On the Subject of Faulty Colour Flash
Turns out it’s a hit module series...
- A Faulty Colour Flash module displays a sequence of eight words representing colours in different colours at different speeds.
- Each word can be broken down into a number from zero to three, which is the number of RGB components that are different between the word’s colour and the word itself.
- If that word was flashed at a faster speed, then add two to this number.
1 2 3 4 5 1 A B C D E 2 F G H I J 3 L M N O P 4 Q R S T U 5 V W X Y Z - When the eight numbers are split into pairs of two, the resulting pairs can be converted into a letter using Tap Code. Refer to the table to the right.
- When using the table, take the first number in the pair and use it as the row, then use the second number as the column.
- If one or both of the numbers are zero, then that pair represents K.
- Take the letter received from the first two words in the sequence and locate its row in the table below.
- If there is any other module* on the bomb whose name (excluding spaces) contains anything in this row, press Yes.
- Otherwise, press No.
- Now repeat the process with the second two words, the third, and finally the fourth.
- Any incorrect press will cause a strike and clear all correct presses.
