I alphanumerized and got seven letters but they don't make any sense and don't form any sort of anagram. Am i doing something wrong? Letters in the next spoiler, beware

Are there red and green words in this puzzle? I'm colorblind and I think there must be an extra letter I'm not seeing, I think I might be combining them.

This one's been bugging me for awhile now. I am not making the connection.

I've got 20 (maybe 21) numbers, but I can not for the life of me figure out how to use them.
I also don't get the relevance of the colours.

Rogi, Thanks for listing the colors. I'm color deficient, too, and came up with only 4 colors. I might be able to figure this out now. I think M should allow for color challenged people.
