Ok. This issue is definitely because of
Painter's Servant. It seems like it doesn't follow the Color granting rules quite right, and so while the card seems like it's the right color most of the time, it's not the right color when the spell is being cast. I believe we should be able to convert Painters Servant to Static once AddColor is implemented, which might alleviate this scenario.
The Wards are even a bit trickier (and I'm not sure we handle this situation) but if I cast a
White Ward on a creature, and then later give it Protection from White by outside means, the
White Ward would fall off (it only stays on from the Protection from White it's granting).

i ran into another one last night, too. it was fixed pretty fast. it's nice that forge graciously works around the problem. it's also nice that people are monitoring the board to fix these things. thank you.
