Cool mind trick!

Now where's the 98% gone who'd supposedly think of the red hammer ?

My first thought was hammer and then red. I guess I'm one of the very few normal CFCers...

 

[WillJ]

Damn, that was amazing.

I think all you abnormal folk are just lying.

 

[Zarth]

You know what? The exact same thing happened to me! LOL I also drew a blank and then thought of a saw and then chose blue as its color.

Same thing happened here, only I did think of "hammer" and "red."

Green Torque wrench, followed by cordless power drill.

So I'm insane, nothing new there...

 

[Syterion]

Sorry, red shovel was mine.

Red is also the traditional chinese colour. As much under the old imperial region than under the new single-party regime.

Bah anyway, I've been caught too... I also answered red hammer... despite being Chinese... So it means nothing.

 

[Bluemofia]

IMHO, I think it is just an e-mail to cause debate.

 

[Cuivienen]

Yellow hammer here. I thought yellow, then red, then hammer, so it's safe to say that I didn't think of "red hammer" immediately.

 

[Princeps]

Nope,I don't think culture influence makes difference.It's a test of resistance of hypnogenesis method.IIRC,those instructions are nothing but hypnogene prompts.If you answered Red Hammer,it seems that you're affected.
Now I'm aware of that I'm not strong against persistant persuades.

 

[RedWolf]

Brown Hammer for me.

I guess I'm too practical - usually hammers ARE brown.

I thought that Yellow was considered the "best" colour by Chinese, but it eventually became a colour just for the emperor?

 

[Cuivienen]

I'm pretty sure that, in Chinese culture, red is "good" and white is "evil". Not 100% certain.

Remember, purple was the royal color of the west, but blue, gold and white were often held higher in esteem.

Never heard of white being evil.

The only reason purple was the royal colour was that purple dye was the hardest to produce.
