Chartreuse is a very hard color to place in just one of these six shades, imo

I felt the same about vermillion (to me it's a reddish orange rather than an orange-ish red!) but I guess colours are subjective :)

Similarly, I've always considered turquoise to be a greenish shade of blue, which has caused endless arguments with a close friend who sees it as a blueish shade of green :')

I would argue Amber is a bit ambiguous between orange and yellow.

After looking it up, multiple sources claim: "The color amber is a pure chroma color, located on the color wheel midway between the colors of yellow and orange."

I always thought amber was halfway between orange and yellow.

The time is quite generous. You could take off 2 and a half minutes.

I don't see any need for tight time limits on most click quizzes. You can't keep trying different answers.

Surely plums are more often red than purple. The ones I buy certainly are.

Not too hard not too easy: just the good balance and very instructive. Nominated!

As to the score: 34/36 here. I was really confused by Madder which I didn't know the French translation of.
