Talk:Color Naming Rule/@comment-18396318-20150912203930/@comment-18396318-20150913010036

As the creator, Monty was able to shape the rules around what he wanted, in order to have a colour associated with each name he wanted. The rules we got are the result of that, and Glynda is the only character out of dozens that requires you to use a combination of the rules. So I'm inclined to believe that it's not within the bounds of the rules, and we haven't actually figured out her colour.

We're not the creators, so we can't bend the rules. If the rule can be used that liberally, then it effectively doesn't exist. If we can stretch what qualifies as the colour to a name, then we can come up with potentially infinite ways to do it. In my mind, that defeats the purpose of the intended meaning, and has no place on an informative page on a wiki.

I'll leave that to the wiki staff, but I just don't see why we would acknowledge a rule, only to use methods that subvert its existence. If that was within the bounds of the rule, why would Monty have told us about it at all?
