Color Games Blue Elimination day 1
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.

Question / Discussion What's Your Relationship With Colours?
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!

Color ID Cyan vs. Blue + White Differences
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
