        How dare you, you cyan flower vase on wheels :) I'm a spiky small yellow watchtower, yay.

          And me? A green butterfly?
          • riidom 5y ago
            Yup. Or a trophy/ a goblet maybe? Not sure if green stands for 1st, 2nd or 3rd price though, up to you to decide :)

  This is fun, and can easily be added as a userscript. I might look to do that a little later.

  This should be pretty easy to make into a userscript if browsers still support that. I haven't checked on that in half a decade or so also i wanted to see mine too
