The problem is that I will be more likely to read a message that invokes "thegreekdog" than a message that invokes "cyan" or "teal." I try to avoid referring to players by color (and I don't always succeed). In any event, when you have 20 or 50 or 100 games going at once, it can get confusing and time consuming to figure out what player people are referring to.

I have the opposite problem in that it's easier to call people by their colour in that specific game, then by a name when they change colour in the next game you have. (so when you're playing a series of 4-5p games with the same people)

You don't hunt? Then how do you mate?

Murderer? You mean well fed non vegetarian. Vegetables is food for tasty food and if we were meant to graze our eyes would be on the side of our heads.

So CYAN it is!


I thought this was the case with the lower orders anyway.

Yeah. Remember that time I was sitting for one of my many multis and I was dissing on you and referred to you as "green". You did seem to cry pretty loudly. Good times!

I just put a gg note in Game 9339979 for you. :)

You know what, it does bother me! This is clearly profiling! Cyan is cyan and teal is teal:

How barbaric that we group things that look alike together! :o

Teal is clearly darker than cyan. End of discussion.

Teal is a deep bluish-green color; a dark cyan

why don't we just change teal and gray to black and white and have this discussion ended? "oh but we wont be able to see black and white!" that's what color codes are for.

I didnt think a man such as yourself would use color codes? you know because you have to make an extra click and look at that extra character next to your troops.

what i meant about that bit about being a man is i really don't care what the colors are....there more important things than trying to decide the correct name for frigging blue but teal is the simplest it gets with blue already taken otherwise it would be frackin blue anyway ill use the code if i need to.

wouldnt expect any of this from a brony would you? =P

I think that players should refer to that colour as RGB(102,204,255). That's the most exact way to name it :lol:

Yes, because it's not "cyan" or teal, it's aquamarine (just ask the Crayola crayons I grew up with) :!:

You have a shirt on in your pic at this moment. Also, it's bluish, which is kind of teal. OH SNAP.
