The elections are a baffling kind of semi-PR which actually works out quite well as long as you don't think about it too much - one vote for a local candidate, one for a party from the regional list, at which point they start comparing the number of constituency MSPs each party has gained to their proportion of the vote, and filling in the biggest gaps with top-up people from the list.
If you mean what they do once they get there, I'm not sure anyone knows ;)
(I think I had orange and purple, but can't remember which was which.)
