      if you put the copy and paste thing inside of:

      ```

      [paste]

      ```

      I think it fixes the size of line spaces.

        The other option (my preferred option) is to have every line end with two spaces instead of no spaces, but a blank line between paragraphs. The difference is:

        That’s two spaces. This is the triple backtick method:

        Yeah I think that’s an issue with using mobile and apps. I don’t see that key on my keyboard. That’s why I’ve always used the double enter/return key instead.

    Would have been perfect with purple first but accidentally chose “jacks” in lieu of “jackets”.

      hahaha, as a non-American, I have no idea what the red herring you fell for even was. Even knowing what it’s apparently about, I can’t see which words would go in it.

      Spoilers

      Gloves (multiple??) and ball are baseball, I guess? Not sure what else.

        I'm not an American either

        I went ball-gloves-jackets and guessed that either “blocks” or “foils” could be some jargon I wasn’t familiar with. I originally saw “stops” as in “short stop”, but I needed that for green.

    • Purple Didn’t even know what foil was, just guessed things that can be used for covering stuff.
    • Yellow Disregarded final as there are multiple finals not one. And then thought of a ball as in celebration at the graduation or something.

    Ahh! I can’t believe I didn’t get purple properly.

    Spoilers

    Had 3 of them together as “winter wear”, and then tossed “foil” in with them as a leftover

    And I do fencing. HEMA, these days, but I did modern fencing, primarily foil, for 6 years.
