Notes

Color Reference

Color 1: Teal
Color 2: Turmeric
Color 3: Malvin
Color 4: Oxygen
Color 5: Thistle

I’ve opted to switch the lightest color (should have been #1) with the darkest color (should have been #4) in order to get the highest contrast between colors knowing that Malvin would automatically be color 3 (I played around with black and white images). The photo of the colors is in reverse order, for no particular reason.

Clue Releases:

Clue 1 - May 12 - Finished May 18
Clue 2 - May 19 - Finished May 24
Clue 3 - May 26 - Finished May 29
Clue 4 - June 2 - Finished June 5
Clue 5 - June 9 - Finished June 11

This was the most fun I’ve ever had on an MKAL! The clues were doable in the time between and I’m so impressed that joji personally responded to everyone’s pictures and comments as often as she could. Finishing is bittersweet, I’m glad to be done but wish there was more!
