If you must choose, then out of Yellow, Magenta and Cyan…

  1. Which one looks the most like an in between of two primary1 colors?
  2. Which one looks the least like an in between of two primary1 colors?
  3. Which one looks the most like one of the primary colors?
  4. Which one looks the most white?
  5. Which one looks the most black?

I’m asking, because I want to know if people see colors the same way as I do.
If my “red” is your “green” I expect different answers.

1 Primary colors are Red, Green and Blue.

    1. Yellow
    2. Cyan
    3. Cyan
    4. Yellow
    5. Magenta, by a hair over cyan

    In my mind, I’m lumping in cyan as a shade of blue and magenta as a shade between purple and red. Yellow for 4 since I could imagine magenta and cyan text being legible whiteboard marker colors, but not yellow.

    Edit: ran through again on an OLED display after a crappy TN panel on the first run. Same answers but with a larger margin for 5.

          Could you imagine someone else lumping it with either of the two colors?
          And if so, which color would you consider more likely that person lumping it in with?
