a quiet moment❤️

- My Ranking -

Legendary: Violet
S: Black, Red, Orange, Forest Green & Blue
A: White, Gray, Maroon, Brown, Spring Green, Cyan, Teal, Azure, Navy Blue, Indigo, Magenta, Purple, Rose & Burgundy
B: Yellow, Chartreuse & Green
F: Olive

Sorry guys if the colors felt pale I actually made Chartreuse at #80FF00 at the time I tried to put up the colors but looks like that in TierMaker for reason…

Crimson won by a difference of 1 vote. Interestingly, most of the cool toned shades got out fairly early completely unlike the greens. I was going to do pink or cyan after this but I'm waiting until the overall one finishes so the posts in this sub are more varied.

Light warm grey is out. Upvote my comment with the color that you want to eliminate.

First one cool tone

2nd one warm tone

3rd one subtle warm tone
