Were you inspired by Lucy's hair?



A 1980 film (also a nice grey-green colour I wouldn't mind on my walls )



Or a regal angelfish that shares it's name with this vibrant yellow colour

Yappan - googles 'colours begining in y', yeah me too! And IMO it is a very ugly colour to boot!



Or were you just firing off any word that began in Y?

So maybe Violet wasn't so bad after all as, unfortunately for EN, he didn't even managed a HEEPS so is giving up joint second. Can he recover?

wrestlemaniac and aaronjennings on the other hand have been faffing about our top 10 slowly climbing for a while... is this a stealth move?

EEFGGFEDCCDEED leads the way by a head, with beakerjoe a nose in front of cee_jay for third.

With 34 players and only 13 points in the top 6 it's all to play for.

Did this colourful character inspire you?

I think your Wiki is broken if it's giving you those as colours :pac:

Most folk'll never lose a toe,
But then again, some folk'll
Like Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel!!!!!

First.... to talk himself out of the running: wrestlemaniac! :pac:
A very valid choice but almost among the zebras in points!

Then there were 5...

Next up we have beakerjoe getting 7, which would take him ahead, except there are better sheep options remaining!

Zucchini - 7
Also Starring LeVar Burton
beakerjoe

Then there were 4....

There are two options left and remaining players split evenly between them (which if you are very fast at logic means you can work out at least one of the loser ups)...

Also Starring LeVar Burton

I was doing so well at the half-way point, joint leader... and then all the cheaters prospered with their NAVY-BLUE and it was all downhill for those of us who took the honest route...

Also anyone who didn't pick Razzmatazz and/or Yabbadabbadoo is dead to me... ***checks notes*** that's pretty much everyone...

Congratulations to EEFGGFEDCCDEED, who funnily enough started with an Ace!

And sharing our podium... cee_jay and beakerjoe!




Mam added to her spoon collection, I brought a selection of hard carved items to choose from!



I also gave her a plate of Mac n Cheese as he extra special surprise




And in other random facts...

aaronjennings is off to go shred dandelions wearing a pair of denim jeans :pac:

Kathleen will be sad to know that, depspite picking the right bridal shades, if EN had not decided to amend some entries she would have beaten him!

Also, (unless I've analysed this wrong) Homer is the only one to get 20 sheep, 19 was the next best score even on the podium, so consolations Homer, you are a winner in another way!

Homer's sheep factory:


I had planned to arrange a shades of white bingo for Zaph and kindred, but alas time got the better of me...

Thank you all so much for taking part in my first ever game as host! One slight hiccup but we got there!
These reveals are harder work than you think (maybe Alphabet wasn't such an easy first task... 26 answers is a lot to get though! :pac:)
