I'd call that more than a "little" random casting

Good gods man, I had just asked that in the other wm folder, I still wonder if Wythor would admit (to a estimated number, doesnt have to be exact for PAFO reeasons) to just how many base non custom colors there are.

Thanks for sharing though

Sayeth The Wythor:

>Currently there are 54 basic colors to choose from, and 7 'prefixes'. That's a total of 432 potential colors without considering the custom ones.

Also Sayeth The Wythor:

>Okay, I just finished e-mailing all 57 custom color entrants/winners. If you sent me an entry and haven't received anything by tomorrow, let me know.

Yes...I'm a bit bored. Why do you ask?

hehe, because until you posted all of them/most of them I was trying to get the motivatation to just start casting p h until I saw them all, least for a hr or so until I get tired. :-/

I know there are no better colors out there for Elizz than hers, even if Wythor used the base color (steel grey) as one instead of say plain old grey ;-P
But I have a couple other wms that I didnt enter into the 'original' contest so as to try to keep it fair for others, least in my view, so I need to figure out colors for them.

But thank you dear for the info on what the master Wythor saidith, it helps a bit, now I can ponder the list while at work.

I added more between the time I wrote that and the release of the cantrip.

yeah, I counted 13 pre descripts & 63 colors from the list that Kilan shared.

But it brings me now to another question Wythor, he listed brackish brown & obsidian black & charcoal black, (just a couple I tested) but failed to cast them. Got some message about brackish, obsidian & charcoal couldnt be cast, it seems to affect any of the colors with two word descripts as it wont work for steel grey or storm grey also.

Are these eggs? bugs? something else like non-specific castable?

And no, I didnt put anything else infront of them like sparkling.

There are colors that can only be gotten randomly. I know the two word colors can be cast, because I've done both storm grey and blizzard blue-white myself by choosing them.

Meant to mention that sooner.

There is some oddness with specific casting some colors.

Kilan, try the different pieces of those colors that don't work. Some... again some will work if you say gesture glistening instead of the full name.

I believe it was Kilan who found one of the others, a rather 'lively' pattern you'd expect to see in the British Isles.

I was said that black is not a color. For "reasons"

Also, I am noticing PH does not like triple word used. Basically you gotta figure out the color in a 2 word or maybe even less.

Like Obsidian black is just obsidian. Since obsidian itself is black, the code will automatically use black as the description.

Though obsidian blue would be kinda cool.

Obsidian is not always black, which is why the need for "obsidian black".

>>There is some oddness with specific casting some colors.

Each color (and prefix) is designated by one 'keyword'. Obsidian black's keyword is obsidian, brackish brown's keyword is brackish, charcoal black's keyword is charcoal, etc.

When you try casting the cantrip with two words, it compares the first word against the 'prefix' words and the second word with one of the base colors. When you type 'gesture brackish brown' it's trying to find the brackish prefix color, but there isn't one. Use two words if you want a prefix color and a base color, one word if you want just the base color.

Thanks Wythor,
I thought I had played with them as one word attempts, but I could have shortened them or misspelled them due to otherplace issues so probably my fault as to why mine didnt work.

If I get more time in the next couple days I'll try mine again, of course Kilan or someone else will probably bet me to it (grins broadly)

Thanks for the info though, preciate it.
