      Look at you being all fancy with more than five words for colors.

      For the same reason it was honestly really hard for me to do that test. It was like those personality surveys where I don’t like any of the options, but I have to pick one

      Yeah, I couldn’t get past this. The turquoise was neither blue nor green but you’re forced to select one or the other.

        I think it mostly comes down to whether or not you call certain colours a “greeny blue” or a “bluey green” I’m much more inclined to say the former for the colours on between the two

    I think that contrast is a big part of this that isn’t really controlled for. During the test, the colors took up my whole screen, so against the black bezel of my phone in my dimly lit room they seemed to look more blue. But at the end when it says “For you, turquoise [color swatch] is blue”, that color swatch was against a white background, and in that context it looked more green to me.

    Had my wife take the test on the same device

      177 hue, bluer than 75% for me.

      I wonder if sitting in front of a blue-hued monitor a lot has an effect? Default color temps tend to skew pretty blue

        176 here, the screen is surely doing a part, also environing colors do change the perception too.

        I was 177 too! It makes perfect sense that it should be at the middle of the two colors not buried in green.

    This is cool, however I don’t like that the result is a fixed value. I don’t think a person could take this test and reliably get the same result. This would be a good situation to use a logistic regression.

      I took it three times, with a spread of five points.

    Turquoise is blue, that’s the rule

    Weirdly, it’s nothing to do with how color forms in our brain (the actual ‘my blue your blue’ thing), only what we call it. So it’s mainly semantics.

    Cool website nevertheless.

    Given the standards of humour around here, I think my blue is a bit further on than most

    177 first try, 176 second. By the last frame each time I had to really think hard whether it was bluey-green or greeny-blue
