Candle is associated with Darkness as an antonym (and through an idiom) which seems weaker than Mine which is straight-up dark. That's my thinking.

what's the idiom?

Better to light a candle than curse the darkness.

Hmm, Web and Spy seem likely.

3rd, not sure, something like police? or maybe pound (as a currency, ransomware you have to pay), or boot (reboot? but doesn't specifically fit maware, i don't think).

I don't know, I like the top 2, after that, meh.

Web sounds good.
Happy to guess Spy next.

I feel like Litter, Mouse, or Box could be plausible, in addition to Boot.

scolapasta · « **Reply #1359 on:** May 18, 2020, 05:23:46 pm »

Why Litter? or Box?

Mouse because general computer?

mail-mi · « **Reply #1360 on:** May 18, 2020, 05:25:28 pm »

Web is Blue

Spy is Blue

bitwise · « **Reply #1363 on:** May 18, 2020, 06:58:30 pm »

Litter I was thinking just because I associate malware with junk mail and such. Box is pretty tenuous--just is a term for computer. Mouse in the same vein as that.

What do you think about Boot? I think I like it the next best.

scolapasta · « **Reply #1364 on:** May 18, 2020, 08:25:13 pm »

I'm happy to try boot.

mail-mi · « **Reply #1365 on:** May 18, 2020, 08:28:25 pm »

Boot is Blue

scolapasta · « **Reply #1366 on:** May 18, 2020, 08:30:36 pm »

Woot! PASS

DUMPSTER: 3

Ok. Well a Dumpster is basically a BOX. And LITTER is a word for trash, so I like that quote a bit.

Not really sure where to go from there COFFEE grounds are somewhat emblematic of trash, I suppose?

cayvie · « **Reply #1369 on:** May 19, 2020, 11:38:33 pm »

Mouse? Living in a dumpster maybe

jotheonah · « **Reply #1370 on:** May 20, 2020, 02:05:03 pm »

let's try Litter first

mail-mi · « **Reply #1371 on:** May 20, 2020, 02:06:30 pm »

Litter is red.

jotheonah · « **Reply #1372 on:** May 20, 2020, 03:17:14 pm »

Swowl · « **Reply #1373 on:** May 20, 2020, 03:19:08 pm »

Box be Red

cayvie · « **Reply #1374 on:** May 20, 2020, 04:03:12 pm »

i can see mouse, i can see coffee

i can also see BACK; i think dumpsters are usually "out back". idk that's probably a reach.
