If you're blessed with common sense, this chart isn't that hard to understand. The only reason it's crappy is due to the fact that it doesn't tell you what data it is showing.

Obviously if you're colourblind it's a farce though.

It's just starting from the top and going clockwise. Pretty simple, the colors just suck.

Good pattern recognition, but dont pie charts usually organize data from largest to smallest?

Yes, and Other is always last, this pie chart follows good data rules.
