It's not yellow or green, it's a mixture of both. And yellow is used slightly more.

look at that image.
itsa fucking gradient.
yellow is just a more dominant color.

pipes are green.

The real question is why are we asking this, and why do we care, the scary question is are we gay?

It's only scary if you're a homophobe, homophobe.

I'm glad we have a yellow person on the team :)

For anyone who has ever played QWTF they will argue to their death that the pipes are yellow.

I want green=>yellow=>green=>yellow etc. color-shifting pipes. :o

it's already been proven a million times that they're yellow. i never even considered that someone might think they were green.

i think it'd be funny to make it even more ambiguous, though.

THANK YOU!!! Someone else who isn't CRAZY!

They really look like a yellow-green if anything, but definitely closer to yellow than green.

Perhaps we should just make them pink - problem solved!

Funny, from your screenshot I would still call them yellow.

I think the research that has gone into the subject has concluded that they are indeed yellow.

seems that a lot of people have the notion that yellow can only be a vibrant color. they're not ideal yellow, but they're definitely closer to ideal yellow than ideal green.

dark/dirty yellow doesn't make it a different color, it's still yellow.

lol, that was a great thread indeed. Unfortunately, many of the referred links and images are long gone now, although Mr. Ali's pictures remain. For what it's worth, here's the picture I posted (you might need to copy/paste address into your browser):

How about they turn green when someone is in proximity to be blown up? (AUTO DET I KNOW)

I say, make them transparent and blend well with the floor textures making them impossible for opposing teams to see them.

Rotf... making them blend would be funny... "aww crap... I forgot where I laid all my pipes..." *DET* *BOOM* "AHHHHH!!!" "Damn it..." Short term memory loss sucks :(
