### Mud Clues

- When one or more omni cards are retouched with a color clue, and there are no "new" cards introduced (or, if the only "new" cards introduced are trash), then extra information can be conveyed by what color is chosen. The color chosen should correspond to the slot that they should play.
- This is called a _Muddy Rainbow Choice Tempo Clue_, or just a _Mud Clue_ for short.
- The position of the omni card, counted **from oldest to newest**, corresponds to the ordering of the colors **from right to left**, skipping the cards that are not touched by the color clue (and the known unplayable cards). Furthermore, colors always "wrap around" to the oldest card.
- _Muddy Rainbow Choice Tempo Clues_ may not get single-colored cards.
- An exception to this rule can be made for extremely difficult variants. If the team needs to get a single-colored card for some specific purpose (e.g. to "unlock" another player), and there was not another good way to "get" the card, then it should be clear to everyone what is happening.

### Mud Clues (Skipping Over Unplayable Cards)

- If known-unplayable cards are touched as part of a _Mud Clue_, then they should be skipped over.
- _[Muddy Rainbow Choice Tempo Clues](muddy-rainbow-cocoa-rainbow.mdx#mud-clues)_ ("Mud Clues") are turned on.

- Similar to _Muddy Rainbow Saves_, in the special case of a variant where a one-of-each card color is available (like black), the one-of-each card color should be used instead of red.
