I'm still not sure that I get it. Are we supposed to be finding out about the examples you gave in the OP (ie, are we solving riddles about these examples) or are we trying to find out what else is inside the box?

In this puzzle, we're trying to figure out what the inclusion criteria is. There's a rule that he's applying, we have to deduce what it is.

right now I'm investigating whether it has to do with word order or color.

hey guys, if you're drawing any conclusions (like "it's not number of vowels"), post your thoughts-- it'll save us from wasting our guesses testing the same hypothesis.
