I know the feeling. Does this mean you won't be doing the corn maze, either?

Alright, now I'm confused. Granted, guessing green was a goof on my part (it was already late at my place and only when I checked the instructions again today I realized green was just part of the firewall colors, not the code itself). So from my previous attempts I'm fairly certain it has to look like "something something something blue" and there is a purple and a yellow in there also, at locations which still have to be determined.

The fourth color obviously isn't green, as there is no green. However, if the fourth color was red, the first try would have 3 colors correct (red, blue and yellow). So no red. Same if the fourth color was yellow (blue, yellow, yellow). So no yellow either. Now if the fourth color was blue, the second try would have all four colors correct instead of three. Therefore no blue. But if the fourth color was purple, the fourth try would have all four correct, so it can't be purple either. Is something like "nothing" or "empty" a valid color?

In that case I'll try: empty yellow purple blue.

That is correct! You're now on the Yellow Firewall! You win 20 Screams, and another Vault hint.

I will doublecheck everything right now. If I made a mistake, I'll graduate you to the next firewall. It's entirely possible I typoed or looked at the wrong code. There is no 'empty' color.

EDIT: I did indeed typo. The first clue was supposed to be 3 colors, not 2.
My deepest apologies, I will be more careful in the future.

Congratulations! The firewall suffered a fatal malfunction. You're now on the Orange Firewall! You win 20 Screams and a Vault hint!

No problem - this way I got to see a completely unique error message no one else has discovered so far ^^

Onward to orange it is then. Trying red red red red.

How do you do this?
