ROFL  :D :D :D

Sorry, can't help.

I've noticed Pea green gobbles other colours, and so does Ivory. I think it's more suck it and see.
generally opaques are more prone to cannibalism, and the softer the glass the more so.

;D ;D So that makes Petrol really greedy!? ;D
Perhaps glass rods should come with little pacman stickers on - none for spready glass, one for normal, two for greedy and three for just downright gluttonous?
I'm sure there is a resource somewhere - I just can't think where...
Vetro odd moss agate eats things too.

Yes. Cannibalism can be a problem but also a beautiful thing. ;)

I think this is how it is. Opaque colours are softer than transparent colors. Therefore opaque colours tend to swallow transparents. Ivory is one of the softest colours so that one even eats it's companion opaques. The longer you work thebead and the more you heat it, the more hungry the ivory gets.
So work fast if you want to see the pattern!

LOL, no idea, but I like how you're starting to develop a food chain. I wonder what eats petrol green (and which poor glass is at the bottom?)  ;D
