I thought this would be a ranking using crawled data on the web… kind of disappointed.
1. White 2. Black 3. Colours (mostly blue) Still disappointed?
Yep.

#12Reminds me a bit of Colourlovers[0]. That website is unfortunately rather bloated though.
Obviously, the best color is #BADA55

#13Nice idea, but the name doesn't quite fit the game ... I would expect to be able to vote for my favourite color, this is more like a "color election"
That won't give you a ranking in practice - you'd get 90% of colours receiving 0 votes so there's no way to distinguish them. I think the output of this game would be more interesting to analyse.

#15awesome. Maybe make the ranks and wtf buttons more visible.
Thanks, I clicked about 50 to 100 times and waiting for a final result...

#16Just a heads up, if you're using any dark mode extension you'll want to disable it for this site. (op, probably worth getting your site added to the global dark mode list)

#17The contrast with the text that shows the hex code seems to interfere with my judgement. Perhaps leaving out the text, or showing it in smaller text on the bottom could help a tiny bit. But I suspect monitor quality/calibration has a larger effect.

#18It's a nice toy, but I doubt its practical value as in design you deal with color palettes, not standalone colors. I might be wrong, but my gut feeling is that "the most popular" color wouldn't necessarily end up as a part of the most popular palette, or even in top 5.

#20I clicked on the right door about 10 times and the left door about 10 times but did not receive any car or a goat in any of them.
