Pretty straightforward, as other have said purple just jumped out and was only purple due to wordplay. Reverse rainbow!

Probably should have scored a “purple first” if I’d looked a little closer. But nothing particularly daunting in this one, I thought.

Went for a silly 4th option for purple first (rattler) and then couldn’t distinguish yellow and green.

Tuesday was not as easy as it looks. Plus a sports Americanism.

Pretty easy once I avoided the obvious red herring.

I didn’t get caught by the Batman red herring but there were a lot of possible jokesters which messed me up a couple times.

Pretty straightforward, but I messed up choosing blue vs. green.

Two, actually.

Almost exactly like yesterday, went for a silly 4th option for purple first and then couldn’t distinguish yellow and green. I need to be less lazy and go back to sorting them all out. Did see and avoid the red herring.

Total failure for me today. I got the yellow one after a couple guesses, but things went downhill from there.

This one must have been more up my alley than for most of you. I cruised right through with a straight rainbow.

Wednesday and I fell for the red herring.

Today’s was easy for me. I actually saw blue first, but wasn’t sure.

I didn’t see purple. But i think it’s fairly common for one of the purples to be unlike the others.

Got purple honestly (not leftovers), then put the rest in exactly the wrong order. I’m calling it an inverted rainbow.

Sorted the lot but I’m on a streak of mixing up yellow and green.

It’s Thursday. Today’s puzzle may elicit some conversation. I avoided the Fairy Tale red herring that was not a red herring, and instead crashed head first into a frustratingly misleading Purple.
