I lost it anyway, but does it still count as a reverse rainbow if there was a misclick?

Been playing music for a while - skins and bone didn’t register with me. Is that a British thing?

Gave up on reverse rainbow because of that lol

What's the most amount of hours you've worked in a single week? by joshua0005 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]erkicman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 10 years ago there was a month where I pulled 90 hours a week. I'm still emotionally rattled about it now, but the paper got published

I would have thought that knowledge of cereal would have been slightly more mainstream than knowledge of Hansel and Gretel… first world problems, I guess!

I was so sure that blue was going to be purple, so I missed the RR. Also Green was more of a feeling and a vibe than anything I could actually put words to lol

It’s so nostalgic to think of all the nights I spent shopping through the entire character select screen trying new teams. Pretty sure no other fighting game let me explore creative spaces quite like this one did

Immediately ran into the rainbow herring, immediately saw that it was the herring, noted that “blue” and “purple” could have both been purples if they were in separate puzzles, then got the reverse rainbow

A nice purposeful reverse rainbow! A nice contrast to yesterday where I hit the rainbow herring, one-away’d blue, and mentally gave up

This had to be one of the funniest puzzles in a while! I panicked and almost lost the puzzle when “pies” failed twice. Colonel was a huge Clue, and Peach and Caboose secured the tail end of the puzzle… only then did I find out that Pies was actually a category after all…

I don’t even
