    Hey, I cant play any of the color games on JB and I'm legit colorblind.

    However I realise that everyone uses this as an excuse, so I am wondering if its possible to prove to help me in the future.

    Thanks

    How? I don't think we can make exception list for colour games for people who are colour blind and expect all wardens to memorise the list.

    I think the best thing you can do at this point is to try taking some CTs with you. That was my strategy for talent day at least. :p

    I think that color blind and normal people will behave same in the color game because you just gotta see the color shade appearing on the display and go on the matching platforn

    No. It's not like that. I think they cant identify the colour on the display. e.g. The display will be showing yellow but they wont recognise it as yellow but grey instead.. or some other colour.
    Many cope by copying other players.

    Ah I see, half of the color blind are red-green color blind meaning they see red and green as the same color

    PS - sorry if the "color" bothers you guys xd

    Yeah so I am red-green colourblind. but as a lot of us will tell you, it doesnt just mean we struggle with Red and Green. For example on color game today Orange flashed up and I the Orange and Red looked exactly the same... so its literally a 50/50 guess at that point XD

    Well for when there are enough people in the game, just follow the herd. Many maps will give you enough time to do so. Also - as Soul Reaver suggested - you can just try to rebel. I do it with surf and bhop. Granted Im just shit at those games, but sometimes it works.

    its just gonna be a bit harder for u bro

    regardless of which colour blindness you're affected by, the game works exactly the same, unfortunately in your case its a bit harder to differentiate between shade/colours

    I don't think ct's should have to cater to such a niche player base atm (soz lad)
