Knew yellow right away but never would have guessed the 4th one so it was last. The nerd in me knew purple right away too.

I think this is the worst I’ve ever done. After I went for β€œthe red herring”, I kept on that theme.

I knew 3 of them immediately and the 4th was an educated guess that paid off.

Blue was the only one I got. Same as you, I knew (or "knew" as one of the "knows" came from watching the first season of Fallout on Prime) three of them and the fourth was a guess that paid off. On the third try. So I didn't have much margin for error afterwards.
