Moiety Colors: Wow

[Throne3d]

If we do symbols, I might want a carmine-colored theta? Or maybe a small version of my avatar. I'm not sure, possibly something else.

I'm not sure about a secondary color, but possibly chartreuse? It's a bit bright/glaring, though, so I'd probably want a darker version, or an even darker version.

It might also be a bit similar to Teceler's, but then I guess that's what my primary, Carmine is for.

Bright and kinda ugly:
██ Kuuskytkolme: Lime, #99C534
██ RoboticLIN: Venom, #728C00
██ Throne3d: Chartreuse (Secondary), #7FFF00
██ Teceler: Forest, #228B22
██ Diaeresis: Moss, #006000
██ Alicorn: Green, #00BF80

With less glare:
██ Kuuskytkolme: Lime, #99C534
██ RoboticLIN: Venom, #728C00
██ Throne3d: Chartreuse (Secondary), #6AD500
██ Throne3d: Chartreuse (Secondary), #60BF00
██ Teceler: Forest, #228B22
██ Diaeresis: Moss, #006000
██ Alicorn: Green, #00BF80

Playing with secondary colour ideas:

Colour key listings:
███ Alicorn: Green, #00BF80 (Cerulean, #007BA7)
███ Kappa: Purple, #8040BF (Indigo, #602080)

Daily report entries:
worth an oat, Oat (███) in Peace (███)

Or maybe something with ⬤⚫ (● if we ever want tertiary colours), like:

Colour key listings:
⬤⚫ Alicorn: Green, #00BF80 (Cerulean, #007BA7)
⬤⚫ Kappa: Purple, #8040BF (Indigo, #602080)

Daily report entries:
worth an oat, Oat (⬤⚫) in Peace (⬤⚫)

Speak now if any of the colourful blobs fail to display on one of your devices...

Ookay, I totally failed to think of how my colors would appear next to each other.

Chartreuses

███ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Chartreuse, #7FFF00)
⬤⚫ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Chartreuse, #7FFF00)

███ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Chartreuse, #6AD500)
⬤⚫ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Chartreuse, #6AD500)

███ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Chartreuse, #60BF00)
⬤⚫ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Chartreuse, #60BF00)

That's a bit ugly.

Maybe Palatinate? Or Cinnabar or Khaki?

Other colors

███ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Palatinate, #682860)
⬤⚫ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Palatinate, #682860)

███ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Cinnabar, #E34234)
⬤⚫ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Cinnabar, #E34234)

███ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Khaki, #C3B091)
⬤⚫ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Khaki, #C3B091)

... Palatinate is probably a bit too close to Kappa's. Cinnabar might be a bit close to carmine and the other reds.

I'd probably prefer Palatinate as my secondary, but since it looks rather close to the others, Khaki is probably better.

The nice thing about secondaries is you don't need your secondary to be extremely distinct from other people's secondaries or primaries, as long as your entire "flag" isn't easily confused with anyone else's.

... That is a very good point!

Well, so long as other red-moietied people don't decide they really want purples similar to palatinate, carmine-palatinate is probably my choice:

███ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Palatinate, #682860)
⬤⚫ Throne3d: Carmine, #960018 (Palatinate, #682860)

But if other reds do decide they want purples like that, I'm okay moving to khaki.

Emoji are evil.

I’m not necessarily disagreeing, although I expect my reasons for thinking that aren’t the same as yours. But what I said is pretty similar to symbellas. Why do you do those if emoji are evil?

[MaggieoftheOwls]

Maybe Alicorn could be green/green and Kappa purple/purple? idk I'm just really not comfortable with the idea of Alicorn's and Kappa's moieties changing, moreso than anyone else's but since I'm not either of those people it's not really my decision...

[Alicorn]

I don't mean, "nonstandard characters are evil", I mean, "colorful symbols that don't display consistently across platforms are evil".

[Kappa]

I wouldn't consider adding a secondary colour to my moiety to be "changing" it. I'd still call myself purple. I'd just be a better-disambiguated purple.

[jalapeno_dude]

Having your secondary color be the same as the primary totally does work; I'd sort of assumed that that would be what the glowficcers with long-running continuities (e.g. Alicorn, Kappa, Aestrix, Marri, AndaisQ, ...) would do, but of course there's no reason they have to or anything.

EDIT: Kappa, the first of the symbols in this line (which seems to be this) is not displaying correctly (but it is in the appropriate color!) in either Firefox or Chrome for me:

Or maybe something with ⬤⚫ (● if we ever want tertiary colours)

The other two are fine though.
