Anyway I think this is a key phrase in solving the clue--not sure what it means though.

I was searching each color on google and I took their number of search results. This is what I got (each number has 6 zeroes on the end, i just omitted them here):
blue 795
brown 482
green 776
black 1210
red 1070
orange 313
pink 319
purple 150

If you subtract those then you get -3525, and if you add them you get 5910. I don't know if these mean anything. I'll try messing around with hex or something.

After messing around with the numbers, without much success, there's one thing I notice. When you add up the numbers, if you don't add blue twice, then you get 5115, a palindrome. I think somebody should protect bob3443 just in case, and any other users that have palindromes. Aia is already covered. Somebody else try messing with the numbers, just so we have fresh eyes take a look at it.

I protect bob3443. I'll tell someone if I find something. Maybe it's a sort of pattern.

Alright, I tried eliminating all duplicates of letters. In this instance, epic fail is an understatement. But man alive, the whole search hard for it has me baffled. I hope it's not based off of something that has changed. That just makes things more tedious.

What about the # value of the colors? I know that, for like HTML code and other programming, colors are assigned specific #s... wikipedia should have all of them.
