But why is it now gone on the list of colors for this part?

Because there is no such thing as the list of colors of a part. There
are several lists on the catalog page:
(1) available colors = which colors of this part are currently available in stores;
this does not mean that the color actually exists, only that the seller listed
the part in this color.
(2) on wanted lists = which colors of this part are currently specified on wanted
lists; a lot of these colors are wishful thinking on behalf of the potential
buyers.
(3) known colors = which colors are known to exist in set/gear/etc inventories;
these colors have been confirmed to exist and can be traced to their origin.
This list is not exclusive in that parts may still exist in another color in
sets that have not been inventoried, in test runs, in special releases or escapes,
from model shops or unknown other sources.
So as to your question, I assume you are looking at list (1): the color disappears
from this selection whenever there is no-one having this part in this color available
in their shop. They may still have them in their stock rooms and you may still
list an item for sale in this color or place it on your wanted list.
A good indication of whether a part actually exists in a color, is when there
is an actual photo of the part in this color. Either in the catalog or in the
seller's listing. For renders this is mostly true as well, but they may occasionally
exist when a part has never been seen in this color. So if you see listings without
an image, always be aware that it may be wrongly listed.
[p=3626c] does have a single listing (at the time of writing) but no image in
BLY [p=3626c,103] and the wrong color image associated to that listing.

I read on Eurobricks that the BLY plain minifig head only exists as a "factory"
item.
So perhaps it was indeed "illegally" made.
Bummer. Just when I thought I could finally complete several BLY monofigs.

I bought one from a seller here, and when I was going to order one more, it went
out of stock with the seller. He states that he got it from a shipment from a
Legoland in Florida. Don't know how to verify it though???

| There are only a few pearl dark gray (pdg) monofigs out there and claim to have
pdg hands as well. I could not find on BL the original minifigs where these pdg
hands came from.
Any ideas?

| There have been several occasions when I had to place a second order just after
placing one at a store. Sometimes, the system would create a second 'batch'
order and combine it with the first one. The second invoice would usually have
a price + shipping marked as 'TBD'.
At some shops however, the system just creates a second order and charges a new
shipping fee outright.
Are the above preferences set by the store owner?

| Has there ever been a classic space minifig in light gray?
I keep seeing photos of it in MOCs and on sale on eBay but I could not find it
in the BL or BrickSet database.

Looks great! The panels and lines are so clean, it almost does not look like
it was built with Lego.
You should consider posting the instructions - this would sell well!

| | Very disappointed the seasonal calendar dudbt make the cut. I feel They may have
had a better chance if some things had been different. I dont want to use the
term rigged or unfair, but for 1 the Venetian house set got snuck in at the last
minute. Not sure if it would have made a difference if that set wasnt there and
it was the western set instead but theres no way of telling. 2. And this one
Im torn on because I ordered it. But apparently the Clockwork Aquarium set makers
were telling people that if they didnt log in they could order multple sets.
This is kinda shady. And with such a low price point it is definitely doable.
I feel the only way to make this right is to open it up for a sixth set. Let
the next set be made that reaches 3000.

I voted for the calendar and it was my top choice from the list. I understand
why some people don't like it, but I've wanted this from the time it
popped up on Ideas.
One thing I noticed was that this list appears to have had many expensive sets.
Perhaps those who would have ordered the calendar, already ordered the other
sets. Most people only ordered one this time around. Case in point, the Lego
Store modular sold out pretty quick.
